As an architectural visualization artist we have to always try to create photo real images to represent our projects, and to full fill the expectations of our clients. If you use Blender 3D for your architectural visualization projects, you may already asked yourself which one is the best external render for architectural visualization in Blender? […]
The Siggraph of this year showed how strong the real time render technologies will come to the workflow of all 3d artists in a short time. Almost all tools are based on GPU power to render scenes in real time, which will demand even more from the video cards of your computers. One of the […]
One of the new features of the upcoming Blender 3D 2.50 will be the new Smoke simulation tools, which will allow us to work with a mix of particles and procedural clouds to simulate smoke. This is not directly related with architectural visualization, but if we take a closer look on how this feature works, […]
Since I have started to work with Blender 3D for architectural visualization, one of the most common doubts of architects and office managers ask me is about the migration of a complete AutoCAD based workflow to visualize the projects to Blender 3D. They want to edit the project to make the visualization process in Blender […]
There are a lot of cool and revolutionary Technologies showing up from time to time, with the promise to change the way we work and interact with computers. One of those technologies is the multi-touch interface that a lot of us already carry around with your cell phones. A few computers already have it applied […]
The option available to setup glass in YafaRay is great and gives us a lot of flexibility to create several types of glass. A few days ago I showed how to setup colored glass for architecture, and today we will learn the process required to create frosted glass. This is a type of glass with […]
The use of technologies to visualize projects for architecture will go towards real time rendering; I have no doubt of that. After the release of FryRender RT and V-Ray RT, a lot of cool examples and projects that use such technology begin to appear on the internet. Last week I found a great example of […]
As a architectural visualization artist we Will always have to work with the composition of virtual 3d content created with softwares like Blender 3D, and photographs taken from the actual site where our project will come to be build. The composition process of photos and 3d content has a critical point, which is the alignment […]
