If you want something clean, you will start with lots of white and shades of light gray. How much can you change a project using textures? Do you […]
With the release of Blender 2.8 beta we started to see a lot more artists trying to work with Eevee for architectural visualization, and the benefits of buying Eevee worth the investment. You can create realistic images that render in a couple of seconds instead of several minutes with Cycles. Here is another impressive interior […]
When you start to study architecture, you will find several types and periods that will require some additional skills to create in 3D. For instance, working with projects from the modernist period with lots of glass, plain concrete surfaces might demand just a couple minutes to produce. Some other styles like the Baroque will demand […]
Despite having a great selection of open source renderers available for artists using Blender, you can also get a reasonably vast selection of commercial tools.
