Good, that blue building looked bad. The Columnade Building is nice but yes, it is disproportionate. Just needs to be shorter and in a smaller block. Or keep it in the same block and make a park around-ish.

i think the blue building is awesome, not to big or wide at all. also the columned building is very nice. Does it have some significance or is it just another building.

keep it up

I agree. It looks awesome behind the skyline. It will be even better when there are structures behind the port.

The beachside is also just beautiful. The HK-inspired complexes are working perfect for the beachside.

I'm not sure if I like any of those new buildings, they all seems so big and ungainly, the black one adds only flatness to the pointed skyline.

Aleks, i will. Treras, the columnade was supposed to be a stock exchange.
patrick, thanks for your honesty. If you mean the new buildings of the peninsula, i totally agree.
Peter, I'm working on integrating the port (the ski-lounge laboratories played a part in that).
thanks everybody, update tonight

I managed to make a new building, a corporate tower of 85 floors and 272 meters (892ft) to the Skybar's glass rooftop. It will fill the lot left empty from the Financial center. A mall is still in construction between the new and former towers.





As you can see from the last shot I can'r render anymore.

This is how it would be if it were 362 meters tall:

Very attractive tower. It flows well with the surrounding buildings, and that skyline shot was fantastic.

Appreciate it Dac.
From that Shot you can see The Bauen and Bank Leumí. I'm planning on drawing the hebrew characters - eventually.
The New Tower is the South American HQ of huge intl mining corporation Rio Tinto, I'¡ll update with pretty company logos soon.
I'll probably be mixing real and fantasy companies but they are all real for now.

I like that shot too. It's very clean and futuristic. A full-sized pic with that kind of quality would be better of course. The city is starting to get pretty big, keep it up.
