Making of The Museum Field Project by Bertrand Benoit
I’m happy to introduce the making-of Bertrand Benoit‘s ‘The Museum’ 1st Runner Up Winner – ‘The Field Project’. Bertrand takes us through several stations in his process of making his work, starting with the concept and on with how he adds geometric and texture detail to the base model (actually – rebuilds most of it). It is great seeing how Bertrand works his way around a large-scale scene using Maxwell Render, which he previously only used for product shots or small scale single images. I hope youll enjoy this article, learn from it and share your thoughts by commenting at the bottom of this articles page.
LTD_1 by Peter Ruge Architekten
Following up on the “Follow the line” facade style building showcased a couple of weeks back with MAD Architects ‘Absolute Towers’, I’m showcasing today the LTD_1 building designed by Peter Ruge Architekten. I’m gathering several such projects examples in light of the upcoming RailClone update. This one also reminds me a lot of Bertrand’s entry for the RailClone miniCHALLENGE. Should be fun recreating this like that.
