My first tutorial for the good people at Creative Market is now live!
I will walk you through the process of re-creating a poster I call "Structure." We will go through all the steps, from conceptualization to execution.
I used quite a few resources from the Creative Market community along the way. This writeup should give you a glimpse of how versatile they all are.
I hope you'll enjoy the process piece. Until next one, cheers!

At 9:53PM on December 16, 2020 the Los Angeles City Fire Department responded to 20150 W Sunburst St for a reported structure fire.
The first arriving fire companies found a one story, commercial building with fire through the roof and requested additional resources. The 28,556 square foot building, built in 1981, was well involved in fire and a decision was quickly made to transition to a defensive mode.
Truck companies put ladder pipes into operation and firefighters used large diameter hand lines to hit the target from all sides. Crews successfully defended the adjacent structures from sustaining damage.
Ultimately, over 120 firefighters working under the leadership of Assistant Chief Corey Rose achieved a knockdown in one hour and thirty-four minutes. One firefighter was transported to the hospital with serious but non-life threatening burn injuries.
The concrete, tilt-up building sustained heavy damage, to include roof collapse, which left it dangerously vulnerable to further collapse of the walls. Consequently, the Department of Building and Safety red-tagged the structure for safety purposes. Overhaul operations and cause investigation were held off until morning while fire companies remained on scene in a fire watch. The RS3 Robotic Firefighting Vehicle was also on scene to assist with interior operations if needed through the night.

Ambient Occlusion test using the new internal Structure Synth raytracer. (Rendering time: 68s)
I've started working on a simple built-in raytracer in Structure Synth, both for providing fast previews in the GUI, and for people who are intimidated by the somewhat complex template export.
So far it is pretty standard stuff: a single-threaded, Phong shaded based raytracer which uses the Fast Voxel Traversel method to accelerate ray-primitive intersection tests. As of now it supports reflections, transparency, shadows (the hard and ugly type), and adaptive anti-alias. I've also implemented a simple Ambient Occlusion scheme.
Ship Yard Structures, Night. Mare Island Naval Ship Yard, Vallejo, California. March 3, 2012. © Copyright 2012 G Dan Mitchell - all rights reserved.
Night photography of steel towers at the historic Mare Island Naval Ship Yard, Vallejo, California.
It had been a while since I last shot at the Mare Island Naval Ship Yard, one of my favorite places to do night photography. But in early March the opportunity came up to join friends from the Nocturnes, the San Francisco Bay Area night photography group currently celebrating its 20th year. We met in the afternoon for the traditional social stuff - tour of the island, sharing photographs, and pizza - and then headed out after the sun set. (Night photographers are probably the only people who look out the window and mutter, "Ah, its still golden hour. Let's not go out yet..." ;-)
These giant steel towers are among the most iconic structures at the historic ship yard. As I understand it, they were originally part of a system used to move very heavy materials (such as ship engines) from shops to the water's edge. Virtually everyone who photographs here indulges in photographing these towers and even after you have photographed the place as many times as I have they are still a source of interest. Recent work on the island has opened up a section of the water front that was previously off-limits, so it was possible to walk right beside these shell towers as they stretched out toward the water. Working from almost directly beneath them, I lined up a couple of the towers in night darkness, in which the towers were lit by nearby security lights.

This lovely structure was built in 1887 and is located at the northwest end of Capitol Avenue. Capitol, which actually extends north of this building on the other side, connects the front of the Wyoming State Capitol to of the old Union Pacific train depot in downtown Cheyenne.
The edifice was designed by David W. Gibbs and William DuBois, and was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. In 1987 it was designated a National Historic Landmark.
This city is one of the smallest state capitals in the United States with around 60,000 residents.
Without it we are fucked.Getty don't even fucking bother with an invite for this photo,Infact for that matter any other photo on my stream, I'd rather fucking give it away for free.Money grabbing 800 pound gorilla,penny pinching mother fucker.With your contributor services ticket bullshit that takes six months to get an answer from a so called leader in its field,on a simple question regarding image misuse, just fucking grinds people down and your google images deals that fucking line the pockets of multi billion pound corporations and fuck the little guy for $6 or $12 dollar deals,not to mention the penny stock shite that you have been spewing over the last few months with deals that are lower than a snakes balls :)) portal this ,portal that,0.09c to you young man and be happy with it, fuck that,fucking ram it, Keep the fuck away from my shit,Flickr and yahoo,Dump the dodo, and start licensing the flickr collection for yourself,You would clean up and also probably be able to offer decent returns on a licence for a photo,On that note, The new Flickr outlay looks good don't it!!!
Chatham-Kent Fire Service, Station 17 Merlin was toned out for a possible structure fire on Talbot Trail just before 11:30 a.m. on April 26, 2014.
Upon arrival, Station Chief 1701 transmitted a working fire with smoke coming from the eaves, and set up a defensive operation while crews gained entry. 2nd and 3rd alarms were eventually requested, bringing in Station 16 Raleigh South, and Station 19 Tilbury. With heavy fire, heat and smoke crews were evacuated from the vacant residence and again went defensive.
The fire was brought under control using 19-14's aerial stream by 14:40 hours.

Dancing Rabbit is located in a county that has no building codes, which gives members a great deal of leeway in deciding what to build. They do have an environmental covenant that disallows lumber, except for reclaimed lumber and locally harvested wood. Many structures utilize clay taken right out of the ground, often combined with straw bale construction.

The stairs and some characters on the corners.
Using a new aspect (for me) of Structure synth and sunflow here:
- by adding a type to an object we can have sunflow use a specific material.
E.g. I might have a line in a rule like:
{ x -0.45 y -1.55 z -0.2 s 0.1 0.1 3 } box::rail
In sunflow I can get all boxes with this type to use the apricot diffuse material if I use this in the template:
(note additon of type field)
Put it next to the box substitution that is already there.
You will also need to add the material "apricot" near the top of the existing 'begin' substitution (along with the existing material definitions).
E.g.
%%shaders
shader {
name "apricot"
type amb-occ
bright 0.92 0.88 0.65
dark 0 0 0
samples 64
dist 12
}
This way you can get specific rules to use specific materials. (and not just colors).
e.g. glass ends on your pieces.
In the one above i used shiny copper for the characters head, apricot ambioc material for the rails, and gray for the doors. The body and the first square use a diffuse green

Childress, Texas
A severe warned supercell moves east along Highway 287. This storm formed west of Childress in a line of storms, but an embedded supercell was able to form where it tried to produce a tornado several times. In this photo you can see a large wall cloud just to the left of the road.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liverpool_Metropolitan_Cathedral
"The Cathedral is built in concrete with a Portland stone cladding and a lead covering to the roof. Its plan is circular, having a diameter of 195 feet (59 m), with 13 chapels around its perimeter. The shape of the Cathedral is conical, and it is surmounted by a tower in the shape of a truncated cone. The building is supported by 16 boomerang-shaped concrete trusses which are held together by two ring beams, one at the bends of the trusses and the other at their tops. Flying buttresses are attached to the trusses, giving the cathedral its tent-like appearance. Rising from the upper ring beam is a lantern tower, containing windows of stained glass, and at its peak is a crown of pinnacles.
The entrance is at the top of a wide flight of steps leading up from Hope Street. Above the entrance is a large wedge-shaped structure. This acts as a bell tower, the four bells being mounted in rectangular orifices towards the top of the tower. Below these is a geometric relief sculpture, designed by William Mitchell, which includes three crosses. To the sides of the entrance doors are more reliefs in fibreglass by Mitchell, which represent the symbols of the Evangelists. The steps which lead up to the cathedral were only completed in 2003, when a building which obstructed the stairway path was acquired and demolished by developers."
