Very nice! I kinda like that house. 

[cameron1991]

Ive finally found enough time to use the BAT, so ive retextured the walls and windows, and put small frames around them, heres a low quality preview render, it makes the roof tiles look bad, but its all I had time for...

[kwakelaar]

I can't really make out the new wall texture as the images are a bit small for my old eyes.
A few roof vents and a chimney will break up the big roof a bit, something you could consider.

[jacqulina]

very nice work you are doing 

[Naryanna]

Looking good but I would have to agree with kwakelaar on roof things.

[joelevan]

I am totally jumping ahead here, but what is the value of these homes going to be? R$ or R$$?

Joel

[Cali]

you should have one model at R$, and another at a higher value R$$. by the way, they are beautiful

[cameron1991]

Thanks for all of your comments!

Im sorry I havnt updated in a long time, But I just havnt had the time (Homework... )

kwakelaar I think ill put a small air conditioning unit behind the garage or something, and as for the chimney, When I think of a house, I dont think of a chimney on it as my house in RL is heated entirely by electricity, so I will probably only have one on a R$ version.

joelevan and Cali Im thinking of making both R$ and R$$ versions. Im going to keep the Plaster texture shown in the picture in my earlier post for the R$$, and im thinking of giving the R$ version a wooden texture and tin roof.

And to wrap this post up, Like I said before....
THANKS FOR ALL YOUR COMMENTS GUYS!

This is a lot based off a cool image cameron saw on the internet. he  still needs to do the night lights, re-texture the roof and add finer details but he needs more images for the billboard. So he thought I would start this thread so that SC4dev members can post an image here and he will TRY to put it onto a billboard (Remember to keep within the site rules, Absolutely NO pornographic content is to be posted here )

Heres the original image


Heres the BAT

You don't seem to have much faith in us And not to worry, Colyn has already made his own billboards.

[derek_pearce]

yeah but are his attached to a house?

[cameron1991]

Sorry I havn't updated in more than a month, I went on a 2 week holiday to Australia, had a mountain of home work to do and (Heres what took most of my time away  ) started playing Final Fantasy IX

Also a note about submitting your images, Please make sure they are 2x as wide as it is high (Or fairly close to) so it will not look stretched when it is put on the billboard.

[cameron1991]

I'm sorry that I haven't updated lately, Homework is catching up on me, But I managed to sit down and play around with gmax for a while and I tried some night lights. They don't look very good at the moment because I'm still experimenting with them, What I'm trying to achieve is a soft glow in each window.

Heres a progress picture


I'm also having a problem with the perspective viewport

Can anyone help? Its incredibly annoying, especially when I'm trying to texture things...

[derek_pearce]

hmm never seen this  problem before and Cameron i have some images for you ill send them via msn next time ur on  keep up the briliant work m'boy looks amazing

[HabLeUrG]

try this: select your perfective view then at he menu, customize / Viewport Configuration / Active default lighting / 2 lights then click ok should be done 

[Glenni]

this happened when you tried lighting it right?



Edit: nevermind HabLeUrG beat me to it.

[cameron1991]

Thanks HabLeUrG for your help, Glenni: Yes it did happen when I added lights but it stopped when I followed HableUrg's directions.

Heres a quick small update, Ive Redone the front door and window of the house, re textured the roof, put in an air conditioning unit/ heat pump and a small satellite dish for each house.

[cameron1991]

Ive started adding new billboards, so heres a pic of the work so far


Spiderman, Harry Potter and the SCUBS logo were requested by DEREK

I might move the second floor window to the bottom floor because it is in the way of some of the lettering.
So what do you guys think?

I agree, otherwise the house and billboard looks good.

That are wonderful looking billboards, cameron1991
