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

    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.

    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...

    What were medieval times journalist-types called?

    Raymond Feist's Daughter/Servant/Mistress of the Empire series had rumormongers in big cities. Mara's spymaster would (when he couldn't get information from his actual spies) seek one out to purchase information. The impression I got was that they were people who collected information and sold...

    Free Fantasy Architecture II (New Stuff 5/3/2005)

    3DS Max is incredibly complicated/complex. Very steep learning curve. Both 3DS and Piranesi can add fog effects, which I haven't really used yet.I have done some stuff with fire effects, and I know you can do volume lighting, where the light looks more solid, like a beam of light (or a...

    And finally, these are the renderings from 3D Studio Max that I brought into Piranesi. These have the complex lighting. However, I did add more torchlight later in Piranesi because I wanted the room to look a little warmer and...uh...torchier.

    A bonus pic of the hallway. This is a picture of how Piranesi sees the depth of the images. I think its nice and moody. Looks like the church at night, when all the ghosts come out.

    Free Fantasy Architecture II (New Stuff 5/3/2005)

    This is an early version. I didn't like the stained glass windows. I have three more views to render. I should get them all by this weekend.
