Christiaan Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Do you think it's possible to create trees like this in VW? Quote Link to comment
unearthed Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Are these trees to be 2D billboard type or 3D trees? Quote Link to comment
Kizza Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Image prop? You could create a VW Plant (Landmark) but you still need an image prop for the 3D component. Quote Link to comment
VincentCuclair Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 C. I was going to suggest Dieters stuff but his homepage doesn't seem to work anymore..... www.dworks.be I seem to recall he had created some similar visualization symbols. (My bro is a professional illustrator try him, www.kukler.com, for the props :grin:) Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Pickup Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 are the isymbols close? http://www.isymbol.eu/elevation/vectorworks/vectorworks-elevation-bundle.html Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 Those are nice Jonathan but too detailed for what we're after. Might have to make our own image props if I can't find Dieter's. Thanks guys. Quote Link to comment
VincentCuclair Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Perhaps you could use 3D blobs (irregular volumes) add a green color and render?! Quote Link to comment
VincentCuclair Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) I don't know if this is just available in designer but I found these 2D props: Edited June 27, 2014 by Vincent C Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 That's a shame, yeah only available in Designer (and perhaps Landmark). Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted June 27, 2014 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted June 27, 2014 I am pretty sure everyone above is familiar with how to create Image Props, but in case anyone coming across this thread is not: http://www.vectorworks.net/training/getting-started-guides/renderworks/Gsg-2014-r06-creating-image-props.php Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 Here's some more graphics I'm interested in. How do you think this is done. In an illustrator/photoshop? Or rendered? Or somewhere in between, like VW stipple. Quote Link to comment
Kizza Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 My guess would be in photoshop with an image overlay for the grass on it's own layer and the unwanted parts erased. This can be done very loosely with a hard brush then using a soft brush for the edges.... Quote Link to comment
jmartinarch Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Christiaan Those site plans look like they could have been done in PowerCadd. It has some pretty good illustration tools for 2d. Quote Link to comment
Dieter @ DWorks Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I never had any symbols like that. I have used those that come with VW once long ago, the ones Vincent C talks about. I do have made 3D trees myself for fast rendering, but they don't render like that. The best option for those trees are image props. Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 Christiaan Those site plans look like they could have been done in PowerCadd. It has some pretty good illustration tools for 2d. A CAD tool better than Vectorworks at 2D non-realistic illustration? That's interesting. Quote Link to comment
Guest Wes Gardner Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Here's some plan view stuff Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 Is that VW or PowerCadd Wes? Quote Link to comment
Guest Wes Gardner Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 @Christiaan - it's all Vectorworks...I've taken some of our stock stuff and added color, gradient, etc. I'll happily share... Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted July 4, 2014 Author Share Posted July 4, 2014 Gotcha, thanks, Landscape or Designer though right? Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 A colleague made a nice job of making our own in Photoshop. You're welcome to use them: https://techboard.vectorworks.net/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=199914 Quote Link to comment
