How I drew a random Venice bridge or in Italian "ponticello" meaning a small pedestrian bridge

...the bridge is a symbol of communication but also peace connecting sides and bringing people together...

I cropped and rectify some photos I recently took that I would use as material for modeling, you never know when it might come in handy... here are a few...

Now to the modeling of the elements, always good to start from the base...

Off to the other one, relatively easy to do just break them down into simple geometric forms

Assembling in arrays...the bridge was just an extruded arch...

and now adding the texture material I cropped before each to its respective element...

and voila!...a top view for my bird lovers...

This is a random photo from the Venice Gran Canal I thought it would be great as a background especially with the "gondoliere" sailing away...

and so here it is...

a side angle view....

and we are all set!
