How to: Create HQ images with Blender
Hello,
I read the articles about exporting a home to obj-Format and importing that with Blender - this works so far.

But unfortunately, I am new to Blender and so, I am a "little bit" confused and helpless, so I am asking for some hints to get Blender render my house. I know that I should ask in a Blender forum, but as many of you are posting great pictures, I am hoping that maybe somebody could explain a short "How To".

After importing the obj file in Blender, I see.... nothing more than the default sample cube. Clicking view > toggle quad view, I get the top/front/right view, so my model was imported, but the key problem is: how can I change the camera angle? I tried ctrl-alt-0 to set the current view to the active camera, but I just an empty page as a rendered result.

In addition, when I rotate the 3D model, strange artefacts are displayed, and the model seems to be cut off several edges or some walls get transparent, which changes when rotating. Really strange.

Maybe somebody can help?

Thanks!

Heiko
