As a guy that ends up translating all these neat drawings into reality I have to say that Jody's drawing is the easiest to work from and figure out pricing. I also think that if you are selling a job to us "baby boomers" the old school commands much more respect in the LA's abilities. Nick's drawings look great but older guys figure that computer graphics are "easy" and anyone can do it. (I know that is not the case). Older folks think that you just got a $35.00 program at Office Depot and went at it. I think the younger generation is more in tune with this type of presentation.
I think the problem with the photo realistic presentation is that the client expects it to look just like the photo. And this rarely happens! The materials used never exactly look like the picture and construction constraints can't always follow the picture.
With drawings like Jody's a lot of things are left to the imagination and the little details and materials arn't so precisely rendered making it much easier to build without the client saying "that stone isn't the pink in the picture".
Not meant to offend but just the way I see it.
By the way Nick your design of the information board is ingenious. I love it.
