It's Mies party and I can cry if I want to.

A friendly Archinect Challange:

I was inspired by another part of the internet (that shall not be named) about a fun format that expands your skills and sharpens up some of your abilities.

The format is to pick a subject (Mies!), pick an object and then to model or draw that object.

I choose Mies for orthographic reasons (meaning no nurbs, no Zbrush... SketchUp users can play!).

So... pick a detail, a frame, a window.... whatever! Model it, draw it, paint it, render it and link a picture here.

For my first object, I will be modeling the Mies coffee table.

Less is more and therefore I will be drawing nothing. And not because I am lazy.

Except this isn't really meant to be a contest.

To make... vray.

Rendering now-- Crown Hall facade from memory. Translucent glass is killing me.

Im guessing this is for all the peeps who dont have a job? lol j/k

If I fell into that category Id definitely be modeling some FLW ish....not because I think hes the ish, but b/c I think the details would looks pretty nifty as I have a book of his details. They are the ish.

Forgot to post it.

I like to think I got pretty close even though my render didn't pop like I wanted it too.

But then I would have had to model the whole building. No thanks!

Nice. The only reason for Mies was that everyone could do it from Sketchup to Max to Maya.

I'm guessing yours is in Max?

I cannot for the life of me do anything in Max. I can't even draw a properly chamfered cube. Also, haven't been able to use the z-axis either.

I can murder the hell out of stuff in sketchup, though.
