I’m making a basic Pantheon architecture model based on the one in Roman Pantheon. The model is for a school project, so perfection is not needed. I need a good basic design that convey the feeling of seeing the original Pantheon. What do you think? I modeled the mesh in Blender in a few hours. I will add more details later.
This is some excellent modelling!
The only thing that catches my eye are the pillars in the front of the building. In my opinion, the capitals(if I can remember the terms correctly) are popping out from the porch, and more than what is necessary. (This might just be me.)
Other than this, I’m really looking forward to the completion of your project. Are you planning to add textures, sooner or later?
That’s a very impressive building (although many years since I was there) and your model is looking great.
I agree. The pantheon is an impressive building and one of the must see sights in Rome.
Now back to topic: I think the model is ok for the intended purpose although I’m not sure if the proportions are quite right (might be the perspective). You might want to check some reference pictures for the proportions (Ref1 and Ref2).
What I noticed is that the lower of the two rings on the outer facade is in the wrong position. It should be on the same height as the beginning of the columns capitals. It would also be nice if the capitals of the column would show some more details.
Awesome. As far as I can tell the proportions are spot on, but check the references that PTKS provided. For the finished render, make sure you get the “huge” factor rubbed in, because I’ve been there, and it was…well, huge. I mean don’t take some weird shot from a helicopter, get one from the courtyard in front looking at the entryway and stuff like that.
I read everybody messages. Thank you for the replies. I plan to add texture and 3 other buildings to get a ground level view to the sky. I also plan to animate it.
It’s for a school project. My motivation is “Why not and do it.”, while challenging myself . So this might be a continous project.

I will detail the columns later and at some point work in the entrance area.
to justify its scale id suggest people. inside you should be able to model the tombs fairly quickly and it would make a great aesthetic detail.
I will add statues and people after I hand in the model copy printed to the professor. I’m a novice when it comes to people. Unless someone has a model of a person I could put the model in.
