This technique is used in industry for quick testing of spaces; it has taken me 15 minutes to create the second to last image! (I took my time on the last one ;) )
It can be used to show material quality, lighting, etc., so whether you are designing a building or designing a game try it out!!!Please feel free to leave any suggestions, comments or questions below.
