Lookin good so far. The roof textures may need improvement and it could use some roof junk as well. There was a DL for roof Junk props, I forgot where it is though.

Yes, they look really good, but like Ferrariguy1000 said you need to work on the roof texture and improve on the roof junk and mybe some other stuff but you are doing great. I'm really glad you have posted a picture here and I would love it if you would keep posting here and show updates on what you have done on you building so lots of people here can help you become a great bater in Sim City.

They look better, but I would not call these final.

You need to work on scale, details, and most definitely textures, but you are making improvements. Give us a chance to give you more advice to help you improve these. I love housing blocks and I even considered making these at one point.

Best of luck,

I assume you are an Eastern European, and what your doing looks like something a Warsaw Pact country would do for low wealth housing. It doesn't need much roof junk but the roof texture looks a little bit off. Anyways good city you made there, with the snow whatever and the Westernized Polish look.

zahrul3: Umm, no. These are from Chicago. Click on his avatar to see where he is from. Westernized polish look... lol. I would say these look very American in that they are almost identical in construction of early 20th century concrete reinforced industrial factories/warehouses, that is concrete with brick in between the concrete columns. East European prefabrication looks similar from afar, but up close is much different IMO.

(/Architecture rant)

Krezloyd: this is generally what you should be aiming for:

Could you post some zoom 5 renders for me? I would like to adjust one so you can better understand what you should trying to accomplish. I really want to see these come out nicely

Edit: fixing images.
