Virtual Virtual Reality

A while ago when I was working on my Cartifex project to render the Second Life grid in 3DSMax, I played around with recreating a sim and its builds in Max. I thought it might be an interesting tool for promoting a sim. I did one experiment using the FairChang estate. I was surprised to stumble across a couple of renders from the effort recently and thought I'd share. Having been to the real sims, I find these images a little surreal.

For my new home, I wanted to make use of my bezier lathe tool.
