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 […]
A good collection of HDR images can make the difference for an architectural visualization artist, and if you use Blender Cycles a lot I must say that an HDR map can really make the quality of your projects to change. This is why I`m always looking for new HDR maps and with more options I […]
The first thing that comes to mind when we have a project to model is to create everything using polygons, which in some cases can be a bad move. You will end up with a lot of geometry in your model that could be shown using nothing more than textures. That is an extremely good […]
An architectural visualization artist has a lot of tasks during a regular workday, and we can place the “collect new furniture models” on top of the list! If you ever tried to create a project where key furniture was missing, you know how important it may become to build a large library with lots of […]
Lets get started with the new year by growing our texture library with some great inputs from a collection called Texturer. This an interesting texture library for Blender users, and artists using other 3d tools as well, because the terms of use for all textures on the site is really permissive. Well, you can do […]
How do you get the textures for your project? The use of high-resolution textures is important for any architectural visualization project, and an experienced artist knows that having good sources of textures can make the development of any project much easier. I`m always looking for new libraries of textures to use on my projects, or […]
One of the best ways to add people and trees to renders in architectural visualization is with textures. If you manage to find textures with the proper alpha map or with a transparent background, you will be able to add these textures to a plane and use them on your project. This is a much […]
One of the challenges we face every time in architectural visualization is that you have to find or create furniture models that fit the context of your project, in order to give it the correct sense of scale to your 3d model. And for office spaces you should use office furniture. This morning I just […]
