This is the Al Khamis Mosque, it’s over a thousand years old, I was commissioned to rebuild the old Mosque to show how it looked at that time, so this is only how I saw it with the information available. I worked with historians, studied the left over structures, and had experts that know how the old buildings used to be build at that time. This was build on Modo, Lightwave, and ZBrush, the time was about two months with the animations, the animations are five different times of the day, it is the five calls for prayer for Islam. Hope you enjoy!!

I will put up the links soon.. [more here](http://muharraqi-studios.com/muharraqi.php?pn=105) [](http://muharraqi-studios.com/muharraqi.php?pn=105)

This is an excellent post. Awesome! Can you tell us some more about what you did with zbrush etc, this is really interesting to me, having an art background, but on the other hand having an architectural drawing background too (autocad, sketch up, all this stuff and lot of pencils, inks, not so young you see)

Update, I see now, just beautiful.

Big thanks :slight_smile: and it’s always nice to meet other artists here…

Well sure I will share these details with you… in the next few :slight_smile:

I love ZB… and it’s ability to allow me to create content from nothing… or from something… here I used it to sculpt the details on the walls, like the columns, ground, tree details… there is a bit of ZB everywhere…

In the old day I used to just think that ZB is good for my monsters etc. :), now its for anything…

Hi! Night doesn’t work in my opinion. And also the animations of the bushes and palm trees can be better/looser. Some depth of field lens blur would make it better.

I like these renders here :+1:

Thats awesome!! Did you render out of lightwave or just use it for modeling?
