    Nice detail. Your textures look a little grainy though... like they've got a lot of high frequency noise applied to them...

    whar stars?the gold like stuff on the roof?there's not really much i can do about it,here's an example,

    1_____GMAX_pic_top-1.jpg

    i don't know what you mean but is it this? i can try to space out those lines a bit though, maybe it also just helps to render on medium quality rather than low

    You mean stairs, not stars, I suppose. 2.gif And yes, I agree with that point. Besides, while this way of making a roof entrance is a nice change, I doubt if it would be done very often because it eats up space in a regular (non-tech) floor. I guess in most cases you'd have an extension of the staircase that ends in a tech floor/area on the roof. Not to forget, such a tall building needs elevators, and if your topmost floor is still a regular office floor, where is the elevator machinery located?

    The bottom looks interesting... it's really fugly, totally lifeless and puts the most boring and ugly part of the building directly to the street level. 3.gif However, some of those buildings do exist, and that's why I like it. I like your fuglies anyway. 4.gif

    Aren't you going to add an entrance that's at least a tiny bit more representative. I think it looks a tad too ugly with only those loading docks and some side/emergency exit doors. A one-storey, blocky, fugly lobby in a little side building might look nice...

    Anyway, great to see you BAT more ugly buildings, I love these so much!

    I didn't  typo ,t wrecks, lol  it was simfox, so i got  sorta confused, but anyway the stuff the with the goldish like lines is also supposed to be a utils area , so i guess the lift engine is there, and no i don't think those stairs are to wide, you will need some space if you are going to move new/old

    roof junk up/down again.  This is how the base looks, i still have stuff to improve on it though...

    We cross-posted. When I wrote that answer, your replay wasn't there. 2.gif

    Well I normally would say of a bat of this quality that it turned out beautifully but for this fugly I really can't 4.gif It's a great bat. Makes me think of something the government would have built in the 1960s and has let fall apart every since.
