Some more watercolors or old school visualizations.

I have slipped in one image from Dennis' original "faked" watercolor technique images from SketchUp back in SU5 or SU6 days. :ugeek:

A very nice collection. Would you mind please adding some images from my university era legend, Thomas W Schaller?

Ah yes, Majid - thanks for the reminder of Schaller's work!
Here's a link to Thomas Schaller's website, I don't have anything on my hard drive. :(

Thank you, Fletch,
Can't wait anymore for more images of his works...
P.S. I wrote him via Linkedin and he kindly accepted to send me a few samples so that I upload them here.

It seems that is an upload restriction so I have to upload 3 images eachtime.
