Merry Christmas yall!
Playing with Blender 3D to learn better modeling and texture painting and rendering using Rayscaper!

Had the chance to make more...

I know it is odd to design a facade apart from the plan/building but it has become a norm here. recently I had a facade design suggestion and here is the result.
Changes on the 1st floor has been due to the client.
!

And here is another shot from the Grand Hotel.
.

here is a detail from the painting.

This is rather an old model... Yet I liked the result.

More and behind the scene images

@L-i-am ok, great.
Just modeled it for you
Please let me know if it needs modifications.

@pixelcruncher My pleasure to have my hands on such a charming piece of software. Considering my laptop is rather old, not supporting recent graphic cards and all the computation is done by the processor.
Here are more tries to discover the "coating" layer .

@L-i-am in all of the designs the concept has been to be in harmony with the context. Pebbles, Branches and river, flatness, etc...

I already have shared a few watercolor videos on youtube and I hope you find them handy. Here is one of them ( mute the sound plz):

I was born in a small and beautiful mountainous town called Borujen. At that time it was a lovely and privileged cozy city with beautiful houses and entrance gates that rarely you may find them now.
This one, amongst a few, has remained despite damages and must be as old as the WWI era. (Unfortunately, the porcelain plate indicating the construction date is missing.) They used to be on the gate's top middle, where you now witness a niche.

Over the years each time, I encountered a beautiful hand-drawn sketch, have tried to mimic it in Sketchup and here you will find some of them for free:

A sneak peek:

@Mike-Amos This is the fine potential of RayScaper...only 7 percent of total progress...

I am developing a motel concept and it is in its initial iteration I thought it would be much better to put some of my personalized styles into action.
Some resemble sketching over a built structure thought and I am going to make a selection to present to the client. By the way here is the result.
If interested in grabbing them, I kindly ask you to visit this post:

Last one and a half months I have been busy applying and constantly job hunting living in Solln, Munich. Today I spared some time to make this.

@pixelcruncher it seems that the HDRI image is also pixly, so maybe adding an "upscaling" option to make low-res images, smooth, would be nicen

At this stage, I personally prefer sketchy ones...

Try this also, This is low poly but needs a better texturing:

Here are some more renders of the same model.

Fine render.
Yet time to revise construction codes, tastes, or details... I am wondering why they repeat the same style/material/construction skills... while witnessing that is vulnerable to fire... It is like making iglos in tropical climate, just because I used to iglos....
