As mentioned it the March 2010 newsletter, April is the month for the GH House articles to be posted and I’m very happy to bring you the first article by the challenge’s Honorable Mention Award winner, Anton Cherenko. I really loved the fact Anton showed the back side of the GH House, a side not so explored during the challenge. I hope you’ll enjoy this article, learn from it and share your thoughts by commenting at the bottom of this article’s page.

I stumbled upon Scott Baumberger’s website today and found these very nice making of slide-shows he made about his ‘Digital Watercolor’ technique using SketchUP and a 3d model as a base for a 2d photoshop workflow to create a watercolor style illustration. Very interesting to see the his process.
Bertrand posted a cool how-to article about the process of creating a 2d displacement texture map, including a reflection / glossiness map too. Make sure to check his Frank Gehry Titanium Scales article at his blog. This method can easily be expanded to other 3d elements such as roof shingles, water drops on window, rope strands, pavement, etc. instead of actually using 3d models inside the scene
Roberto De Rose from State of Art studio posted his great ‘Maison Hermes’ image at the forum not long ago. I was very impressed with that 3d rendering of Renzo Piano’s building and asked him to share with us how he created it. I hope you’ll enjoy this article and learn from it as much as I did!
