I was bored a few weeks ago, so I decided to sketchup every block of downtown Regina.

Of course, I finished two blocks and stopped due to laziness :P Here's what I made so far.

I tried sketchup. I suck at it. I was better at GMax, but you can't get that anymore because corporations suck. :(

I think it's safe to say you don't suck at sketchup. Nice work!

thanks, but compared to others I suck like a black hole.

You HAVE to check out newfangled's Edmonton google pack - hes re-created almost every building in our downtown... and lots of other signature buildings throughout Edmonton.. amazing work.

Newfy, if you don't mind I'm going to pimp your ride

I actually just did some stuff for the next Batman movie. Art deco skycrapers. I wish I could show you guys. The movie's going to be called Gotham, or Gotham City I think.

^ Crazy!

Let's not let this thread die! It's definitely a great topic... and I know there is alot of talent out there, but with holiday season upon us - perhaps the talented ones are out; and should see this thread when they return :)
