DutchDragon's Design

[Dutchdragon 74]

Hey people, I'm a long time user of this website.

Recenty I got the urge to create my own buildings for SimCity as a well as to share them, so I've started using the BAT. I present to you my first building, that some of you may know from the Dragon Ball series: Kami's Lookout. It will be uploaded to the STEX once finished. Please share your thoughts!

Looks interesting! Happy to see a new member enter the batting game!

After some technical difficulties with the LODS I finally managed to export it to the game! Though I now found out this is actually one of the lower quality renders... At least now I know how to export this thing.

As the Dragon Ball fans on this forum may know, this is Korin Tower, which is a sanctuary on top of a miles high totem pole. The totem pole is going to be modelled separately. Once those two are combined, I'm going to stack Kami's Lookout (seen in previous posts) on top of it.

Alright, everything is pretty much done. The models, the lots, the icons... All that's left to do is review it all one more time and finally upload it here! Here's the Holy Land of Karin:

Finally: Kami's Lookout is out now on the STEX:

Back to more secular matters... Currently I'm experimenting with nightlighting because the basis nitelite feature in gmax creates windows that are way too bright. So I'm trying to create a more subtle, homely atmosphere. IMO this is already a lot better. Feedback is much appreciated!

Progress on some typical Dutch smalltown W2W housing. In the screenshots you can see the two lots I've created; ultimately I'd like to have around six to have a set and release them on the STEX. Aside from BATS the lots also include walls and sheds as props. These I intend to include in a prop pack.
