HOW CAN I CREATE A BUILDING STARTING FROM A PHOTOGRAPH?
Albert Williams, Cambridge
You can create different materials using the same diffuse texture (the photograph) of the building, in this way you can create glass materials for the windows or brick materials for the walls of the house

I will show you one of the fastest ways to create buildings in Blender. Creating a realistic building in 3D is a long process that requires a lot of practice and experience, as you have to take care of every detail in the production and keep in mind the performance, especially if you are creating buildings for video games. But if you don’t need a lot of details and the purpose of the building is to use it in the background as a secondary element, the solution to speed up the process is to create buildings starting from a photograph. The building shown has been created using just one photograph, without any extra texture, and the only thing you need is a photograph with a high resolution (4K - 8K preferred).
