[Vlasky 1,803]

Hey folks,

 

thank you for your interest in my projects. Unfortunately I had some RL issues that disabled me from working on my projects for time being. 

 

I promise to return and finish all that I've started as soon as I stabilize my life and current situation. Be sure, all of my BATs will be available for you to download some time in the future. 

 

Thank you for understanding,

Vlasky

Vladimir! Good to see you're still around. From what you write, it sounds a bit like the kind of RL interruption that kinda sucks, not the pleasant kind. I hope you're getting through it all in one piece, and that we'll be able to welcome you back among us soon. Don't let 'em get you down!

Vlasky.. my friend.. any updates on the beautiful pieces you were working on?

[mrsmartman 200]

ESB looks great! Splendid idea with the animation of progress.

[Vlasky 1,803]

Well guys I'm back with updates. As you know by now, we have been quietly working on the NYBT INternational Month for quite some time now. Finally, it is time to show you what we've been up to all that time.

 

First project I chose to reveal is 41 Madison Avenue, also known as the New York Merchandise Mart. 

Most of the exterior has been done and all that is left to do is figure out how to do the interior and after that night lights. Also there is some room for improvement on the glass part. Here it is:

 

 

I'm open for any suggestions on how/what to improve. 

[cmdp123789 710]

Excellent! I really love it! Its amazing.. this really is a great surprise!

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

Awesome building. Nice to see you doing BATs again

[Hotwheeler 409]

Hooray,Vlasky is back in Action!

Your current Project is looking good and it seems that it is almost finished.At least the textures and the details are al where they need to be.Is it just my bad eyes or did you use the "there are actually rooms behind the Windowpanes and not just a Texture" Technique?

Take your Time you need to finish this.Man i`m so exited for all the great stuff that`s coming with this theme....

cmdp123789: Thanks! Btw, I'll try to get something for your birthday

JP Schreifer: Thanks!

Hotwheeler: Thank you! Well the glass is transparent and there is some sort of texturing on the floors, but the plan is to have some "furniture" set up. I think that's the best way since the glass on the RL building is transparent for the most part. But it is also more relfective than what I have achieved there, so I'll be fixing it.

 

Like I said in the NYBT International Month Thread:

 

Since I didn't get around to working on the 41 Madison I have to reveal the second BAT, right?

 

The Second BAT from me for the NYBT International Month is J.P. Stevens Company Tower or 1185 Sixth Avenue.

 

 

Here is zoom5 of the roof and the plaza behind the building (plaza is lacking little pines that you can see in the render above):

 

         

 

As for this building, the whole ground floor needs remodeling and adding details, there is also an annex behind with gallery/theater and a "bridge" connecting the tower and the annex that I need to model. The Plan is to have the tower with Plaza available for growable/ploppable purposes and the version with annex for the recreationists. I'd like to have a diagonal version as well.

[SimCoug 5,976]

Awesome! And a diagonal too - double awesome!

[cmdp123789 710]

This is huge man... I love it.. It's like it gets better and better with every update!

[T Wrecks 10,210]

I can only agree and nod approvingly while I'm drooling over these preview renders.

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

Wow, very beautiful building indeed. I especially liked the roof. I would like to do something so real in the 32 Old Slip, but can not find appropriate textures

[Seraf 1,239]

Great work on the roof, it looks very good In fact the whole building looks great

[Toothless Stitch 2,901]

Awesome how this subforum seems to explode compared to the General BAT forum and the other Team forums :$

[unclesahm 32]

What's going on with these projects? They look wonderful

[edwardjeria 503]

¿Qué está pasando con estos proyectos? Se ven maravillosa

now, is stop

 

[NKF5 15]

Can we stop bumping this thread so that when Vlasky returns we can tell quickly?

Hey bud, I wish not to annoy you in any way, i'm just curious for the destiny of the Empire State Building, the Squibb Building, 261 Madison Avenue, 41 Madison Avenue and 1185 6th Avenue. The teasers were wonderful!
