Hi Guys,

Lots of missing high-rises of Ankara has been added step step, recently.

I have added images of all buildings in their category. So if you are interested in drawing any high-rise of Ankara, please come and check http://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?cityID=574

When you find a certain building you want to draw, please inform me if you need any other images.

Ankara needs your Help!

I'll do ATA Plaza(there are good renderings to go from, and I will also tackle the international trade plaza if you can get a better rendering than the crappy one on emporis.

It may be a little while before i can get around to finishing them.

Virtue · #3 Posted **Sep 12, 2005, 8:30 AM**

Done.

Code:

Thanks Pandemonious! :)

I guess you have the renderings but just to be sure,

ATA PLAZA

 

 

 



Unfortunately, the only rendering avaible is the crappy one in Emporis for The International Trade Center. :(

I have also posted pics in building's own pages. If you are interested in certain building. Please ask me. I will post more pics about that.

I started a diagram for ATA Plaza...

For ATA Plaza, I don't buy that that spire is only 5.55 m/18.2 ft
tall..

Just look at the elevation drawing. It looks well over 30 feet.

I know you said you got the info from an engineer, but just compare the spire to the heights of the floors.

Pandemonious · #7 Posted **Sep 21, 2005, 4:21 AM**

Finished ATA Plaza:

Virtue · #8 Posted **Sep 21, 2005, 8:53 PM**

Thank you very much, Pandemonious!!!

It looks good

Though tower is thicker. Up to the copy of project I have, thickness of the tower is around 27 m, 27 pixels.

Highest part of lowrise shopping centre is 24.3 m, which should be almost 24 pixels.

Don't count the white part as spire. It is not, there are two floors inside it.

Nice drawing, Supertall!

I haven't noticed this thread before, but I'd love to help draw some buildings for Turkey. I'll get to work on some of this stuff.

Virtue · #11 Posted **Dec 13, 2005, 5:42 PM**

Thank you, Taylor.

I have fixed some broken links.

Taylordaman · #12 Posted **Dec 16, 2005, 2:21 AM**

Akman:

I'm not very happy with this one.

Virtue · #13 Posted **Dec 16, 2005, 6:52 PM**

Really nice, Taylor.

I am not very proud of Akman Condominum's design actually, but yours looks better than real Akman.

Virtue · #15 Posted **Dec 16, 2005, 7:01 PM**

Hey, I caught you online!! That is really cool, thank you!

Ankara diagram is getting better and better by your diagrams

Taylordaman · #16 Posted **Dec 16, 2005, 11:26 PM**

Oh yeah! I love Tony's work. He showed me some cool drawing tips.

LMich · #17 Posted **Dec 16, 2005, 11:33 PM**

Can he show me some, too? lol My drawing style has gotten really stale. I think I'm one of the only ones that doesn't use layers to draw. I find it far too confusing and time consuming.

BTW, great drawing, Tony.

Taylordaman · #18 Posted **Dec 17, 2005, 9:48 AM**

Don't ask him for help then.

He showed me some cool layering on how he uses them. It was very helpful. Helps a lot with window shades and balcony shadows.

Jai-C · #19 Posted **Dec 18, 2005, 5:06 PM**

I just got your mail Taylor. Are there any pictures of the base of Çankaya Hotel?

Virtue · #20 Posted **Dec 19, 2005, 12:51 AM**

Glad to hear you are interested in Çankaya Hotel, Jai-C.

Unfortunately Hotel's base is under re-construction, so it is quite in bad condition.

Best photo I have is the one I took few months ago. I guess there is no change because construction is going very slow due to owner's financial problem.

You may find additional photos at,
