Building Log: Janne Toren

[paulvmontfort 616]

After doing many buildings from Hong Kong, I thought it was time for me to design my own tower. I started it Yesterday and the main tower is now pretty much done. It's a tall Residential Tower called 'de Janne Toren' or 'the Janne Tower'. I gave it a Dutch name because I'm Dutch myself.

Here are the first renders:

Wow, it's gorgeous!

What about the base?

** Dutch:

Het ziet er mooi uit! Maar wie is Janne?

I Have a few designs for the base in my head, but I'm not sure yet what looks best.

As for Janne: I might have a good sense of design. That isn't true for the names I give to my projects. So to make it simple, I just took the name of one of my classmates I like

Looking great

[hyped_up_boy 15]

whoa!! that's tall! how many floors is it? 70?

[DuskTrooper 314]

Awesome work as usual, Paul! You never cease to amaze!

[Superstar 69]

That is an awesome looking tower, can't wait to see the base!

[paulvmontfort 616]

well, during the downtime I worked out the base and the tower is now pretty much finished:

[anandus 15]

Wow, it's beautiful!

Just one word ... AWESOME!!!!

[skyscraper 216]

amazing, woow, cool BAT. I want to have it.

[kimcar 10]

Wow very nice one . I like the roof . For sure the rest of the building too .Great work.

[toxicpiano 125]

paul, you work too fast and too well!

[Cypherus21 0]

Paul, you're a machine! This BAT is amazing. I believe it's too amazing relative to the rest of the game, and many pronounced BATS from the STEX.

Great tower! I love when skyscapers have a base - makes them look more realistic and "full."

[paulvmontfort 616]

thank you for all the great comments

I might think of making this tower part of a larger complex of the same design with some offices and maybe a mall. But I have to continue to work on the Hong Kong BAT team as well.

for now, I have a night teaser pic:

[skyscraper 216]

cool nitelites, respect...I want to have it

[Cypherus21 0]

Wow, the tower looks amazing with those night-lights! When can I move in?

[T Wrecks 10,209]

I believe that "cool" and "fantastic" sum it up pretty well... and isn't that exactly the zoom level where the night windows used to be black?

[bixel 1,223]

T Wrecks: No that would be just one more zoom level out, check the Workshop thread BatForMaxV2, paul's nightwindows problem is mentioned there.

Paulvmontfort: Great creation!! I like the curved design, excellent use of raytracer materials heheh...oh could you make it taller? Just kidding!!!

[paulvmontfort 616]

these two towers will also be part of the complex:

[T Wrecks 10,209]

It's really funny... first you start the Pacific Place complex, run into problems, finally release the individual buildings, and now you present a new building and... start making a huge complex! Anyway, I think this might be your best building yet (best night lights for sure), and I hope you don't run into problems this time. When you have it finished and need a lot for it, you know where to ask.

[paulvmontfort 616]

well, it was never my intention to make this a single lot. More like 3 or 4 lots that resemble eachother in design and can be placed individually or be put together

[skyscraper 216]

wow, twin towers..lol^^. How high they are

[paulvmontfort 616]

after a good nights sleep, i decided it's best to make it a stand-alone tower rather than a complex. I'll send it to T Wrecks for modding soon.
