      Hi All,
      I have recently put into the Google Warehouse my model of the Galway Cathedral, Ireland.

      GalwayCathedral.jpg
      3D Warehouse model page

      It is awaiting an approval for GE. I have been modeling it occasionally in evenings.
      Have taken ca 50 pictures and had to take some measurements as I have had problems finding out right sizes of hardly visible parts.

      Unfortunately it is the model for Google Earth, so it doesn't have all details it could have. πŸ˜„

      Cheers
      Tomasz

        Looks good, Gaius is the expert on old arch. (Hopefully he'll take a look)

          Sweet model!
          I'm sure it will be accepted for the 3d layer.

            Hehe... It is not even that old πŸ˜‰
            Anyway, I wrote my opinion in the rating over the WareHouse.

            So here is just another comment on something interesting I noticed; I also examined the model in Monochrome view (you know, you can "judge" the modeling quality in that rendering mode better πŸ˜‰ ) I see that you used png images with transparent cutouts in the belfries and interestingly, those partly transparent faces are also transparent in Monochrome mode (obviously not a "modeling mistake" but another weirdness SU has with transparent images).

            I was afraid that some of the transparency bugs would ruin the GE model but it seems to be just fine in GE, too. πŸ‘

            Gai...

              Gaeius, what happens when you run out of old buildings to model?

                You can never run out of them. There are archaeological excavation revealing "new" ones all the time πŸ˜‰

                  I've been there! hehe
                  (just after christmas... I was visiting some friends in Dublin... and after that I had a trip around the island... awsome place)

                  As far as my few photos of it are showing, this is a great model!
