Aaron Graham's BATs

Wow, those chairs.  That...is some graphics skills.

I like the mottling on the brick texture, but I think I would reduce the contrast a little.  It seems like too much range between it's natural darks and lights for tan brick in the same building unless it has waterproofing issues and/or has recently rained.  It seems most noticeable on the upper half of the building, and that back wall (right side, second picture).  But, that's just an opinion, and I have to say the building is otherwise stunning.

[Aaron Graham]

Johnson Apartments

All I did is just change the bricks and the model of the building again, I will have to move the chair set and the plants around to these two model and also I will have to come up with some more store names, so much for a batter like me.

On the model the uvw is a little jack up because I did not attach the edit part of the building, and fro those who does not know that's the area over the parking garage area.I also see in the brown brick model the grime is to strong so I will be turning that down a bit

The pictures below are the red brick (strawberry) and the brown bricks (chocolate)

Okay, a small update I have added a new store the name is Tony's Cleaners, for those Sim who have and must wish there clothes to be fresh can clean, a lot of these apartments I'm sure does not have a cleaners so it's a grand idea to have them around.





I was playing around on this one. :O it will not be release so cry and pout.

[art128]

I lol'd at the flying chairs.

Anyway nice looking update. The textures are wonderful as usual, and I like the idea of the newest shop.

[Aaron Graham]

art128- Thank you, lol.

Johnson Apartments


Here's another update, I have added more store. Starting from the left side of the building to the right side, I have a Tony's Cleaners, GameStop, Carol's Barber shop, and a Hong Kong chinese restaurant.

I have a question does the store glass look okay?  :whatevs:



Edit: Here's a the night renders.

NYBT Park Tower Apartments

Okay guys, I have added the trees and the bushes on the ground floor again, all I have to do on this model is fix the cutains on the other sides of the building re-texture the HVAC unit, decrease the reflection on the small roof junks, make new rail for the front of the building by scratch again, texture the garage area and do the night lights not the windows, I did that back in 2011 around august I think. I have to add direct lights and a few omnies here and there.

I hope you guys like the glass texture now, I tried my best to fix it the best way I can, oh yea and do not mine the black lines on the faced of the building I will remove them.

[divadarya]

Wow, Aaron...fantastic as usual!

Especially like the newest apartments that accommodate more people; New York has lots of those in unexpected places.

Which ones of these are available now?

[art128]

Looks rather nice! I like the bottom details.

[mrbisonm]

Why am I not surprised to see another "chef d'oeuvre" from you? Amazing is the realism that you apply to your models.

Okay here are the night lights, I still have to add the spot light on the terraces and work on the glass a little more. Not much I have said but it's almost done, I can't believe it, and I have started this last year thank you to Heblem.

[weixc812]

[Jack_wilds]

Johnson Apartments

Here's a small update on the Johnson Apartments, I still need to do a little more work on the lots. O yea, and I hope you guys like the what the lot is handling the slopes, as you can see the whole lot is leveled, it's makes me think i should to that to the Franklin, Graham and Hogan Apartments.

And I want to say thank you Francis90b for exporting the 4 models for me.   

[Dantes]

I do not remember the last time I wrote something here. Time for a comment.
Your new buildings look great.    I love the details. 
The solder still looks a bit empty. Otherwise, everything looks fantastic. Respect. 

[cmdp123789]

Are you releasing the four colors? Cause it would be great if you could upload the four buildings... you know as a pack, for more variety... I kinda like all of them, so please release the four of them 

[Aaron Graham]

Dantes- Thank you, I am planning on adding some more to the lot but not to much.

cmdp123789- Thank you for stopping by and yes I am releasing all four buildings as a pack.

[Girafe]

Looks nice, good job 

two things I am not confident with:


The bright color of the roof tiles.
The saturation / colors of the chairs.
