8) Whatcha Think?

[knarfor]

Cool! It is hard to squeeze detail into a building that small; but you did it! :tup:

[Buck]

Thanks! Yeah, when its resized, it blurs all that hard work together, but this one turned out alright.

[LMich]

So is that one done at 1:2 also?

[RyanHayes1984]

You did a G-r-r-r-r-reat Job Buck! :)

[Kelvin]

I believe the smaller ones are often the more difficult ones. Nice work Buck, it's really convincing.

[Buck]

Thanks, guys. :) Its a 1:2 scale. I uploaded the original one (PSD File)

[Taylordaman]

That looks awsome!!

[knarfor]

Excellent Buck! Very well done. I agree with Kelvin, some of hte hardest buildings to draw are the smaller ones. You seem to have no trouble with them though.

[Buck]

Thanks guys!

That one is really great.

[Buck]

Thanks :), but is it too blue though? It kinda bugs me how royal blue it is...

[LMich]

It's excellent, but I was going to say that too. I'm sure the glass will be a blander tone in reality.

[Jai-C]

Just try to reduce saturation and turn it more into green :)

[Buck]

Jai-C, should I do that to the whole diagram or just to the glass part? If I do it to the whole diagram, would it mess with the colors in the rest of the structure?

[Jai-C]

just the glass, though the trees could use a little bit more green also.

[Buck]

Ok. Thank You. :)

[Buck]

Next up, 191 Peachtree Diagonally! eek! It'll be tough...

[Buck]

before I finish 191, I decided to do a couple of smaller buildings. Here is one:

First Tennessee Bank Building, Chattanooga TN:

[Sulley]

Next up, 191 Peachtree Diagonally! eek! It'll be tough...


Noooooooooooooooo! :)

I'm doing the exact same thing, and mine is almost done. Let it begin... The battle of 191 Peachtree! May the best man win!



Mwuahahaha! :D

[Buck]

But I am from Atlanta. I deserve it. :D

[Sulley]

I'm kinda from Atlanta. :P

I'll be there today, actually :D

[Sulley]

Well, well.

I'm on the 61st floor of the Westin Peachtree looking right at 191. She's just begging to be drawn ;)

[Buck]

I don't have to be looking at it for it to know how much I love it. It loves me too. It want's me to draw it. ;)

[Buck]

The Concorde, Atlanta GA:
http://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=8869&drawingID=17611

I have to admit- this one didn't resize very well. Its proportionately resized, but the different color windows (due to curtains, etc.) make it look poor quality and grainy. I'll fix it one day.

[Sulley]

Well, it's still a good job, Buck :)

I have a few tiny Atlanta drawings I need to add.

[Buck]

Thanks, Justin. ;)

Me too- but thats not unusual. Ever since my first drawing I've always planned on more Atlanta buildings. Its a constant work in progress. And if you check my profile page, you will see that 191 is still atop my list. I will get around to finishing it soon...I hope.

[Sulley]

I'm not releasing mine until you release yours. j/k :D

Anyways, I am going to be completely redoing the Westin as well (you know why...). I was wondering - should include Macy's in the base? Because, technically, it IS part of the building according to the Westin.

[Buck]

nah, its not part of the building. Macy's is extra special though. :)

[Sulley]

Excellent job, Buck!!!

I can't wait to see all my Atlanta buddies again this weekend... 191, BofA, Westin... they're all my friends :D


Okay, maybe I need help...

[Buck]

Thanks, Justin! :) And thanks for responding. :)

I know what you mean. They're all my good buddies too.

[Gulcrapek]

Buck, it's good, but the upper window divisions never appear like that, and overall the window columns are much smoother and more uniform. Also, the base is a little off, there's a thicker beam a about two floors up on the right angled side of the drawing.

Maybe this helps? There aren't many photos of the building for some reason...

http://www.greatgridlock.net/NYC_Images/030.jpg

[Buck]

Thanks Eli. I'll fix it right quick. That picture helps a ton! You're right- there aren't too many to be found. Which is quite strange...

[Buck]

Also, is the middle section of the building a little taller than the rest? I can't tell- it looks like it some photos but not in others...

[Buck]

Is this better?

http://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=2311&drawingID=17917

[Gulcrapek]

I think so...

I'll take pictures of it in like 2 weeks from different angles.

[Buck]

That'd be good.

Next up, NYSE Building. :)

[Buck]

The NYSE Building is alot of work! I'm still working on it.

Here is a revised diagram of

I'm looking at 191 again, only this time from the 65th floor. He says hi and appreciates the drawing :D

[Buck]

Aw, thats sweet. :D

I know that they are all identical, but I felt like posting them. :)

[Jared]

way to hit 6 birds with one stone.

drawing commie blocks is the best way to increase your drawing count :haha:

[Buck]

lol, indeed! But these were built in 2000, so I don't think I'd call them commie blocks.

Nice draw Buck !

[Buck]

Thanks, Guys!!

[Gulcrapek]

I'm waiting for NYSE. Glitttttttttttter

[Buck]

Should be coming up by next week, Eli. :) I am going out of town this weekend, so unless I finish during the week, I'll add it next week.

[Gulcrapek]

Goodie.

[Buck]

One Shell Square, New Orleans LA:
http://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=1543&drawingID=19247

[LMich]

Buck, these last two are a bit too wide. These two buildings, are something you have to draw in a 1:2 scale since their bracings are less than a meter thick. I had plans to fix both of these, but I couldn't find a good photo of the top and base of One Shell Plaza. I am going to fix my 3000 Town Center, though.

Good drawings, though.

[Buck]

I did draw them at 2:1. I don't feel that 1 Shell Square is too wide. It is diagonal and so it will appear wider than it is. I will make 3000 Town Center a little less wide.

[Buck]

1 Shell may be a few pixels too wide upon second thought...I'll tweak it.

[LMich]

Yeah, look at these photos, the width between each vertical beam is at most only 1 meter, so the windows at most, even on the widest side should only be one pixel. Are you sure you drew this is 1:2? It looks like 1:1. This tower is pretty thin.

[Buck]

I think I would know what I drew it at. It's 2:1, don't try and tell me its not.

I like them all. :) :tup:

[Buck]

Thanks Guys! Eli, my next drawing will be my 300th. It is going to be the NYSE Tower. :)

[Gulcrapek]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Buck]

Here it is.........







....My 300th....









....the New York Stock Exchange Building, New York NY:

http://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=1226&drawingID=20020

So whatcha think? 8) It's really only my 300th one in the database, I bet if I didn't delete the ones I replaced and some others that I just didn't like, I would have 500 or so.

Alot of work went into this one. Alot of time.

[Gulcrapek]

I think the base was different, with a different entrance and stuff... the tower is great. A little more 'shimmer' would be better but I have no idea how to do that.

[Buck]

I don't know how to get it more shimmered either, thats the most shimmer I know how to give it, but thanks. The base was tricky, I only had a small, poor quality rendering that didn't even show the entrance and the bottom part of the base. So I improvised.

I'm pretty happy over all. When I find things to fix and the resources to aid me in fixing it, I will.

omg omg omg!

EXCELLENT! :D

[Buck]

Thanks Jai-C & Justin!! :)

[LMich]

Where is the Sterick? I really want to see it.

[LMich]

I see it know! Nice, I love drawing old buildings and you did that one justice.

[Buck]

Thanks!! It was a pleasure to draw. It took a long time, but I think it was worth it.

[Gulcrapek]

Overlook 3 looks really crystalline...

[Buck]

That's what I was going for. :)

[coth]

Guys, how about new drawing of new 835m design of Burj Dubai...
I think it must be correctly showing on diagram.?!?

[Buck]

Guys? :???:

[coth]

I mean mans, boys or everything synonym

Nobody of you don't want to draw new taller drawing of Burj Dubai..?

[Buck]

Umm, Coth- this isn't a request thread for everyone. It is my thread where I post my new drawings and perhaps take requests.

[coth]

i know...
just i suggest a good idea...

think it a request for you :)

[Buck]

Be considerate though. :) If it is a request for me, then fine, thank you. But it wouldn't be right if you turned this thread into a request thread for everyone. :)

[Buck]

A quick one...

1st Tennessee Bank Building, Memphis TN:

http://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=4318&drawingID=20500

[Gulcrapek]

Is the base like that?

[LMich]

Actually, the base is a little taller than the other floors, like in my drawing, which didn't resize too well at all.

BTW, why can't I see any of the diagrams here? I mean, there isn't even red X's or anything, there is literally nothing on my browser. I did see it in the pending diagram, though.
