Unfortunately, although the export had been progressing well, my computer decided to reboot itself during the day and thus I got home from work to XPs Welcome screen and a failed export.

[Tunafish 48]

That sucks!

[EmergentFungus 29]

I've made the tallest part of the building which connects to 25 Canada Square to create the Citigroup Centre.

 

 

I might need to adjust the textures a little bit and its likely that I will have to render the pieces in 3 seperate parts.

 

Here's the night view;

 

 

I just need to put some furniture in the connecting parts and adjust the brightness.

 

Suggestions are welcome.

[DuskTrooper 314]

Nice work so far!  I like the night lighting job, with the office furnishings!

[Tunafish 48]

Hows One Canada Square Going? That new screen looks great!

[EmergentFungus 29]

Just to let you all know, Canada One is still unrendered. I did make a some big guns for a plaza, much to some peoples dislike. Time is hard to come by these days, but I should finish Canada 33 this week as i have a week off. Its half term!

 

My next project will be the Troll A oil platform. Should keep me occupied for a month or two.

That screen shot is sweeet! Looks like it will be a really cool building. *patiently waiting for one Canada square*
Hope the oil platform will generate loads of revenue (and polution).

This is a very nice idea, let's see how it looks like in the BAT.

A oil platform would be great.

[Cobb32118 239]

I'm not really all that scared of heights, but I get vertigo just looking at those pictures of the oil platform!  That will be quite a project.  I hope you'll share your progress.

[Smurfer2 7]

That sounds like a wonderful project. I'll add this to my must download list. Oil here I come.... There's nowhere it can hide now!

[EmergentFungus 29]

Well, I got sidetracked from my main projects and started making Nelson's Column in Trafalgar Square.

 

 

I'll make a landmark out of it, complete with the lions and other sculptures. Maxis only gave us a handful of Great British landmarks.

[EmergentFungus 29]

It was easier than I thought and I've just completed it.

 

 

Unless you have any suggestions, I'll render it later today.

 

I've got a lot more props to make for Trafalgar Square, bolards, more lions and the fountains but they won't take me long.

[Smurfer2 7]

Nope, I have no suggestions. It looks good. The top is especially detailed. Not to mention the lions.

[SimGoober 2,351]

Wow, amazing details.  I wouldn't even know where to start trying to make those statues....

[subedei 3]

Looks good so far fungus. Keep it up.

I dont often comment on projects...I usually wait to add them when I download the lots, but nelson column looks great EF. I am looking forward to seeing it on the STEX. Do you think at some point you could do a tutorial on how you did the statues?

I must confess, that I didn't make them!

 

The website, 3D Cafe has a lot of free Gmax and 3DS files for download, many of which are high polygon sculptures. I downloaded a horse and soldier, a figurine of a man and a lion and did some editing of them.

[hogmeister 7]

Its great to see someone making Nelsons Column, will you make a whole square and release it with fountains et all? I was looking at the Lions, just thinking they needed a bit more hair, lol, apart from that its great.

[EmergentFungus 29]

I am perfecting a fountain as I type this and I will be making a 5x5 square with the column, fountains and the various other sculptures. Its just a shame that there are no animated pigeon props!

 

[hogmeister 7]

didnt peg replace the beach seagulls with pigeons? there must be some way of seperating that out?

[Smurfer2 7]

Ooh, fountains. I'm looking forward to this. Maybe you had to confess that you edited the statues, but I still think you did a great job.

[trigger1000 5]

Wow, EF, that Trafalger Sq is absolutely amazing! How did you make Nelson and the lions? Is there a tutorial somewhere that tells you how to make complex shapes like this?

What's the latest on the Canada Square lots?

Check a few posts up.

 

As for the Canada Square lots, I've had to give up. My slow PC simply cannot handle the complex scenes. I'm upgrading in time for Half Life 2 in November so I'll finish them off then.

[dudyconstructor 40]

omg the lighting effects on that building looks incredibly terrific! never seen something so perfect! nice job!

[Peyres 0]

shame you couldnt finish it then? I really would love this building. Any Chance you will finish these projects, or havent you got your new PC yet?

[Chris M 406]

You could of PMed Emergent Fungus, you didn't have to revive an old thread.

[Alkaola 18]

hmm i think it would have been  better that EF send a post to the thread about leaving the BAT  then nobody would revive it

 

and well i also want more of this stuff

[debussyman 1,348]

I believe this BAT is already in STEX, isn't it?
