A House in Downtown Vienna

Hi guys,

I´d like to share a new scene with you. It was originally built for a client, who is currently about to renovate the whole thing. So the original scene in my opinion was far too clean, no dirt on the facade, everything looked too perfect. So I decided to add a little bit of dirt here and there to make it look more realistic.

Second picture shows the terrace that comes with the penthouse (new part of the building, 2 floors are being added on top of the original building. Hope you like it, looking forward to your feedback!



First comments are that it looks good. But…

  • Dirt looks like it has too big a scale and goes up and over the stone, which is not realistic. For something like this you will have to be careful with the UV maps and maybe hand-draw or play around in Gimp/pshop to get them right. Looks fine on the background buildings (although in my view they look to long in the z axis)
  • The facade looks like it is just extruded from the building behind it. Probably just the angle, but it looks odd.
  • The facade is really close to the road, leaving virtually no footpath. Not a major problem since I know sopme places like that, but you may want to play with that.
  • The kerb in front of the garage door is not angled down to the road. I would hate to have to take my car in there and bump over the kerb each time, especially that it looks quite high.
