Ok then - I'm in!

I got 'odd architecture'. I think I am going to try to design some sort of house.

Good luck to everyone else! :beer:

ah, Amsterdam - it's been far too long! Unfortunately flights from here are a bit too expensive. I'm confused though - picasso, alice in wonderland? Is that a name of a hotel or something?

Anyway - here are a few sketches that I have been working on. I think I am going to go with something a bit like the bottom two, though I may try my hand at a few of the other buildings as well.

nice! I could definitely see some kind of Dr. Seuss-ian inspiration coming in handy here. :)

hey - thanks guys! :beer:

Started laying out some of the basic shapes. Decided to give it an underground area. The dome is going to be a green house and there will be a central elevator. I might also make the rooms above rotate.

nice start!! I wanna see more now!

Thanks gster!

Here is a small update - I have been adding some details to the dome of my main building.

I have also been trying to model a tree to go inside the dome. It probably took a lot longer than it should have and I am sure I did not go about doing it in the best way. oh well.

oh way cool :)

Very nice !
For the leaves, I see a lot of people using only plane and a material with opacity. Never try it.
But yours look cool anyway.
For the building, great concept :attn:
Looking forward

Nice one Arran, I really like the feel of the buildings and the tree that you've made.
