Some real beauties here
Nice. This is one of the best ’3d inspiration’ posts I’ve seen.
Totally awesome, you got great talents there.
Nicole,
These were not designed by me. It’s just a collection of the work of other designers.
sooooo beautiful! great creations
Great collection! Sad Street looks just like a photograph!
I have to say seeing these and many other ones not on this site have really made me want to dive into doing 3d renderings. I can really appreciate how realistic some of those things look! My favorite would definitely by the one with the kitchen, amazing!
Yeah, that’s great! I can even imagine, what graphic will be in 5 or 10 years.
wondeful, I love 3D very much!

hey some of them are truly inspirational. 3 pictures went to my “inspiration” folder, thanks for that!
Great inspiration, just makes me want to sit down and let the creative juices flow. I shudder to think about how many hours some of these pieces took to complete.
These are absolutely beautiful. I always try to open up PS and do something like this, but I usually fail. Lol. Just found your site through Google, and wanted to say that I now in love with your blog. I just subscribed and can’t wait until your next post!

If you dig this rendered stuff then you may want to head over to the homepage of the Persistence of Vision project, where they show what you can do with the free POV-Ray software.
