saying you actually built the house made me think differently of your model... j/k model looks good, helluva lot better than I can do

In all honesty i was not going to post this model as a WIP, the render was never tweaked .
I did model the whole house to scale as a design to build my new home...the inside is completely modeled also.
This house is the reason I haveb't been on the forum much for the last year.
The photo of the real construction is a couple of months old and the house is very nearly finished , hoping to move in very soon ...yipppeeee!

Tried sending you a PM but your box was full. I will post it here.

Looks like the other old timers have gone on to different things in life. I really miss their work. I still browse the WIP and finnished forums quite often, but hardly ever post there. I seem to be more attracted to the challenge forum for some reason. I cant believe it's been 5 years since I registered here.

Thanks for the kind words! user added image

I agree...get a great render, and print it out on some nice, glossy paper, frame it, and hang it on a wall, like in your front entry room...see how many visitors notice :p

Thanks for the kind words Gamester.
