Rendering Workshop - Exteriors - Houses

[Al Hart]

This week I thought we might try some exterior models.

Here is a 3D Warehouse collection called "Cool Houses". Grab one of these and see what you can do with it.

Here is a quick sample:

Guidelines
(Actually I grabbed a model which was so well done that there was not much to add. But I'm sure we can do better with a little effort... Also, if might be good to focus on a smaller part of the model like the windows, open areas, or fountain. )

These Workshops are not a contest. People new to rendering can use them to experiment and get feedback and advice from other SCF readers. People with more experience can show us what they can do and demonstrate interesting techniques.

This Workshop is about rendering, not modeling. You can modify the model, add other geometry, add other 3D warehouse items, etc. But keep in mind that we want to see what you can do to make these existing models more presentable.

This is about all aspects of rendering - SketchUp, external add-ons, post processing, PhotoRealistic, and Non-Photorealistic. Feel free to try anything.

Upload you images, your questions, your ideas. Lets see what we can do.

By popular demand I have replaced this Exterior Houses Workshop with a Still Life Workshop.
(You can still upload your Exterior renderings to this Workshop if you have made one)

The Still Life workshop is at: Rendering Workshop - Still Life
