The external exercise area. The outside pool only lasted a hundred years, probably because of the British weather.

Another version of the basilica done as a lighting test. That Roman green glass and the red walls must have made for an interesting atmosphere! Ignore the gold leafed capitols, that was Pete, our modeler, getting carried away!

Hi Mak,

I think you've done a great job replicating the environment of a bath or basilica. One thing to consider if you're going for architectural accuracy is that the basilica may likely have had coffered ceilings. Most large public buildings had coffering, if even just simple wood with painted plaster, and not visible support beams. I would check out Roman Woodworking by Roger Ulrich (2007, Yale University Press) for more information.

Mac, how do you make these excellent reconstructions? What software/programmes?

We use Cinema 4D for modeling and rendering and Poser for the figures that are then imported into C4D. I create textures in Photoshop, which is also used to do some post work.

Many thanks,

Mak
