You might want to add a shelf in the ladies room...where they can set their purses...come to think of it, where was that girl storing that lipstick she's applying, 'cause I don't see any pockets? Unless she.....never mind Nice images, as usual.

great stuff jason, your work's gone to the next level!!

...nothing earth-shattering here, just more of the same...but here is phase 2 of the project. the aerial view didnt come out so hot was in a rush and couldnt get it quite right. [image: wi04_phase2_v1.jpg] [image: d6sS_phase2_v2.jpg] [image: Kzl0_phase2_v3.jpg]

I don't think I ever posted the updates we did for the hotel that is the anchor of this project, but that portion is done so figured I'd post the photos, along with a render of the front.

Veeeery nice! The scene has an ominous feel to it... intended or not, I dig it.

Thanks everyone. The client offered to buy Colimo so I of course couldn't say no to that. Pete, I will definitely let you know if I have any questions.

FMAK is pretty awesome, and it works alright, but I guess a lot of small segments are a pain. Actually the profile should run perpendicular to path. FMAK is probably an OK fake in such a case. Extrude edges by rails is more accurate. When I did it it looked good, and the profile was the correct cross section as it continues up the stairs. [EDIT: I made two paths based on two planes. There was a minute misalignment with the stair wall, which was fixable, and may be due to operator error, making the paths.] [image: fVbu_Screenshot2012-11-13at2.26.23PM.png] In the end. what do you use? A Flexi-molding which is of course not geometrically perfect either.

Excellent work as always!

Something in NPR convinces me....I so like it... nice job. We used to do something like this many years back when there were no computers. Works like these are treasures to keep.

lovin the fridge. reminds me of a communal apartment or group home

Jason, I realize you posted the Police Precinct some time ago but as I recently joined I have just run into them. This is great set design work. I was interested in how you go from SU models and renderings to plans for the construction crew to build from. You've got a seriously impressive set (75'x150'!)which then needed to be translated into the real world. I did see that you said your SU model was used to resolve questions on the complicated ceiling construction which made me think that maybe they were not using your model to create the construction plans. I currently started using SU and Layout to create set designs / plans / and renderings but I am very interested in how you work and what you do after your rendering stage. Also, seeing as this was months ago I thought you could say what show it was for as I would love to see the final footage and how the set came out on camera. Cheers, Tim Larsen

thanks guys.. appreciate it.

I've definitely gotten a bit 'bloom' happy lately...not sure why. Maybe because I'm late to the game and just discovered it..haha. Agreed on that chick.. she was a rush job to get in there the first time and for whatever reason, I didn't replace her

very cool! and def makes sense to do that with new construction.

@daniel said: Nice renderings, as usual, Jason. I've always been an advocate of including entourage in architectural renderings; in this case I think the problem is with these particular people - they don't seem to fit the scene of a practically empty ballroom. maybe a few wait staff setting tables. Smart!!!!

beautiful!

You're most welcome. Been using it for years -most handy. I owe whomever made it a pint.
