sea of transquility

[Max Lloyd]

Not my finest work and please, do bare with me. I've not had any reason to incorporate water into any revit scene so far, and whilst there is not a great deal of architectural merit in maritime renderings, I felt that a little excercise like his may pop up a few interesting little challenges.

There is plenty wrong with the image I know, I will (as my parents are keen sailors) spend more time (so far thats 2 hours work, based upon a dwg file, erasing then re-sculpting the sails) modelling the boat, pullpits, winches ropes etc.

If nothing else, I bet its the first and probably last (laying down the gauntlet) seascape on augi?

Keep experimenting Max, its interesting to see what the possibiltes are... Maybe some in place stuff for the water? or make it a calm night and reflective with some stars might be good....

I think that Roger Evans did an underwater view looking up at one of his buildings from beneath a boat and the dangling legs of a swimmer but I couldn't come up with it after a quick search.


Roger?

Not a stormy sea though

I think there were a few other seascape shots (by others) even prior to zoog & these were on RUGI & Alt cad revit

Valiant attempt, Looking forward to the refinement. Outside of Architecture, The Revit/Accurender combination starts to fall apart, although this does NOT mean that the combination cannot achieve the desired end apart from architecture.

However, I have to revisit the amount of work involved versus the image generated versus how much (if any) money will be exchanged if I generate the image constantly. Is is worth $6,000 to a client to spend the time to tweak an image, or will the $500.00 image work? In the seascape quest, the money spent for Dreamscape with 3dsmax will be far more time efficient, and cost efficient for your client. The attached image is just a sampling of the 3dsmax and Dreamscape combination. Everything in this image is computer generated.

Was it you that held the computer's hand while working out what to generate?

It was only after many committee meetings first however. :-D

Sorry - of course it was computer generated. I guess to meet the my honorable colleague's observation I should be a little less generic. In that vein:

The image is a rendering created from a mesh based model with software modifiers based on a dreamscape software generated sky and sun, the geometric meshes having dreamscape software terrain and sea modifiers applied.

I was trying to point out (unsuccessfully) that this image has no Photoshop modifiers applied, nor is this a photomontage.

And another Dreamscape sample:
