My City Project

[Tolbert]

Thank you both

I hope ill find some time to do more this weekend. As for Niemeyer, your right. I really love his work, hes defenitly one of the greatest modernistic architects ever!

Lovely work, I think this one's turning out better straight out of sketchup that rendered. It really gives it that "architecty" feel to it.

[Tolbert]

Thanks Aleks


Found some time to finish two other Buildings on central square of my city. Hope u like

[Flamesrule]

Thank you!

Finished another Building...












South part of the central square is now finshed... next will be the northern part i think

[Flamesrule]

A modern look with a taste of older architecture.

Great work! Your city would look great rendered.

Like this city...the lowrise and mix of buildings really works.Has
an overall pleasing feeling....very Euro looking.

[Foun10Head-X]

Very, very impressive Tolbert, this is a gonna be a great city in the making, I believe.

I love the layout and how you mixed things up with the low rise buildings.

Keep up the good work, and Happy Holidays.

[Tolbert]

Thank you for your comments guys

i got a litte problem with zooming in the model.

looks like this:



and it prevents me from doing any further details...

do you know a way to fix this ?

[burjdubai91]

You're one of the first 3d modelers I know of and admire whose models look even better even without renders. Your designs are clean and a beautiful fusion of old and new. This is definitely one city I would love to live in. Cheers!

Is the texture behind it double faced?

[Tolbert]

I dont think so, as i got the problem on all buildings the textured an the ones without.

Seems to be a general problem with zooming.

[Innsertnamehere]

thats when the camera is half-way into the building..... it does that no matter what, as some of the wall is behind it, and another part is in front.

[Flamesrule]

Nope, don't think so. Maybe just back up form the building? This never happened to me...... This only happened to me when I am using Indigo Renderer.....................



Nice building BTW.

[Vellu]

Beautiful buildings, as always, and a very nice pedestrian friendly layout.

That problem you're having is a "feature" of Sketchup. When a model gets too large geographically (the model covers a large area of land and/or water), SU doesn't allow you to zoom very close to a object. There are too solutions that I know of:
- Make the model geographically smaller. Hiding the geometry doesn't help, it has to be deleted (it looks like you have a huge body of water around your city, delete this, if possible).
- Model the buildings in a separate file and then add them as components into your city.

I have SU6, so I don't know it they have fixed this in the newer versions.

[Tolbert]

Thank you Vellu, i'll try it that way




I wish everyone a happy new year!
