what about jjb sports?

[bevanl 6]

Thanks for the Suggestion, actually today I was buying clothes from JJB today at Merry Hill Shopping Centre not far away from I live

[Franz Ferdinand 14]

kool the problem i find with jjb's is the football(soccer) shirt printing costs loads sumit like 2.50 a number and 1 pound a letter i think i cost me almost 20 pounds just to have henry 14 put on my arsenal shirt

[bevanl 6]

I know, I find it outrageous to pay for lettering on a football (Soccer) shirt, (especially the cost!) JJB should offer a voucher so you can have it for free!

(Oh no I am going ridiculously off topic!, but it does not matter! )

I am now doing a completely new project, my new project is a Motorway (Highway) Service Station, with one it will make a Highway complete. Any way here is a few pictures of my unrendered model, I haven't finished it yet, but any comments is welcome, It is a B.A.T of the real world chain of Motorway Service Stations in the UK called Moto, after this I try and do a Travelodge to go with it, and to make it complete or it needs is a Petrol Station which Bobbo662 or Deadwoods. (Or any other B.A.Ter created.)

Any way here are the Pictures










There seems to be a problem with the pictures, I will try and fix the problem as soon as possible, I checked the images again on imageshack and they seem to be uploaded okay, I am not sure it is something to do with simtropolis.

Update: Image problem fixed

[bevanl 6]

And, of course any comments at all are welcome!

Hey! Its a moto! kool!

How'd you get those textures transparent like that????

 

Nealos101.

[bevanl 6]

Just use any glass texture from the internet and then change the Opacity.

Thank you for your comment nealos101, I wish you luck with your San Portello/Las Ventura CJ and B.A.Ting!

I am currently working on the Travelodge B.A.T

[GingerBlokey 30]

I love moto. These BATs look great.

[Lord_Bertrum 3]

Will you be creating a bridge spanning a motorway for this BAT?

[bevanl 6]

I am progressing well on the Travelodge B.A.T all I need to do is to add Windows and Doors and some exterior features.

[ianpaschal 77]

Looks great, I love the way you use the opacity settings, especialy for transparent signs.

I look forward to downloading these.

Here are the First Pictures of the Travelodge, I just did some improvements to the model, I will need to do the back next and the front of the reception area.

My Model has the new Travelodge Logo. (This Model is not rendered)





Any Comments are Welcome!

[bevanl 6]

Hi, again, I have completed the front and back of the Moto and now I have got to do the roof (Roof Junk)

Anyway here are the pictures of the Highway/Motorway Service Station. (The Travelodge will be a seperate Building)



I have nearly finished the Travelodge, all I need to do is to probably add an Air Conditioning Unit.



Any Comments are welcome.

I love some of those textures, especially on the Travelodge.

[bevanl 6]

I will try and render these models next week.

[paulvmontfort 617]

great work, keep it up

[bevanl 6]

Hi again, I haven't logged in to Simtropolis lately because I had a very heavy workload to do, but luckily it is all out of the way. Here are the first rendered images of the Travelodge (Also my computer is now rendering buildings really quickly, then usual)

Day Render



Night Render



Any Comments are welcome before I do the final render, I also need to render the Comet Electrical Store as well.

[TheCrybKeeper 301]

Ohyeah! I'll comment! This looks really grand! Love how you have the sign on the roof; That will look really great in the game!

P.S.

I just figured out how to BAT today, Thanks to Tungstons kind help, so I know how much is being put into this artform now. Also that is a super floor texture in the night windows! Sweeet!

[bevanl 6]

Thanks for the comment , the floor texture is actually bricks, because I didn't put a floor inside the building, but before the very last render I will add the floor.

[simwario 95]

Congratulations, the building is very well done. Love it.

[Lord_Bertrum 3]

I'd forgotten about this project, but it seems to be coming along smoothly now, have you any plans for the LOT?

[bevanl 6]

Actually I do have a few plans for the Lot which I will do some screenshots in the lot editor.

I may need to delay rendering (again), as my computer was making a strang noise while rendering, but I will keep attempting.

Sometimes I don't like Gmax/BAT because of the extremely slow rendering time, In Simcity 5 Maxis better improve rendering time on models.
