Architecture : an old house courtyard

[pradipta]

Hi everybody,

 

 

after a long time, i am back again. this time with a model of a courtyard of an old

house. modeling is done in 3ds max 5 and test rendered using only two lights. i'll texture it from tomorrow with proper light setup.

 

need advice on the design, it's based on a ref picture but i modified the design a lot.

 

thanks in advance for ur comments

Looks fantastic, the only thing I wonder about is the spiral sidewalls on the main stairs on the ground level, great modeling, can't wait to see the textured version.

hi ...TheAllusionist ,

 

thanks for your comments, here is another render with some changes in the design part, started texturing, also made the light etup more intense just like what happens in a hot summer mid day.

I have an old house. How come it doesn't look like yours?

 

Designwise, The only thing that jumps out at me is the placement of the columns--set back from the facia. I would expect them to be more flush, so the capital would project a bit. But what you have done is probably true to the original house, so I wouldn't change it.

 

I prefer the renders before the textures. The textures are way overthe top. Too big, too mottled, too distracting. The viewpoint is too symetrical for my tastes, try going a little to the right, straighten a bit on the elevation with the stairs.

 

Great modeling!

Have to agree with Ernest on the texturing-Way too distracting, it hides the great model. Also, I think I like the first image the best in terms of lighting.

Great Modeling

as i lived 20 years in India your texturing is accurate i guess

still it looks dirty i would try to make it look

fresh (or alomost)and clean
