Presentation Experiments

[Roger Evans]

None of these methods are definitive ~ all just experimental & could do with more work
most images are very old and some have been posted before.

Lots of avenues here to digress and vary presentations

The aim is to give a strong image or try & soften Revit Model (Hence my recent posts on subject of Sketch Up)

I'd like to see all and any experiments anyone wants to post

Nice work Roger. Thanks for sharing those. You may wish to give some details on how these were done at some stage ?


Looking forward to seeing similar "experiments" from others as well.

Here is one of my experiments with a revit model and Piranesi. I've only had a few hours to spare to work with Piranesi but I am really liking what can be produced very quickly.

Nice watercolour effect Joe.

Piranesi and Revit go well together.

Nice Work!
Could u please tell me how these presentations can be done?

Nice work, Roger.

I've seen the blue tinted one before but can you remind us how you did that one please.

[Roger Evans]

Pete it was so long ago (3.1 days I think) I have problems remembering exactly
I think method was described on RUGI

Image 1 BlueTint
Obviously bluetint applied after in paint prog but I think I grey scaled first

1 Plan was rendered saved & imported as Jpeg Background for top 3D axo /
2 Rendered again saved & imported as jpeg Background for bottom 3D axo

So it gave the layered effect.

You could probably do the same in Photoshop or Corel ~ but I don't have that so hence all Accurender.
Image method was produced / intended for sales brochures

Image 2
Ultra simple ~ eg Ground plane material set as White Cladding
Background Image anything you want ~ in this case a render / screen capture of grass ground plane saved as jpeg ~ then grey scaled ~ then inverted (reverse Neg) colours to give charcoal effect
(you can tint any colour as well)

Image 3 : Composite details
Just playing around & inverting colours & grey scaling images etc

Image 4 : Site Plan
I rediscovered this last week after client contact (I thought it was a dead job)

Ultra simple ( I think this technique has most potential especially for coloured pencil)
hand drawn scan of jpeg site plan / here coloured in paint prog for grass / boundaries etc / imported as background & scaled up.

Thought I'd follow on the Sketch Up discussion by posting these Revit experiments with Material Transparency.
Walls & Columns set at default ~ Material White Linen at 0% (solid) ~ 25% ~ & 75%
Curved walls & furniture set as solid.

Additional Decals / Light fittings etc would liven the images up further and would be worth doing ~ but at the time these proved themselves useful enough to explain the design to the client.

[beegee]

Nice loose sketchy effects Roger. I like it.
Reasonably fast to achieve ?

[Roger Evans]

Yes if you set same material for the majority ~ that way you only have to tweak one material ~ but you can get nice contrasts with say 2 or more colours.

The plan example here is different method completely ~ also is a reverse negative ~ gets to be fun trying to predict colours so a lot of it is happy accidents
