Awesome and welcome! I just wanna say that if you need anything changed just ask me.

Anyways, it's awesome that your making a city! I don't think you should add frames to windows like on the last shot because when your city gets big all the small details will make your city slow. That's only if your making a big city, which to me it looks like you are.

I love the grid, nice, easy flowing, straight, curves, all that jazz....and the name is awesome.

Cool roof tops and density. Its good that your starting with the smaller buildings cause then your taller buildings will look great surrounded by dense smaller towers.

welcome tasco! nice little city so far

i agree with Tanster, that smaller buildings will look great around the larger ones in the future.

Check you computer files/documents, and if it's still in there, load it into sketch-up once you install it.

That's wierd.

Very nice. I love the Art-Deco-Modern tower. Sleek, and nice. Did you restart the whole city all over again?
