Nov 7, 2014 I'm making a sci-fi city and this is where i'll post some of my plans for it on here and from time to time when i have a question about things ill put a poll up. I'm starting work on this in single player where i have access to World Edit and other tools. Even after Athion goes live, I will most likely build most of the bigger buildings in SP still. I'm going to start with the government buidling and work from there. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ Nov 7, 2014 These are both models of government buildings I'm going to make. There is no real detail to either of them. most of the detail objects on there are sort of obvious. Both of them would end up being about the same height-ish. What I'm wondering is, which of the choices below would look better (please answer poll below to which spoiler looks better)? NOTE: the glowstone is not part of the actual model its a plate so i can see a difference between the model and the ground. also, that has changed on #2 there is glowstone there too i added it after took the pictures. #1 (height about proportional to the length and width) top(ish) view of all of it support beams for the park area some sort of tram station to connect hanger/storage building (right) and the government building (left) #2 (height proportions were completely off compared to the length and width proportions) topish view different view mini-model /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ Nov 8, 2014 Some things i plan to make in what can be described as "Cut" sections and will make it a full length section. its like when you make a design on a wall elsewhere and then you just add something in-between like a window and then repeat. I also decided for a fact that my monorail system will be hanging down instead of ontop of it /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ Nov 20, 2014 Over the past two weeks, I've just been working on how i want to do cars and roads. The following pictures are the compiled pictures of what i have been doing and basically decided on. these 3 pictures show how I plan to do roads, cars, & bridges. road & car plans /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
the shape is good but there's hardly any depth, will this come at a later stage or is that just the style of the build?
@leg01as as i said in the beginning of the second section there isn't much detail and that these are models. so the detail will be coming in a later section of the building process. i started making models before i make large builds to get my thoughts together but the second one is probably something like a 1:5 scale & the first i got no idea about it as i said its a weird one. @Oregton the glowstone was a plate so i could see a difference between the land and the model. the glowstone will not a part of the actual build. I also changed that on #2 since i took those pictures. i will add that up above so HOPEFULLY no one else will get confused about that.
@terminator0117 #2 is better because of a lot of things. But to make this short... The second one looks better. Sincerely, @musicdude7432
@musicdude7432 Thats because the 2nd was built for detail and the first was not made for detail. It was to get my ideas out. In the end I will build both but I what i want to know is what looks better as a government building. in the end they will both be a good amount above cloud level, Both of these are just the overall shape of what the buildings will look like, and at the beginning of each spoiler I said what the proportions were for each one.
In my opinion the shape of the first one fits the purpose of a government building better. Second is just some skyscraper and could also b a place where people live. But the first one is clearly some beaurocratic building. Sure the second one looks better due to details, but that was not the point
