Did you ever notice this:
When i think of "medieval" (in architecture, household devices or
devices in general), i automatically think of "decayed, rusty
(sorry... ;-), irregular surfaces, etc." - but that's because
*today*, all things "medieval" are 500+ years old and were mostly
neglected through the last 100+ years. Even better example: roman
/greek ruins.
The funny thing: If i build something that's supposed to look
"medieval" (in the sense of "medieval, viewed at time of
production" instead of "medieval, viewed from modern times"), and
i *don't* make it look "old", it's somehow "unfitting" - or is
this just me? I mean, it's hard to imagine that blacksmiths 500
years ago were told: "Make a horseshoe, but make it rusty and
dented." ;-)
Just some random rant while the renderer ticks away. Maybe i've
visited our town museum one too many times the last week ;-)
Yours,
Markus
