For sure. I do have some of my drawings posted on my profile if you would like to check them out. I will post them soon though.

very nice renderings. I’ll definately get some of mine posted soon.

maybe we can do it right now…the sooner the better…who want to share their artwork first?…

Thanks for that book, that is great.

This is also a really good tutorial (in four steps) pretty complicated when it gets to the post processing stuff though.

I’ve got a very straight forward manual for 3ds Max called “3ds Max Architectural Visualization.” I use it all the time for reference and unlike most program manuals its very easy to follow. Pretty much covers all the basics. Just follow this link and the password is “dallas”.

David Fano is really good, he worked (works?) at SHoP architects in NY and has started a consulting company that show firms how to implement digital technology.

I am looking for some of your best exemples of rain garden project, rain managment etc. I am in a preparation of a seminar and will enjoy to see what is really happening outside my own practice. Please feel free to share informations and projects….

A year plus ago I attended Richard Scott’s Accurate Freehand Persepective Drawing class in San Francisco and found him to be one of the clearest art teachers I’ve ever had.
