By circling and saying that I am ripping off buildings in real life. I only put two buildings up that were inspired by ones in real life, not half the skyline.

Sometimes less is more with the posting austin.

There's no need to edit posts, just choose your words more carefully.

[Austin55]

Here is shot of the Hutchinson shoreline, aka. Hutchinson Beach. The Beach streches across the East side of the penninsula. This was actually a man-made beach erected back in the 70's to make the city more desireable for tourists. In the slump of the late 70's through the 80's, the beach was covered with more litter than sand, cars were pushed into the shallow water, homeless would make camp on the beach, etc......... It was not until 1993 when Mayor Rosenthol cleaned things up.

During his term, Rosenthol constructed new parking lots, the boardwalk, renovated the ferry terminal, a lighthouse, and established a city carnival. Since then the Hutchinson Shore is known for residents and tourists having a good safe time. On a hot weekend during the summer, you'll find it quite hard to plant a beach chair and towel. The shore is now a popular city destination.

[QUOTE=austin55;3014863]BTW,how about a X pattern on the bridge?/QUOTE]

I was thinking about that, but then I recalled Patrick has an "X" pattern on the Jefferson Bridge. I do not want to copy. I'll think of something better though.

2. This city is in present time, unlike Alton which isn't.
3. READ the history and information and you'll learn why the designs are the way they are.

Here we go again. You know Dac, you'd say the exact same things me and Austin would say, I mean, come on! Its really obvious that thats the Sony, NY Times, and Citigroup Building, XYZ Buildings (Including one that has a simular shape to the Galcorp Tower), but all shorter. Of course I like your city, so keep them, but why must you blow up everytime someone says something bad about your city?

[Dac150]

The Imperial Tower is the cities second tallest as 80 floors. The building was completed in 1925 and was the Worlds tallest until 1930 when it was surpassed by the Chrysler Building in New York. Since then the 115 floor HIFC Tower was the only one in the city to surpass the Imperial Tower. However, other buildings have rivaled the Imperial's height.

Today the Imperial Building is home to a number of commercial businesses. There is a restaurant on the 79th floor and a observation deck on the 80th floor. In 1995 the building went through a major renovation and was deemed a city landmark in 1996 by Mayor Rosenthol.



Ok, that'll do it until Sunday. Enjoy guys (especially you austin being that you wanted an upclose of this building. ).

I have a tip for more crativity, sketch out some unique buildings, you'll be amazed on what you create.


BTW, Dac you need to fix that bridge

It is a mess isn't it. Do you have any suggestions? I didn't want to copy your design for the Jefferson bridge.

And thank you for the suggestion. I'll give it a try in my hotel room tomorrow night, when there is no access to ssp.

[Mocholate]

Yeah , fix that bridge - you copied the approach footings from mine I AM KIDDING !!

Geez you work fast

I've said before -no matter how creative anyone can get with design ,i guarantee there is a building somewhere on earth that is similar

[Austin55]

And for the record me an austin are cool.

yep,sketches are were I get all my inspiration

[Peter]

Good job so far. I was also going to say this would be 1000 times better if it were textured, but from the sounds of it, you don't plan on texturing it ever. If you're going to do the all white look, at least "reverse face" the blue faces and I'd like to see some shots with profiles only, no outlines, for that cell-shaded look that teras does. oh, and shadows too. Keep it up.

[Aleks]

I like the city but change the bridge. Oh, and try to sketch your buildings on paper (like people before mentioned) and you will make way better designs. Thats what I do and all of the buildings I've created in Sketchup have been drawn on paper.

[Dac150]

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

Well, I'm back from my short trip to Rhode Island. Expect an update tomorrow.
