and I thought my joke was bad.......

My mum did see the photo, she laughed!!

What fritzel did was just plain wrong even inhuman but it seems the higher the controversy...the more jokes are made about it. I am not supporting this monster.

People were texting Michael Jackson jokes half an hour after he died, bad I know, but these things happen.

Here is a WIP of a bar I'm working on. It is due to be placed within an existing listed bank building as an intervention.

Just thought I'd share these preliminary images showing how I integrate the sketchup model into a photograph, or in this case, a series of photographs that make up a panoramic (thats why the edges are all distorted/converging)

I'm gonna be rendering and photoshopping this weekend (:() so should be posting the final images next week.

Let me know what you think!

(The cladding is Woodsorba timber acoustic panels to reduce reverberation within the banking hall)

I am not the architect for this btw, I just did these images.

Raw renders:

And finally in-situ:

Looking through the original bank doors:

Without the door in foreground:

For gods sake, its a joke!!

What provocation a render can instigate, good work smokinbakin!!

I still laugh every time I see it, I know he's a sick and twisted man but the photoshopping was priceless.

I cant delete the post....it doesn't give me the option (the eraser icon is not there)

I think I've got swine flu, need some oinkment

I still cant get over the first photoshopped image, incredible, one of my favourite renders ever! really inspiring stuff

He was a legend, shame he was so weird with children.

I grew up in awe of his spectacular performances and music.

Some of his songs just ooze cool, i get a shiver down my back when I hear Rock With You , RIP big man

fair does, I mean the close up is v convincing but not the images with the building in, i think it may just be the edge where the grass hits the asphalt.....but maybe im wrong!

the photoshopped final images are ridiculous. so convincing. hats off, im impressed big time, beautiful

sorry, i couldn't resist

I actually like the box scene....theres something mysterious about it!

is this where fritzel hangs out?

i wouldn't like to get too close to the edge of that road......flip, flip,crash,burn

how come u modeled all that grass? surely you could use clipmaps and textures to a more convincing effect? The close up looks v good, but i cant see why you modeled it all when its not the focus of the image.......

the lighting and reflections are very realistic....only a couple of things give it away as being a render, very nicely done holmes. I agree with sepo about the block work, it should be very formal and neat (unless you want it to looks cracked/broken) i haven't yet delved into the magical world of vray.....how long has it taken you to get to this stage?

unfortunately did not work.....still cant fake the stainless

Here are some wine glasses too. Not great for close ups, but good for mid-long range images.

Hi,

I've been working on a bar scene, so I made these pint pots and a wine glass in PNG format.

Intended for use with Podium but Im sure they'll render fine in other apps.

Obviously they don't refract any light, but they are good for filling up a scene.

BTW how nice is podium 1.7 blurred reflections/shadows!!

Here is the SKP file with the glasses as 'face-me' components
