BATs by Bipin

[kellydale2003 2,276]

You must have extreme patience to BAT small things. When I do that, I lose interest then projects get postponed :b
Great job so far though! ahaha

[KonstantinII 1,106]

did you make the car?

[Bipin 3,402]

did you make the car?

 

No, that is in Girafe's/VIP's car pack.

Visual glitches aside, here's the parking lot:

 

 

 

Enjoy!

[Huston 5,798]

Too much awesome in one picture This is perfect Bipin!

[Bipin 3,402]

It's Back...

 

 

Finally, some legs I'm happy with. Also, I've changed the BAT from HD to SD. This will be the SD, zoom five render. Enjoy!

[Huston 5,798]

Regardless that it's HD or SD, it looks great! Can't wait for release

I'd almost say that the loading bays are a little too much if you keep them like this, the repetition becomes very obvious. Maybe just leave one of them out  - it's not like the stores couldn't share a loading area or maybe there's a larger store that doesn't need two. That parking lot is what's up though, really nice.

I'll probably leave it out of one or two iterations. This model is intended to represent a clothing and housewares store. Things like restaurants or small, private businesses will not have loading bays.

bipin I like his work,

but a correction

maybe I should just place a single large entrance and the other windows, or quisas other stores to give realism because many quisas same store them together or other styles to the other stores as displays, ads, etc..

 

is just an opinion

 

ps: perhaps a sign outside, bipin center of bipin mall

you understand what I mean

One other solution I had just thought of would be to retain the loading bays in most stores, but have them of a different design. This would greatly differentiate one boutique from the next.

I think I get what you're saying. I am aiming to make this a strip mall of boutiques, not big box stores (although those can certainly be included, in conjunction with these BATs). Furthermore, this will not be the only store. As much as I wish every store in every strip mall was named "Bipin", that will not be the case here. I will retaint he basic structure, but create all sorts of different facades.

if I understood that good

may have small restaurants and shops around, but bipin general store, deve be in the center as the jewel of the mall  

 

I understand

Awesome work as always Mr Bipin, and I'm glad to see your cooling tower come back in upgrade

SD render is just perfect

[Delecto 941]

Your last project is superb, I just find that there is insufficient space on the back of the LOT to let pass the delivery trucks.

 

The cooling tower reaches maturity!   But I find it a little bit crushed, 133% vertical scaling may be useful...?!

Thanks for reminding me about the scaling. After some quick testing, it seems 120% to 125% will be optimal. I'll have some screenshots soon.

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

Wonderful work on your projects Bipin, keep up the great work. 

[Bipin 3,402]

I have added some water, below the hyperboloid structure, as per the real-world design.

 

 

However, I feel as though the concrete texture was not realistic enough, so I have to changed to a more photorealistic pink colour and immensely higher poly count. Let me know what you think! Actually, the pink is just a temporary mask to speed up render time.

[MandelSoft 2,769]

Wow! Such artistic brilliance! Top quality detail modelling and such good textures! The pink colour captures the essence of the uncertainty in life about our preferences and poses the question about the meaning of our existence. This work of quality cannot be surpassed by any other BATter!

[Delecto 941]

I prefer this version, especially the textures, what a talent!

[Bipin 3,402]

Here's the vertically scaled version:

 

 

To give a sense of scale and footprint, I put a random building I had lying around as a placeholder for the pumphouse which supplies the structure with cool water. The actual building will just be an exposed metal framework with mechanical pump and piping bits.

[Reddonquixote 4,338]

The vertical scaling looks much better. The whole BAT is looking really nice.

 

I'm not familar with these structures, should there be a doorway where the gantry intersects with the pumphouse? Maybe because I can't see the other side, what's the other gantry for? There's only appears to be one ladder. Is the pumphouse door on the other side? Its all very intriguing, I feel like I want to climb around on it and see where everything goes

[Darknono35 3,137]

Yeah, the scale look much better now, and I can't wait the rest of the structure accomplished

Great work Bipin

[Bipin 3,402]

Since the current addition to the cooling tower is a temporary placeholder, I did not go into detail with doors. To be honest, I don't think the new structure will have doors anyways. Just a roof over a larger catwalk/gantry area that encircles a myriad of pipes and pumps. Also, Reddonquixote, each and every cooling tower is custom made; seldom are two ever alike, even at the same facility. Pretty much anything goes when it comes down to the nitty-gritty details.

 

Edit:

 

Can't help but mention that this is my 1,000^th post! Kind of cool that I reached this landmark on my birthday; which is of a particular landmark age.

[KonstantinII 1,106]

 

I couldn't go to sleep tonight without sharing this:

 

 

Enjoy!

 

 

to compliment the previous building, here's some sort of trench-like structure:

 

 

 

 

 

It has a 1x3 footprint. The structure will make it appear, when placed in between/beside roads, other buildings, that they are on some sort of level above the sublayer (that grey area which I don't know what to do with yet).

 

What about these projects?

Both are in the works. I have actually been working on the former; the MSE walls quite recently.

[Bipin 3,402]

The cooling tower is turning out quite well; the mechanical bits really add to the overall feel.

 

 

I'd say this BAT is almost complete.

 

 

Yeah, almost; that's the key word here... 

[MandelSoft 2,769]

Geez, what lamps do you got there at the bottom? The sun itself? 

[Delecto 941]

Bipin, turn off the light please.

[Bipin 3,402]

Geez, what lamps do you got there at the bottom? The sun itself? 

 

It's funny, because this cooling tower is intended to be used at a nuclear facility. Psst... Between you and me, we'll just say it was intentional.

 

 

However, this is one solution. By simply removing the water, I can get the lighting back to normal.

[weixc812 509]

well, it's just too bright or too dark. Can't we have a compromise?
