skala67 Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Well here we go again, The dreaded dressing of the pig, also in some cultures known as polishing a turd... (making a boring/benign design look good.) Unfortunately that is the case with many projects in the AZ desert. Stucco with Spanish tile roof. This project will be the remodel of the sales office at a larger apartment/condo complex. Here are two views of the pre-dressed pig. Insert apple, set oven to 300 F and slow cook for a week, with periodic phone calls and updates. cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stylEmon Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 what, you dont like brown paint and spanish tile roofs..?!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Hunt Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 The proportions of the building are all wrong (out of your hand I suppose). With a bit of direct sun that turd will sparkle We have a saying in the office ,"Tree it up" basically if a design is so unresolved or just plan ugly we cover it over with trees. Although in a desert that wont help much jhv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stylEmon Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 in the desert we say, "Palo Verde it up" LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skala67 Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 yes we will be adding all the shine we can.... - Trees (i am sure a palo verde will find its way in there) , - good contrasting sunlight, - cars, - maybe people, not quite sure yet on that one. The proportions do look a little off, but there is a two story condo attached to the smaller building which will be shown along with the surrounding buildings. we may even get a glimpse of the pool area!! lol We shall see what bells and whistles we can pull off. We are goin Cinema 4D with Vray on this one. i will keep you posted. I was thinking...Maybe there is a possibility of making this an interactive one with this community. Within reason... When it gets goin, we will gladly listen to whatever you guys throw out there to add. Lets make this the prettiest pig out there. Blue Ribbon at the Fair baby!!! cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyElNino Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 The dreaded dressing of the pig, also in some cultures known as polishing a turd... (making a boring/benign design look good.) Its called: 'Putting lipstick on a gorilla' in our office... (courtesy of STRAT, original reference unknown!) Good to see someone using C4D with VRay, few and far between on this site...
