thanks terminator :)

Dont know how I missed this!

Nice work Marlon, would be great to see this textured in a nice scene.

that no problem, atleast you saw it now :p

cheers steve, yeah ill get it all textured when i learn how to and finish some other projects to put abit of things in my online portfolio since there isnt really anything that great in it yet ;)

Looks great; what is the poly count on that beast?

I'm going to guess...about 180,000-225,000?

cheers man,

the model is about 80,000 lol .... ;P most of it believe it or not is the top part which is at 30,000

marlon

Nice work. I'm going to join the rest in saying I'd like to see some textures on your model :)

thanks for the comment calvin :) when i do learn how to texture i will no worry about that ;)

sorry double post even though i pressed the button once :confused:

wow, very impressive model! :beer:
What is your modeling method? Interested for it if i ever try to model buildings myself.
Well done man.

i've gotta say that after seeing the W.I.P. i thought you were working off the few images you showed us, and so i was amazed at the level of detail you were able to obtain from just those few pics...

sadly, i now know better. the model is still flawless, though. what i would like to see is the capitolio building after some type of horrific aftermath. i'm not saying 'death to those who live or work in such a place', but i would like to see your imagination at work had such a place been a mark of destruction.

being able to perfectly recreate such a beautiful and timeless landmark is definitely within your capability... but how would you go about the destruction of such a beautiful and innocent place?

lot of work there, looks ready for a terrorist attack ;) how long did you work on this one?? looks great! needs a bit of wear maybe?? A bit of weather wear.

Well done MJ thats a good looking building.

Did you do all the floors and the tiny tables and chairs and people and stuff :P.

So, when are you blowing it up :D

@ chris - of course i made all the floors and tiny tables :p just kidding lol ... cheers man. i will be blowing up this beast as soon as i learn how to use this program to do it ;)

@ mirek - thanks man ... yeah was alot of work, didnt relise how much :p it took me about 2 months i think though i didnt work on it everyday, only on the weekends since i was still at school and still now thats why i have been abit inactive atm.

@ neo - hey man, thanks for the comment ... i will definetly one day go back to this and make some sort of destruction/aftermath with this model and many more aswell. i was thinking of recreating the same scene as the new series "Heroes" where Peter Patrally destroys NY with his own abilities...

@ meredith - thanks dude ... well i dont really have a real method of modeling buildings i just generally get all the references i need soo i get a basic 3d model in my head and then get the general proportions from there and work upwards ... if you go ahead about making a building and need some help, just give us a nudge and hopefully i will be free to help you :)

thanks everyone for the comments and suggestions :D

cheers, Marlon J
