Very good. nice details, I like the post processing, but I think it could use a little more color, I agree that you should put something in the background. Maybe some treees, or birds or other buildings.
Well, I think the model is amazing. Over 500,000 vertices is BIG accomplishment. Thank you! As far as the image goes, the Sepia is nice and gives it a very period effect.
Woohoo, that’s awesome. Nicely done. In my opinion the post pro really adds to it (when sometimes too much can be a bad thing). I’m surprised you were able to model that much detail based only on the tiny reference photo.
This is really awesome, but I keep getting distracted by the tiling on the ground, because it is far too patterned. Perhaps if you rotated the texture around differently on each tile it would work out. Otherwise, great job.

I try not to use too much post pro, but for this image I just thought that the ‘older look’ would be fitting, I’m glad it does not look too overdone :). For the reference photo, some things I had to think about for awhile in order to make them fit, and some of the things I just changed (like the banners).
watchthis: Thanks, and thank you for the feedback on the mountains.
egan: Thank you, I was hoping that it wouldn’t be that noticeable ;), but I now re-rendered the tiles, rotated/scaled them, and added a couple more variations in the textures (before they had 2 styles, now 4).
Just a small update, changed the tiles so they are not as repetitive.
Check first post…
This is very nice (although I think I like the color version even more). I also think that the ground still looks a bit patterned but maybe I’m too picky, lol. Anyway, keep it up!
I personally love it…I really dont like the color pic though…You should post that over at cgsociety.org…I think you might get this illustration in the gallery there…I would work on the sky a little more and let it render a little longer before posting it there. but great job…
I immediately recognized it as Asakusa Temple, great rendition Otto! I was there less than a month ago
Punk-buster: Asakusa Temple is in Tokyo, Japan numb nutz.
tjjos: Thanks, I guess its preference, I was originally planning color, but I found that post pro added some ‘style’ to it ;).
ttracing2: Thank you, but I think I will refrain from posting on cgsociety for now ;).
Punk_Buster: Not sure I understand, but the mountains were put in for something more to look at.
HouseArrest, Photoguy, & tcrazy: Thank you :).
Woodman5k: Thanks,

That’s awsome, I would’ve loved to have gone to Japan, part of the reason I did this project is because I can’t really go there.

I wish I knew that name sooner, it would have helped with finding bigger reference photos ;), but I am glad that it is easily recognizable. After googling the name though, there are a few things that I missed out on/ changed.
