Hi guys, here's a new project i've been working on recently. C&C are welcome.

Its a nice render, but if you add more "entourage"(cars, people, etc) and maybe a little more environment (roads, background buildings), it will help tremendously. Another thing that may help is to export the Sketchup wireframe and overlay it on your render in Photoshop (or Gimp, or whatever photo-processing software you use). That will define the edges better - make the building "pop" out from the rest of the render. The "clouds effect" is cool near the top of the building, but doesn't make sense near the bottom.

I'm looking forward to more!

Is this a commissioned work? The reason I ask is because American airlines is based in Dallas and I have not heard a thing about a new corporate HQ.

Thank you all for your comments!
d12dozr : thanks for the advice, i'll try the things you said and see how the renders look like.
Thanks you!
solo: no, this is not a real project, this is an imaginary building i made, this was an effort in which i was trying to approach american architecture. I added the 'american airlines' logo, because i thought that it would fit perfect with the buildings appearance.
Thank you very much for your comments!
