Just thought I would show you what I'm working on at the moment.

The building is only intended as background for a church model, so it is 
not done with the same level of details, as I usually do, but at this 
distance I think it is passable.

Now I only need to do one more building of the same size, and I'm ready 
to put the scene together. OK, I also need some streets and sidewalks. 
And some trees - perhaps a couple of cars - some streetsigns, maybe...

Wow ...

Very cool.  How about adding some discoloration to the metal
on the roof?  If it's weathered enough to turn green,
you would think that it would have acquired a little bit of
a warmer patina.

It looks really neat.  Don't know what else to say ...

Actually, the colour of the cobber on the real building, 

that I am modelling it from, is very uniform. The cobber part 

under the top row of windows has a bit more variation, but frankly, 

since it is only going to be used as a backdrop for another building,

I don't want to use too much time on details.

Nothing more is needed :)

The talent pool around here is making me want to give up my job and
start working on a POV movie full time.

Regards,
John

I don't know if this is my monitor playing tricks on me, but the bricks seem
to form strange semicircular shapes and they flow in odd patterns... It's
probably all positioned perfectly, but to me the wall-texture appears warped
in odd ways...
but else it looks truely wonderful, certainly for some background thingy

off. I have tried a number of different anti-alias settings but nothing 
helped. Higher resolution helps, as you can see in the attached detail 
image, but I didn't want to post a 2400x1200 image in the news group.

Thank you.

When I saw your name I knew that I would see a very nice model, which is
indeed what happend. It looks a little bit artificial more like a model 
than the real thing, but if I remember correctly, that's what you're after.

Congratulations
Thomas

There were some threads dealing with such antialiasing problems.
For me, Kari Kivisalo presented a convincing solution.
In http://news.povray.org/povray.newusers/23381/ you can find the according
discussion.


Perhaps there will be a time, when you will share the source code with us.

Yes, his technique does seem to give better results, than I was able to 
get with antialiasing alone.

Well, there is not much to be learned from my source. It is just 
thousands of lines of unions and differences of boxes, spheres, planes, 
cylinders, torii and the occasional cone. But if you insists, I am 
willing to post the code for this model. It is 4100+ lines of code, with 
very few comments (and those there are, is in Danish :)

Yes, I do like the hyperrealistic (if that's a word) perfection, that 
only raytracing can produce. If I wanted photorealism, I could use my 
camera, since most of the buildings, I model, exists.
