Hey there guys, this is my very last work.
It’s a house in a ranch, here in México.
hope you like it!
why newest baby? are you talking about how your new computer renders? btw very nice dof.
Brilliant render. Love the feel and the integration with the landscape. How do you get the varying colours on the tiles?
If I was to be hypercritical (!), I would say that it would be nice to not see a sharp line on the edge of the stone wall.
Concrete column look great.

Hey guys, thank you for commenting 
hehe Yes… i was talking about my latest render :P. really glad you liked the dof
David, thank you for your words. For the roofing tiles i made one of them, made it a component and duplicated it in order to create a line (of tiles)… after putting all of them where they had to be, i added a color to one of them (which applied to all of them because they were a component), and then i just started selecting ramdom tiles with the selection tool of skethup by holding the control Key on my keyboard. After i had selected a few of them, and without diselecting them, i made a secundary clic and went to component, make unique. and then i just added a different color to those selected tiles, which were actually just one because they were a component.
I made the same thing one more time, and in the end i used a base color for all the tiles, and then added a brighter and also a darker color for the first and second selection.
It gave the render a plus i think.
I´ll try to be more carefull next time about details
Thanks for the info. That’s a really neat trick with the tiles, I’ll have to give it a go. I guess it would also work using a texture. In fact, if you had just one large texture, you could position it differently for each of the components, getting variation - but not too much. I like it.
Thanks
David
