The 40th Annual Ken Roberts Memorial Delineation Competition is now accepting your submissions. This is one of my favorite competitions because of the wide range of styles and techniques that win each year. It is open to students and professionals and can be either a physical submission, digital illustration, or hybrid media. I was lucky enough to be one of three jurors last year and was blown away by the art that I saw. I came away from the experience with a lot of inspiration and motivation to keep experimenting.
This year’s competition includes a stellar list of jurors including Frank Ching (I own two of his books as do probably most architecture students and professionals), Thomas Sériès who is the founder of Labtop, and Clifford Welch who is the owner of Welch Architecture.
The submission deadline is October 27th, 2014 5pm CST. Winners will be announced Thursday, November 20th, 2014 6pm CST.
Below are some of the winners from last year. Be sure to also visit the KRob website and thumb through the past winners. There is some real beautiful work and inspiration hidden away in the archives. Good Luck!

@Alex
I don't know where to begin, but your blog is literally a goldmine. It is so nice to know there are people out there willing to share their valuable knowledge. I'm pretty sure karma will reward you, lol.
Btw, regarding this tutorial : http://www.alexhogrefe.com/blog/2013/7/21/theater-update-2.html
I was wondering how you were able to render a floor plan, with no prospective in it at all. We all know that is one of Sketchup's problems. I actually could not render a 1st floor on Kerkythia either, same workflow as sketchup. How can I get the same effect as you ?
Thanks a lot.
@Alexander,
In sketchup, you can go to "Camera>Parallel Projection" to turn off the perspective. Then, import into Kerkythea. Once in Kerkythea, you will most likely have to zoom way out to get the imported geometry into view. For some reason, when you import a model in parallel projection into Kerkythea, the camera imports really zoomed in. However, since it is parallel projection, everything will still line up with sketchup exports even after zooming out. Hope this helps
This post is exciting.
