I’m usually sharing these mini tuts by iToo Software but pay special attention to this one… The usage showcased here is not something you would normally link with RailClone. This new RailClone tips and tricks episode and preset that comes with it illustrate how the plugin can be used to help quickly populate and iterate interiors. Specifically, the kitchen. You will learn how to make a flexible and reusable kitchen cupboard style that incorporates adjustable worktops, plinths, cabinets, doors, and handles. Enjoy!

Making of House Gepo

Wittaya Wangpuk won best of week 41/2015 with this incredible photo-real 3d recreation of House Gepo by Open Y Office. Wittaya did not try to recreate it 100% like the original, but it sure has the overall look and feel as well as the photographic feel to it. He followed almost every real shot that was made for this house, and today I’m happy to share the making-of this scene. Enjoy!

Phil Buerer is not stranger here, with two best of week awards (BOW 22/2014 and BOW 33/2014) and two articles published as well!

This house was designed by architect Nicos Valsamakis at Anavyssos back in 1963. Cinema 4d, V-Ray for Cinema 4d and Photoshop are the main tools used in this project. Enjoy!
