One thing- there are no buildings in DC that tall. The height of buildings act limits everything to 11 stories.

Basic guidelines for modeling DC-

EVERYTHING is Neoclassical.

Anything that is not Neoclassical is in the International style.

Essentially it looks like a typical European city except with different road markings.

I know those are just for proportion. Could you PLEASE refer me to some good DC buildings. It would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Type in dmdrake on the DLS. He did four DC buildings but most of his buildings could be used in any US city.

 

[strench707]

Hi Davis. I built an entire series of 'CityScape Blocks' for the NEC. I used photos from each city to insure the 'look and feel'. They are available in large (10meg) city bundles at the TPR Download Depot or as separate files HERE ON MY SITE. They are all pretty lo-poly/lo-impact. Each comes in two types, with and without trees.

REMEMBER to reference where you got your content. If you use these files, your users will need to know where to get them.

This is what they look like

​

Great looking route so far, keep on! Dave

 

[strench707]
