Lots of guess work on this one. I am not happy with the results, but as of yet, I have not felt inspired on how to fix what bothers me. The temple itself is pretty good, It’s the Landscaping I am unhappy with.

Cali Colombia Temple model and video
I have a video for you today, this time of the Cali Colombia temple. As with pretty much all the temples where just a render has been released, this is an estimate of what the full temple looks like. It’s really just a guess, and I will have to update it later. Enjoy!
Bacolod Philipinnes Temple model and video
Pushing along on my efforts to catch up with the Church, Today I have a first draft for the Bacolod Philippines Temple. Like most of my models lately, this is a really rough first draft, with the landscaping being mostly guess work.
Farmington New Mexico Temple model and Video
I have felt rather productive this week. I finished off Farmington, and have made excellent progress on a couple of others. This one was nice, I was able to work from some documents that have moved into the public domain to make the surrounding area look more authentic.
I made an effort to dig into the detailing on the exterior. The renders are often fuzzy, but I worked hard to get the carvings looking as correct as possible.

Neiafu Tonga Temple, an updated Video
I have created an updated model for my Neiafu Tonga Temple. This model utilizes the same floor plan that I now know Nairobi Kenya Temple uses, which is narrower back to front than my initial model was.
Belo Horizonte Brazil Temple model and video
This was an interesting temple to model. I’m completely guessing on the grounds, but I think the temple itself is fascinating in design. Loved modeling this video. But I am going to have to redo it when I learn more about the actual landscaping and design.
Update for Yorba Linda California Temple video
A month or so back, the Church released an updated render for the Yorba Linda Temple. The change was necessitated by a request from the city to lower the height of the steeple. This the Church complied with, and the design for the temple went from a post-modern design with Art-deco and Spanish influences to a modern design with Spanish influences with just a few simple changes.
I’m not entirely sold on the new design, I am not certain the massing of the spire is appropriate for the overall building, but I am sure the architect did what he could with the restrictions they were working under. And there is the distinct possibility that I am entirely missing aspects of the design that make it work better.
Freetown Sierra Leone Temple video
I have a video for you today of the Freetown Sierra Leone Temple, currently under construction. This video is based upon the official render, released some months ago by the Church. As such, much of the area around the temple, and some of the temple itself, ar pure guesswork.
Bahía Blanca Argentina Temple model and video
This is a rare type of video for me. When I first sat down to model the Bahía Blanca Argentina Temple, I ended up doing pretty much the whole temple in one shot. Earlier this week, I decided I would sit down and mock up some terrain for it, and move it straight to video. Hope you enjoy it!
Yorba Linda California Temple video
Well, I’m slowly working through all of these temple models I need to finish. There are a bunch now, and I have been focusing on other projects. But, here is the model for Yorba Linda California Temple.
I want to make it clear, this is guesswork. I don’t know what the landscaping will look like, I just kind of made it up. I fully expect I will have to redo this once more info comes out.
