well, after a week and a half of drawing rendering an apartment complex i designed for studio, I finally get a breather before tackling the hand-made models all due friday…I’m pretty proud of how these came out so i figured i would share and see what you guys think as i know alot of you mess around with CAD, StudioMAX, and such. the renderings were done with autodesk VIZ ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/focusinprogress/shootme.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/focusinprogress/shootme.jpg) ^took this, turned it into this: ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/focusinprogress/front.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/focusinprogress/front.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/focusinprogress/render1-3dbuildcorner.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/focusinprogress/render1-3dbuildcorner.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/focusinprogress/courtyard2.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v112/focusinprogress/courtyard2.jpg) they could be better, but as far as the time i spent on these they were “quick” and “rough” ---

Looks nice, did you do the design work? Is this for school or real-world work? Only thing I can think of is more contrast betweent the lights and darks. But I have never used those specific rendering programs so I’m unaware of it’s capabilities. Reminds me of some of the time I spent in college taking Architectural Illustation classes. Basically doing what you’re doing but drawing and rendering by hand…fun stuff! ---

this is school work, im a senior at UB for architecture. essentially its real-world work… its for a real site up in toronto on the corner of Spadina ave. and King Street drawing+rendering probably took about 35hrs or so. ---

not bad, assume this is for school since its educational version. I know office buildings are easier since a lot of it is repeat/duplicate. I touched architecture a bit but ended up going mechanical. ---
