In the past few days a lot of interesting materials and tutorials have been published about the use of YafaRay and Blender 3D for interior design and architectural visualization. I`m going to point out some great resources that works as examples of artwork created with Blender, and also as a way to learn more about […]
If you are keeping tracking of the posts of the blog, you may be wondering that an architectural visualization artist that uses Blender 3d, will prefer to use an external render engine only, to render images with global illumination techniques. In the near future we may have an interest addition to the Blender internal render, […]
What is required to learn and develop even more your modeling skills? One of the things that I always say in my modeling classes is that we have to balance the technical side of 3d modeling with the artistic side. Even with the advice to balance the focus of the modeling, my students often leave […]
One of the advantages that Blender 3D offers to architectural visualization artists, is the possibility to create interactive 3d applications, to show visualization projects with no need of coding. The Blender 3D game engine is a great help in this area, because we can create two products with the same 3d model. The same model […]
If you are planning to use LuxRender as your main external render engine to produce architectural visualization, you really have to learn and apply light groups to your design process. Actually this is a quite simple feature of LuxRender, which can produce amazing results to artists that need different versions of a render, like a […]
In the last articles here in the blog, I’m talking a lot about the advantages and uses of external render engines used with Blender 3D. I have to say that I really like to use those render engines, and today very few renders are created entirely with the Blender internal render. But, it doesn’t mean […]
If you use Linux to create architectural visualization or develop architectural projects, how can you define your workflow? I have to say that I don’t know much architects or companies that have a workflow for develop architectural visualization or projects, based on Linux machines. Some of that is related to the fact that in colleges […]
The correct and efficient use of solar energy to warm and illuminate environments is even important for architectural projects. Last week I was talking with a friend of mine, who asks me about a way to project the sun position in Blender 3D, to show a client the position of the sun in different periods […]
