Making of Z’Axe Boutique
Frank Raymond‘s ‘Z’Axe Boutique’ visual captured my attention for its color, light, composition and for being so rich in details to a point I awarded it the Best Visualization of the Week NO. 32/2014. Starting with SketchUP, Frank takes as through the process of creating this great visual using 3dsmax, V-Ray and Photoshop. Enjoy!
Bauhaus Archiv by Bertrand Benoit
Bertrand Benoit keeps on going with his series of reconstruction of existing architecture. After tackling Salle Labrouste in Paris, France – he went for the Bauhaus Archiv in Berlin! As always, it is all modeled by him using 3dsmax and makes heavy use of iToo Software‘s Forest Pack PRO plugin for 3dsmax. Wonderful inspiration closing this week!
Using Surfaces with Forest Pack Pro
Following the warm reception of the RailClone Tips & Tricks tutorials among users, iToo Software launches a similar initiative for Forest Pack Pro. In the first episode they examine the foundation skills needed for using surfaces, including using camera clipping to cover huge areas with scattered objects and the various falloff controls that allow you to control the density and scale of scattered objects based on altitude and surface angle.
AXIS Viana Hotel by Leandro Silva & ROOM
Two Braga, Portugal based ArchVIZ studios Leandro Silva ARCH.VIZ and the ROOM join forces and showcase their first shared in-house work – The AXIS Viana Hotel by VHM. With this project they explore both photorealistic and conceptual approach to visualization and promise more to come… What do you think? I’ve added references to the real building at the bottom.
