JP Schriefer's BATs

[9gruntsand1hammer 3,196]

Thanks for releasing another amazing building. Looking forward to seeing it grow in my cities.

Also great work on the hotel, you're making some good progress.

[Thin White Duke 4,072]

Looks great!

[th3_jok3r 20]

wow amazing, any Sao Paulo buildings, like Palmeiras stadium kkkk

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

MushyMushy: thank you. Pegasus is one of my favourite things in this buiding.

9gruntsand1hammer: thank you, nice to know you like Porthos

th3_jok3r: I'm thinking about São Paulo buildings indeed, but I have to finish a lot of BAT projects yet. I don't know when I'll be able to do something, and don't even know if Palmeiras stadium will be on the list, cause doing Maracanã and Mineirão is being extremely tiring.

wallacet, Jasoncw, Toothless Stitch, tonyr and __B: thanks!

 

I'm texturing Magnolia Hotel yet and trying to apply good textures on it, I even "finished" texturing it once but I thought it was not looking good and start it again
Meanwhile I'm working in an old project, it's Museu da Inconfidência, from the city of Ouro Preto, MG, Brazil. Still have to model a few things.

And this other one I stopped in the begining of the year due to not having good pics of one of the sides of it. Now I just found a video showing it. Here's a very poor preview from the building I did in january.

Do you know which building is this one? ^
You probably already saw it. Some TV channels doing documentaries have been there too, just like a lot of curious people.

Not sure about the second Building but the Museum looks sweet.I don`t know why but it almost looks like a Museum or City Hall that could stand right in the middle of a historic City somewhere in Germany.

Any Infos of where it got its Design Influences?

That's Portuguese baroque architecture  it also has small hints of Rococo architecture as well

[SimCoug 5,973]

Great update!  BTW, I had some time today and I got that diagonal version in working order (still need to tweak the stats a bit).  I'll send a PM soon.

[Bombardiere 591]

Hah! Classical architecture. I like it a lot. Yes, depending on the texture, that museum could be from almost any European city. That makes it very useable. Thanks.

 

However, you may want to make window frames slightly bigger. A real life dimensions do not always look good in SC4. May be to have less window panels than in real buildings?

[Toothless Stitch 2,901]

Hello!

I think the white and grey textures are a bit too saturated. And a bit plain. You should work on them.

Regards

[Thin White Duke 4,072]

That first building looks stunning! As for the second one, I have no idea what it might be.

[SharkSark 397]

As always you make extremely awesome things !!!

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

Hotwheeler: as Bastet said, it's a barroque architecture. The influence I know it had was from the portugueses, because it was build by them in the colonial period around 1780 to be the City Council of Ouro Preto.

SimCoug: yay! Great news! Thank you about that

Bombardiere: Thank you. I'll check that after texturize it, maybe everything be white so far is messing with it (Editing: I realized I was taking the .jpg files from Flickr, now I changed it to .png and looks a bit better )

Toothless Stitch:

__B: thank you, you will know now

Sexysark:P: thank you
 

Art128 guessed the building in his first attempt on SC4Devotion , so I'll reveal it here too. I improved that old version and now it looks like this:

The building is Pripyat Pool. I don't know the official name of the building, I've to search about it. I want to make it because I liked very much all those big glass facades showing the pool and a basketball court, stairs etc. I want to make a regular version and after that think about an abondoned one as well.

Ooooh... Creepy.

Looks awesome so far, though. Not sure if it's the building for me. It's not your fault, but architecturally, it looks awful. Despite that, I could happily sit here for hours just to admire your detail work. Simply stunning. 

[art128 4,619]

but architecturally, it looks awful.

... In your opinion! I find that kind of architecture very beautiful and interesting.

 

Great to see someone picked-up this building. I have to say I was a bit sad when Todd when away for RL and never released this beauty.

I NEED IT, NOW!!! I'm totally in love with modernist architecture, and Pripyat is an excelent example of it delivered in a great composition. Please do a high wealth-style regular version, considering that, before the accident, Pripyat was the richer average city in the URSS.

Ooooh... Creepy.

As already said, maybe is not the building for you, but is definitely the building for me  

[Belfastsocrates 1,753]

Very exciting! Two superb buildings, I'm looking forward to seeing them both progress

[Toothless Stitch 2,901]

Still too white. But I like your framwork(ing) D:

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

__B: thank you , we all have our own architectural preferences, but I hope change your mind in the end of this BAT

art128: I hope to release it

matias93: I'll do it as high wealth indeed

Belfastsocrates: thank you

Toothless Stitch: thanks, but I like white previews

No updates now D:
Just came here to ask for help. I need to do the signs above the building, but I don't even know if that's written in Ukrainian or Russian. I tried to look for their languages characters and copy it but some of them I didn't find in alphabets, like that 'A without the middle line'.
I'll let some images here, so please, if you understand what's written there, can you help me? s2

 

[Thin White Duke 4,072]

I think those are cyrillic characters.

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

Yea, that's what I found, but look, the first letter there is not in the image (looks like 'n') and the 'A' I said looking like /\ is not as well.

[Thin White Duke 4,072]

I noticed that too, but I think at least it's a variation of cyrillian. Or it might just be the font.

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

Indeed, probably a variation. I just found very similar words with just a few different letters and it makes sense: Плавательный Бассейн Лазурный means Azure (blue) Swimming Pool . Probably this will be the name of the building.

I was just trying to found it for hours and when I decide to post here the solution comes immediately
Well, thank you.

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

Thank you all, guys
SimCoug, I have no idea how to make a diagonal building, but I'll try to learn it.

Last couple days I was working hard in Magnolia Building. Classes will be back soon, then I'm just getting ahead in all the projects.

 

 

 

OMG, I love this. How did I miss this post. Keep it up man!!!  :O

[Girafe 1,729]

first letter is corresponding to english L

 

let me know if you need more info

Well, it was my honor.

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

Aaron Graham: I'm finally glad with some textures on the model after try a lot of them, I hope to show how it's looking soon, thanks for liking it

Girafe: thanks, I'll let you know

I was tired of modeling and decided to texture something, since there's not so many things left to model in Museu da Inconfidência I started to test some textures on it. Textures shown here are not final of course, but I did like that one, which is actually a stone wall, it looks good in small areas, but in the biggest, like the base, it looks very repetitive and I don't know if will be possible to do something realistic there without repetiton . The roof and other textures will be changed soon.
Btw, thanks to Jason for helping me to make better configurations to the BAT's quality

[Harry's Place 918]

i like it, but i think it's a bit to saturated

[Thin White Duke 4,072]

Agree with Urban. Roof seems a little too orange. Also, the textures are a little repetitious, but that's no big deal.

[matias93 7,535]

In RL, a new (or clean) roof is as saturated as the one in the image, unless some clay is in the mix, in which case, it would be whiter too.

[Toothless Stitch 2,901]

No white no more \o/
