Thanks everyone for your comments and suggestions... I'm working on a site plan for a car dealership right now but once I get done with it I will get back to doing a rendering, adding duct work, and framing the windows so they don't look as if they're floating!
Thanks, it was mentioned to me earlier but I forgot to change it. This project isn't going to go away anytime soon so I am going to fix it in future renderings.
You can find good discount on CS2 books at borders and such since they are outdated. Many of the tutorials at lynda will work for cs2 as well unless they are specific to a feature in cs3. It is work the small monthly fee for the wealth of information they have there.

John beat me to it. I would light some of the apartments to give it more of a realistic look. Maybe shoot a render from the parking lot level up the front of the building.

I think overall the night render is good. Just get those lights to soften up a bit.
Thanks man... I totally understand where you're coming from! They want me to render these scenes but what they don't understand is that I've got to re-render each scene every time they change something... but hey, who's complaining...
I'll be picking it up for a binge play this weekend (with a break for mother's day). I haven't been playing my 360 as much as I used to. Can't wait! You can find my gamertag on my blog.
Ahh... it really isn't that hard! Funny thing is that I thought this process was hard to do but when I took and second and tried it I found out it was pretty simple. Now I'm just trying to learn different techniques!
Yea... the client wanted a straight on view without it being a 2d elevation. Maybe I still need to play around with camera angles and field of view to get something a little better. Thanks Daniel!
I used Dennis' watercolor technique from the Post Processing Tutorial Forum. I'm still playing around with the styles to try to get the best result but I think I'm getting there!
