Ever since Cycles debuted as one of the options to render scenes in Blender, a lot of people abandoned external renderers. But, besides Cycles, we have several other renderers that can help an architectural visualization artist. Among architects its quite common to find questions about the compatibility of Blender and V-Ray. Mostly because a lot […]
Here is another great example of architectural visualization from the well-known artist Enrico Cerica and this time, his project uses Blender for almost all 3d models and Octane Render to generate an impressive collection of images. There isn’t much information about the hardware or process used to create the images, but the lighting of the […]
For those of you trying to get some more furniture models to improve your library, I found an excellent 3d model from a sofa that could be used in Blender and rendered with Cycles. The guys from NB Studio shared this sofa model with some cushioning with a high polycount and completed with all textures. […]
There are basically two options to add foliage and trees to any scene in architectural visualization and the first one is by creating 3d tress, which can add a huge amount of data to your project and the other one is by simply use textures. From both options the use of textures is by far […]
To get started with architectural visualization you must first create your own 3d model and setup all materials, and then pick a good renderer to work with. If you just want to test your skills related to rendering and need a full 3d model to work with, I found a free resourse that might be […]
The setup of a certain group of materials sometimes demands a lot of work and tests to find the best combination of nodes, textures and lights. One of those materials is glass, because of their nature we must place some key elements around the scene to reflect over the surface and get a good effect […]
This week we began to offer our first training from Blender 3D Architect, and I`m really satisfied with the support of everyone that already enrolled to the course. And to make the experience of learning architectural visualization even more pleasant I have some great news! I just made a deal with a render farm dedicated […]
The use of video stock footage is not that common for an architectural visualization artist, but it’s never too much to get a free resource for future reference. An art director called Mitch Martinez just released on his web site an incredible collection of 1500 videos in 4k captured with a Red Epic camera. All […]
