Church congregation

[Anonymous]

am designing a church and i need a GD L object that i can easily use to represent a church congregation of a big number seated or standing in prayer..., any help will be highly appreciated.

you could try something like ArchiPuppet here
However the poly count would get high. It might be easier for you to add the people as images in photoshop?

Did you take your camera with you to church this morning?

thanks alot, but how do i work this out in photoshop with respect to my design for main auditorium and gallary seating?

What do you EXACTLY want to do?

1. Show the congregation in prayer in a rendering of the hall

2. Show the figures in your construction documents

?

If 1, Erika's advice is the best. I would make the billboards using ArchiFacade and place them accordingly. Yes, quite bit of work ... You can do the same for Artlantis.

If 2, use the 2D outlines of people to illustrate the relationship of the seated/standing people and the space designed.
