OK, Decided to Build a City Instead!

Hey guys,

In my last post I said I was going to start writing the new script.

Well, while thinking about the script I decided that I'm going to have to change the city in which Xam and Power Dog live.  Why? Because I just don't have it in me to try to model the entire city of New York in any accurate way.  Instead, I will just create a city with all the locations in the script.

So, what will my fictional city be called?  No idea, but I have started building it...

Above are 4 buildings I'm constructing.  It's a very low-res pic and because the sky is deep blue and the ground is grey it looks as though the building are blue and grey.  That is, however, the reflection of the environment in the glass of the buildings. In case you can't tell, the building on the far left is all glass!  :)

Now, it's taken me a week to do this much but I don't think this will be the average (one week = 4 buildings). Every city has a handful of unique buildings but the majority are boxes without any real character.  I plan on doing two more high rise towers to give my city a unique skyline, and then I will add a mess of boxy buildings to fill it out.  I'm hoping I only have another week left until my city is done.

So, that's where I am. 

I will, of course, keep you updated.

Later!
