Nice!

Hello Simo. Thats some really good work

All Id recommend is a bit more texturing (maybe random pixelling) to make it seems a bit less 'clean' or 'plastic'. Otherwise its great work

[Simo]

The idea was to make it a GRAND entrance, as if it were a real resort, rather than New York style hotel entrance. Perhaps the red colouring threw you off? It is supposed to be a solid cover, instead of a tarp type entrance.

I have done a few random pixels, but the more I do, the worse it tends to look.

Never mind, I'll keep fiddling.

Edit: Ok.

Exhibit A: Original, lightly textured.
Exhibit B: Medium texture, roof access added.
Exhibit C: Same as 'B', entrance canopy changed to look more solid, and some sort of logo on the front.

Well, personally, I think C is much better. The few extra pixels in the slightly different shade makes so much difference. Nothing in real life is perfectly clean and even the tiniest shade change can help the sprites look good. I try to look at the original buildings too, to see how they have managed to get their look.

Keep up the great work! Im looking forward to a new building set

Looking a little further forward.

I call it the 'Conn-X Grand Towers'.

The first tower is 10 stories, while the second is 13.
The 2 middle 'discs' are a mixture of the main foyer, lounge bars and restaurants.

The large area in front of the towers will involve a lot of outdoor entertainment with a beach style pool.

Enjoy
