The Detroit Theodore Levin Courthouse pt.1

While working on buildings for the Crime Game, The Family, I have been focusing on getting the old Postal Building / Courthouse finished.

Its actually on its 4th full version and about 1millionth revision of that. Im so much happier with this version of it, as with new resource material I have been able to get the exterior pretty accurate measured by each marble slab.

This is what it actually is supposed to be :

The current version has the first two lower sections completed looking pretty sweet. Going to post when it has the brickwork and winows in place. Then gonna work on making the textures better.

Some great advice from Dave Young had me go about it making use of textures much better than I had done previously. For a huge building (and its huge) hopefully wont take up too much mem.

-till next time

Yeah I grew up in the Detroit area. If you know where the airport is, I lived across the street. Romulus.

Needs more work touching up textures, adding weathered effect. Also to reduce the surfaces count down significantly.
