Free Fantasy Architecture Part 3 (6/20/08)

It seems like my creativity takes about two or three years to recover from burnout. I've started doing 3D stuff again. Now I'm using Sketchup for the modeling instead of AutoCAD, but I'm still using Piranesi for the rendering.

Here's an evolution of a creepy lighthouse I made for KidCharlemagne. The lighthouse is the only part I modeled. Everything else is just "painted" in.

Here's those same three images before I softened them with blurring and noise. Of course, with these smaller images it's hard to see much of a difference.

Hey Knid, well done. Glad to hear that your creativity has returned. I go through burnout quite often when it comes to mapping in CC2 Pro, and that's a simple program to use for me.

I'll be keeping an eye out for new posts on this thread.

Cheers!

Cool

for organic modelling try MOMENT OF INSPIRATION, or you can get Hexagon form daz3d.com dirt cheap if you join Platinum Club.

I use Vue for scene Renders, and Rhino+Maxwell for model renders (last two are very expensive, sorry).

there IS a high quality renderer that's free, but I'm buggered if I can recall it's name though :/ (not Blender)
