very nice work. I think i can see a little behind that gigantic watermarks...

Wow Nice job

What's up with that foreground structure and bridge? Are they both CG?

lovely image mate....nice water

shame about the watermarks but it's understandable

[Spikeadeliv]

Watermarks are a bit OTT, but you can never be too careful......

Anyway image is a bit contrived as usual, the viewpoint was hyper critical to get all the elements in exactly the right position.

The bridge and lock gates are exactly as is, as to what is CG and photo, I'll keep you guessing.........

It looks great- forgeground elements are bugging my eyes out a little. I have to agree with the glaring watermarks- turn down that opacity and reposition them a little.

wow beautiful image!!!

i am quiet curious about the style of rendering its got this very artisitic look to it almost surreal
was this all produced using vray or was their post production done in photoshop? can you maybe share ure techniques on creating a more stylized architectural image as this or any sites you know that have tutorials?

thanks in advance and once again beautiful work!

My guess would be that they are layered photos with shadows painted. Nice brick and glass BTW. Got any tips for us on that glass?

Trapezium you are almost right, foreground both cg and photo's.
Photography not very good as usual, so a necessary evil.

A lot of Photoshop work overall as well.

[Trapezium]

I can't tell that they're bad photos. You've done a nice job there making them better than you've described

is there any sites out there that talk about techniques for adding that added flare and sex appeal to images ? i find that the images taht ahve been touched up in photoshop to give a more artistic feel to them are much more powerful when it comes to architectural renderings but tahts jut my opinion i really think its a very nice image.

[percydaman]

Every image I create gets gobs of photoshopping. Alot of it is just bringing together layers and such, but alot is also sexying up the image.

[prey1979]

im just curious about the rendering style and how you go abouts sexying it up, if there where any sites that talk about styles and tool sets etc. for composing this kind of stylish renderings. I just find it adds that more of a personal stylish artists touch to the image we find our clients get to cought up in photorealistic images and have a hard time seeing it as a conceptual building design and then get cought up during construction saying it has changed colours etc. when they are refering to the initial concept image from a year previous.
