the sides don't really match each other, there are gaps at the corners...

Yes, this was an old model! 😳 😄

@prisoner said:

Very nice model 👍

Thanks!

@prisoner said:

Medieval stuff is what I'm modeling too

Where can see your models? 😄

@prisoner said:

What makes me a bit dizzy here is looking at the right side of the building, with the small windows. Maybe its just me, but I thinks it looks like beeing of a totally different scale than the front and reference guy.

The windows are small because it is a barn and farmers dont wants that the sun enters through the windows... 😉

@prisoner said:

To me, calling those models "bad" seems to be a clever way of fishing for compliments 😉

Sorry if here is a mistake with the title of the thread... 😉
I dont go searching compliments but critics 😞

@prisoner said:

I like the arc and the details.

Thanks

It's .png with alpha, you can use it in any render engine if needed

Did you create this? If so, how? Vue?

Masterfull work Roberto. 👍 👍

😳

@unknownuser said:

The images of the progress stages are very instructive.

Yeah, i like to put my WIP because i can have better critiques and learn more...

@unknownuser said:

How did you come upon this fine building in the middle of Indiana?

I tend to search on Google Images

@unknownuser said:

Was this a project you decided to do because you found and liked the buiilding...

yes, i found the photo, I liked the building and constructed the building only on this photo (I think it is funny to imagine how is the rest part of the building 😄 ).

@unknownuser said:

By the way, I think it is a shame such a fine building was replaced by a parking lot, especially after being placed on the register of historic places. This sort of thing happens way too much.

I agree with you, but progress is progress

@unknownuser said:

How did you model the human figures the eagles and other complicated decorative features?

I do not model or persons or sculptures 😞

Thanks, Jim Smith! 👍

@urgen said:

...176 layers? 😲 titanic work! 😄 👍

I dont think so... See what makes Bert Monroy with Photoshop and Illustrator: http://www.bertmonroy.com/fineart/text/fineart_damen.htm
HE is a titan! 😄

Thanks!

They say people with glass houses shouldn't throw stones. I think that they also say "make sure you have good fences so your neighbours don't have to watch you run naked to the hot tub / pool".

Looks like a fun model, was thinking if the second story balcony extended over the deep end of the pool it could make for some fun times.

No problemo! 😎

I read that some italians call it the "typewriter" (máquina de escribir, in spanish).

Yes it is very squared!

We can call it "mazacote" or "tocho" in spanish. I dont know the translation of this two words in english but is sure that google has not the answer... 😆
