G'day iceman2117,
I agree, superb work but I do have to ask, have you scaled those bricks correctly? According to the overall size of the structure and the usual dimensions for human use used by builders, I conclude that the bricks are 'scaled' so as to be about 8 or 10 inches (200 or 250 mm) high by 32 or 40 inches (800 or 1000 mm) wide (they're BIG bricks). In my experience, most 'house bricks' of the type depicted here, are only 3"x 9" (75mm x 225mm), which would mean that there should be about 10 courses between the top of the foundation and the base of the window, rather than the five that are currently visible...
...incidentally, if the 'view' in the second image is to be regularly achievable, I would leave the underside polygons of the chimney stack 'tops' intact, as their 'omission' (as is the case at the moment), just looks utterly wrong...

G'day iceman2117,

That's not a sky rendered certainly have you recognized immediately..."..
...which, I guess, is fair enough but I must ask why you would do it this way? I would simply substitute a sky background for the 'black' one during the rendering process (there is an option in 3ds Max - assuming that's the program you're using - that allows for this) and doing it that way will 'overcome' any issues like the one under discussion. I could understand the need not to have a sky in the first image but it doesn't take all that much effort (actually less than it would to do it the way you do now), to 'add' the sky background into the render for the second image - the only 'penalty' might be a slightly longer render time.
Incidentally, it didn't occur to me that you had used "cut & paste" to add the sky in the second image, I just naturally presumed it was part of the original render, given that is the way I would do it...
...also, I have just noticed that the tiles on the roof of the 'attic' windows appear to be 'out of scale' relative to the ones on the roof proper - you might want to "look into that" as well...
