With such a narrow building containing glass walls on both sides, everybody outside will be seeing the workers...
In other words, no sleeping at work in this building. $%Grinno$%
Those who work there, whatever they work with, must really be efficient! ::)
I have been following the development of this model from the very beginning with great interest. After having seen the pictures of the original building I am a big fan of this model and I can hardly wait to see it finished. So far I have been able to keep my enthusiasm under control, but I am not sure I can hold it for much longer.
Every picture I see of the progress makes me wanna have it ... !!!
Great work Vester! :thumbsup:
That looks very good, I cant wait to see what the finished product will be &apls
Vester that is looking very good...
Here is an update for you all:

Well the front is almost there. ;D
Awesome work, breath of fresh air to world of bats &apls
Ooh, the model looks great! It kinda looks like a hotel, but that's just a guess and usually my guesses are wrong. :D
Anyways, great progress and I can't wait to see the finished project.

Yes you are right ......

This is going to have a very special function in the game, but that is all I am going to tell you.....
that's a great bat :thumbsup:

Moved the towers free of the main building. In the space between the towers, and the towers and the main building it going to be glass.
Started working on nightlights:

Hope the rest is going to as good as the first one set.
I'm really looking forward to this one. It has a pretty unique design! :thumbsup:
It was inspired by the "old" Roskilde Amtsgård (County Hall). When I say old, it means the county was closed down by the 1st of January 2007.
My model is a bit different from the original building. The lower buildings:

in fact the centre building is no higher than the low buildings:

Had to change the beam/column system.
Different, but you can recognize the different elements.
Vester,
This building is surely unique and in RL I'm sure that it's the round windows that give the building it's characteristics. But the round windows are just rubbing me the wrong way. But that's what makes everyone different....there opinion. As for the actual work you are doing on the building it look awesome. Your work looks very realistic next to the RL building. The work you are doing with the night lights looks great as well.
Keep up the great work, I will be following this one very closely.
Robin ;)
Haven a second look at the nightlight pictures, it seems a bit dark so here is a small update:

Vester that is some amazing devolpment... So you say the county is gone, what happend did anther county merge with the old??? Is this going to be a new city hall???
I like this this is very cool lookin - look foward to the finished project
<Dexter, Boy Genius> Interestink (Interesting) </Dexter, Boy Genius>
beautifull work you are doing my friend &apls &apls
Would make a great city hall or police station for an industrial city, must be the brutalist concrete design of it, some dirtying down could be interesting.
cool...any progress on this Vester?
Have been having a neck that has been "keeling" me and all the joy of batting.
Sitting all day in front of a computer at work, haven't made things better.
Well my neck is getting better and am hoping to be back batting in two weeks.
Hogmeister: The RL building is a town hall from the 1st of January 2007. Before then it was a county hall. The 1st of Jan. 2007 the counties was closed down and the numbers of municipalities was cut down.
It looks very nice.
Finally some progress:

Have reworked the lower buildings on the right side of the main entrance.
Hope you like the change.
At least! I really like this building and I'm glad you continue with it :thumbsup:
I've only one small point; could you make the nightlights a bit brighter? I'm afraid you can hardly see them in the game. Especially in zoom 3 and less.
TY M.
Have been modelling a little more and add some more lights:

As a result of a comment on the private BSC forums, I changed the width of the main building:

What do you think ?
Looks great Arne :thumbsup:
It's now about 4x4 tiles I guess? Anyway I really like the nightlights at the base of the building, they turned out very well :)
Very good guess, M. It's around 4,1 x 3.55 tiles.
Barby as offered to lot this :) Let see what magic she can bring to it.
Hope RippleJet can get some use out of this. ;)
I like this a lot and am looking forward to lotting it for you.
Thank you. Looking forward to you do your magic.
Here is final preview:

Looking at the pictures, I can see that I have changed a few textures, nothing major.
That's a wikked looking BAT &apls &apls
moin vester,
that looks amazing, there are just a few bater around who can recreate so real_looking!
... how do you get so neat looking textures, my stuff looks always so blurry ... ? &cry2

Guessing that you are using gmax. If you are using max, you have to change to Catmull-rom filter on Renderer tab (press F10)
(no it's not something you drink :P)
moin vester,
:D thanks a lot :thumbsup:
so, i think i'm geting max for a good reason now! :P

... and with ChrisAdams new Bat4max, its a lot easier to play around with the nightlights and the modelling, as you can easy see a pretty good preview of the changes you are doing.
Finally some progress on this project.
Barby has started lotting this:

Great thanks :thumbsup:
This is looking really good. Looking forward to plopping this one in-game! The round windows really give a special character to the building.
Hello Vester, Jack wilds here...
Thought I'd pop in and see whats-up... and I found an architectural study -I like the bat, its textures and Barby's lotting has helped it 'a-lot' too... :thumbsup:
-It appears to be a not-so-secret llama research facility :P $%Grinno$% -the plain white one would be some office type... ???
then I'd add is some color to make its form 'pop' a bit more -not sure how to pull it off thou... and make it a hospital
Jack
I agree with Jack_wilds about the hospital. It really looks like one. It's real nice. :thumbsup:
One question - what kind of animals is there in the first picture? ()what() and why? Or is this building a madhouse and the animals are in fact psychos? :D
Please ignore the animals ;D I made this on a basic lot and it has yet to be modded. There will not be any wild animals around when it is finished.
It is not a hospital either.
Well then, let's play the guessing game. ;)
To me it looks somewhat like a school, but I'ld somehow go for some type of governmental building. Some type of ministry maybe??? We've only got Water and Rubbish so far, there's still space to fill the district.
Anyway, excellent work on the Bat and the Lot. &apls
