Here's an image I've been working on.
It's a great building and perfect for pov, I think.
sphere, cyl.
There is an almost awesome program: DesignWorkshop Lite
that is excellent for architectural work.
As I am pretty confident that no women are reading this
I will say this;
getting the proportions has been a bitch.
If there is/are a women reading this...I doubt it...

Yes proportions are very hard! Not having a picture of the building you
mean in front of me I don't know how yours matches up. It looks really
good to me though. One of the things I have found when working with
proportions is that it almost never looks right at the beginning.
However if you have the general shape write, when you add a lot of
detail the proportion problem becomes less noticeable. This is the
reason that simple models are sometimes the hardest, the lack of detail
means you see any proportion problems right away. Anyone else agree?

That's a good idea. But I should register first.

Hate to break it to you but there is at least one woman reading this
group, me. I'm not offended though, they are just words. :)

There is. Don't worry, I've heard a lot worse at work.

Thanks, Steve.
I haven't been doing much in pov except playing with mega0.5.
I posted this to get my a** in gear.
It's a pretty big project and the camera angle I'm aiming for is
from the inside with the light coming thru the 'hole at the top'
(sorry for my arch.tech. talk).
I believe the CA can be contacted at:
cam### [at] inmydreamsorg
I actually got an answer...once.

Your message prompted me to go and have a good look around the net
for a photo of the inside of the Metropolitan Cathedral of Liverpool
which has a stained glass circular tower, the glass goes through all
colours of the rainbow gradually so as the sun moves around the
colour of the light inside changes, it's a beautiful sight to behold.
Alass I couldn't find any images, but I'll keep my eyes opn and if
I find one (taken on the inside) I'll post it here.

Wow, sounds very beautiful and tre cool. Certainly not the
'typical' American image of what is 'Liverpudlian'.

It might be necessary to get in contact with the Liverpool 'chamber
of commerce', but maybe they aren't very 'wired' as yet.
Here's a 1750 painting by some Italian dude of what I'm going for.
I've got the coffers (arch.tech.talk) down, but have found getting
the angle extremely difficult. Maybe it's the magic/lie of painting.

It's going to be very difficult getting your lighting right here, you'll
probably have to use either a lot of ambient (don't do it), or a lot of
area lights, though point lights and fade_povew (or whatever it is),
could possibly be the solution.

Someday, if I ever learn the necessary math, I'd like to design a
coffer-dome based on a tessellation of the hyperbolic plane.
At
http://www.superliminal.com/geometry/hypertes/HyperbolicTesselations.html,
there's a collection of such tesselations, shown in the Poincaré model.
Some of these consist of straight lines running throughout. Project one
of these stereographically to the hemisphere, and you get a set of
arches that meet the plane at a right angle.
Unfortunately, my favorite pattern -- that shown by the blue lines in
http://www.superliminal.com/geometry/hypertes/4_5_trunc0_512x512.gif --
leaves a much bigger hole than the Pantheon analogy allows.

Very cool stuff.
Similar to Circle Packing done in PostScript.
(Unfortunately the Professor who did this work is no longer on
line, last I checked.)
