It will be great if you guys do the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre!

[Norwegian Neko 12]

Looks awesome, guys. Any idea when you will be releasing these on the STEX? How many total (different designs, not lots) are you doing?

Man, I wish I could work on these too - I'm an architecture student who's bored with too much free time this winter. =P
And I BAT pretty decently, too. =D

Email me if you're interested in having another BATTER (I do textures really well also).

Cheers from Oregon.

PS - Vancouver, Canada has some really cool HK-style towers. Hundreds of 'em ~30 or so stories tall.

You could start right away if it was for me, We were looking for Batters from day 1. Just choose the building you want to do (which hasn't been done yet) and start

zilfondel: Cool, man go get gmax, and the BAT tool and you will probably also want BATforMax, check the mods files and make sure you follow directions all through the readme. Me and Paulvmontfort both are currently using 3DS Max6, though there have been rumors that some people are using sketchup - exporting to BAT and rendering for SC4. Anyway if your interesting in Residentials like I am, here some links to some cool ones I thought about doing, but can always use the help! BWT for all you readers you might want to check these links out for yourselves, there is some pretty coool looking residentials here. (Most of these do not support English language, but I have learned to navigate around pretty easy.)

For the ones who missed it:

Jardine House is out on the STEX, Go find it here

 

 

And please drop down a rating if you can, i'd appreciate it

[bixel 1,228]

Yes, plz vote if ye haven't already.

Well....So I have Tower1 of the Arch 99% finished, I just need some input from you guys to make sure I have the colors right, maybe you want them a little orange-r or tannish, you tell me, included is the ground specs, so you know which tower I am referring to, obviously the rest of the Arch is not presented here.

And here is the color test.

[Micah 16]

Wow!!! 10/10. Now, is this building a landmark or  commercial building?

[jesselong 0]

I'm sorry, Micah. The Arch is not a commercial building. It's a high-class residential building in Hong Kong. The texture is nice! Here's some real phtot of The Arch. Hope it'll be useful.

[Fantail 0]

so is that the side of the arch?

[HONG KONG 74]

The direct comparison shows the truth. Perfect color design

[Fantail 0]

yeah, i agree, i thought both were real pictures at first.

[paulvmontfort 617]

started working on a new modell today. I'm experimenting with the lights of the Centre but i should ask kd5rax for help.

anyway here's a pic of what i got in an hour:

I'm in a serious lack of good detailed pictures though

[HONG KONG 74]

Hopefully everything goes well with the centre. This skyscraper is according to my opinion one of the most beautiful in the world.

At the rare rating of your Jardine I was very much surprised, because very many asked before for it.

I send you the pictures of the HSBC. Much too large for the 600x800 here.

 

I look forward already to the next update

[toxicpiano 125]

stunning, keep it up guys!

I didn't received anything. Are sure you sent the files?

[bixel 1,228]

Hoho! Ahh yes Paulvmonfort! Your start on the HSBC is right on! This town is gonna look so good. Maybe we should invite Jesselong to the group as CJ coordinator! Hehehe, I think I'll take some requests from him since he has that nigh-perfect replica of HK going on.

[Fantail 0]

Yes! I've wanted to see HSBC for so long, the last attempt failed, but i'm sure you will succeed. Btw, thanks for all of your contributions.

[rooker1 4]

OMG, this stuff is great.  Where do I DL this stuff.... I'm all over it right now.

[bixel 1,228]

The ARCH

 

OK....Tower 1 and 2 finished. Construction (Work) on Tower1a and Tower2a still in progress. Middle part is going to be hard but I promise a-lot of eye candy, I wnat it so you can look inside and see the pool, ballroom sky club - everything. Middle part not yet texture so it may look funny.

[HONG KONG 74]

nice construction picture! I think this is your masterpiece, and we have a new BAT-master here.

[toxicpiano 125]

this is gonna be quite special...

[Chris M 406]

Big fan of your guy's work... the Harbourside is amazing.. and the IFC2... wow..

I thought I could help you with a few HK HSBC Centre pics:













I hope these help, and good luck on this one!

It's one of the coolest HK skyscrapers, IMO.

[Fantail 0]

Yes, i agree and goodluck, i have a picture from my trip to hongkong over the summer, hope this helps.

[bixel 1,228]

Cool. I wish I could visit Hong Kong and have some real Chinese food, American Chinese Food sucks!!!

[paulvmontfort 617]

here's another render to keep you guys satisfied

[toxicpiano 125]

[bixel 1,228]

Good detail, this is going to be one of your best creations yet!

[paulvmontfort 617]
