    Hey all!

    It's been a little while, I got quite heavily distracted on another project; one that will take quite a bit of effort over several months, but more on that another time.

    I've been trying to get the highschool pushed out the door.
    Here's the google maps link https://www.google.com/maps/@39.5988755,-104.79881,100a,35y,340.88h,55.46t/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en
    :???:I've been going back and forth about all those solar panels. I don't really want to add them because it really locks the building into the current era... without them, the building could be pretty much appropriate looking from the 80's and on. What do you think?

    anyway, picture time!

    Thanks for reading! I'm open to thoughts and opinions

    I'd love a version with solar panels - those who don't want them could always remove them with Prop It Up (assuming you're planning on making them props).

    Other than that, this looks really good! Great texture work :)

    The other way around makes a lot of sense as well. You can decorate buildings with props as you like, but removing is kind of complicated. I like buildings without a whole lot of props and frills. They are more versatile.

    Great looking school.

    I'd say with or without the solar panels, either way. I wouldn't mind with, but I'm building a present day city so it's fine. Are there that many people building cities in other eras? That said, I do prefer buildings without a lot of props, if not completely devoid of props, especially parking spaces. I want to place any and all parking myself. Not to mention most people just slap parking spaces down wherever, and rarely do they make any logical sense. So anyway, panels or no panels. Maybe no props period, other than ACs on the roof. Are those props or modeled into the building?

    Thanks for the advice and encouragement everyone!

    I've decided not to do the solar panels, due in large part of the fact that I don't feel like modeling them right now *:rofl:

    @Matthias King The roof junk are props, I've packaged them with the building.
