This is the starting image . We where tasked to Correct its , and edit out parts so it would be suitable for a texture and seen as a clean image . 

Firstly we used things like the ruler  just to identify areas which where out of perspective , which would allow us to see things that needed to be changed like the windows sills levels and the doors and pavement.  This would be extremely hand when it comes  manipulating an image as it gives us something to base the building on and makes sure we keep every thing even. The way that I used to re form the building to it could be a bit more even was too use transform and skew, which ment the image could be bended twisted and reformed but keep its composure

By using tools such as the , pen tool . Healing brush tool and stamp tool. This allowed the image to easily be manipulated.  Using things like the stamp tool and healing brush was useful to patch up small defections which did not suit my ideal image , while the pen tool was extremely useful to grab large sections and apply  Content aware fill.

Example of some changes . 

This will come in handy later when looking for textures or just for photo manipulation being able to clean up an image cleanly and fast , so no time will be wasted .  Also the ending results are quite natural looking and  the changes that can be made are quite limitless, as with these techniques you could add more windows form another building or so.

Google maps

We used Google maps to get some images of streets with street view. which would be useful for references. and also texture hunting .
This would be handy later on in the project when we ave to design a street.
And will also be an effective way to get textures and  quick references if you know where too look or where you want , and could also leed to happy accidents stumbling on things which will come in hand y for later
These could be helpful  to get a good perspective.

Brick wall

1. Pick 2 colours for foreground and back ground , Contrasting or Stone like ( i picked a light and dark gray)

2. Go to Filter > Render Clouds

3.Add Noise  3%

4.Channels , Add channel

5.  Filter > Difference Cloud

6. Add Noise 3%

Back to layer

make sure the layer is unlocked
7. Filter > Render > Add lightning effect.

You should end up with something like this.



Create a new layer and add the stone/brick  you just made onto it.
Duplicate and edit so theirs a line of different looking bricks.

ways you can do this, is by playing with the properties , and changing the lights and brightness.

This process would be a helpful for future use , when i need to produce quick hard  surfaces which will be handy , because of a future project which will requite us to create a 3d model street

Street View

Today we where tasked with taking as many pictures as we could to assist us with 3d modelling a street view.
We took images of textures on walls , floors, windows, perspectives and

These images show perspective's which all interested me ,  and would be useful to help piece  together

Box

go into create
Crate a box

go into modify and select editable poly
go into the sub object menu and select inset tool
make sure the faces are selected on the

• Select Object

Selects objects, highlighting them

• Select by name 

Sorts items by name making  it easy to select different objects via name , useful when their are lots of objects

• Rectangular selection tool

Creates a box which will select anything within it

• circular"

Creates a circular selection, selects anything within

• fence"
• lasso"
• paint"
• window crossing

toggles between being able to select an object by it being slightly within  selection, and being fully within selection.

• select and move

Creates a X,Y,Z axis which lets you move the object

• select and rotate

Creates a similar thing as the " Select and move" this rotates the objects in multiple directions

• Select and uniform scale

Squashes and manipulates the form of the object
