But I think it would be very difficult but you can expect the first version about sunday.

Try to finish everything you have started before you start on something new, if you don't do it like this you will have a lot of unfinished buildings and no one will use them because they're not finished.

I know that I'm not finish any of my buildings but i try to practise because I'm not so good yet that i can draw anything that i can make up.

I just "finished" a building that i drew some time ago.
I just add more, much more texturing and shadow.
hope this one is starting to look like something.

I made a new hotel and i would like to hear some suggestions please, because i want to "finish" this one.
In my oppinion the shadow is a bit dark but I've been drawing for several hours so i don't gonna change that today.
And maybe it fits better in the tropical climate, but I play 90% in the temperate climate.

you know all your gfx look promising but you never ever finish them

What do you mean? He uploads .grfs too. Aren't they working?

I'd say the general look of the buidling is too bright. Look at the other buildings around the one you made. The new one definitely doesn't look like it comes from the same world.

And the shadow is wrong. Since the middle tower slowly merges with the main body of the building, the shadow sould cover a big part of the left-side of the main building (at the top) and then slowly merge with the middle tower.

You're design skills seem to have become excellent (the building design is cool!). You just have to put in a little more work into picking the exact right color, and then everything will be perfect (it might take multiple times to get it right though, but I guess you already knew that).

Oh and one last thing: this building look too rough, you should use more than 2 shades of grey to give a texture to the walls of your building, that would lessen the "strong random noise" feeling I get when I watch your building, and make it look more like a real wall texture. It could also be that you are trying to make a texture effect using colors that are too far away one from the other, thus giving this impression.

Allright, I'll tyr to fix this later today i have to be at school in 45 minutes So i have to go now you will see the next version about 3 pm today.

here is an update:

You are geting there. But this where the trees are, this light grey is to light. I think it must be a bit tarker

well they all look unfinished to me they all lack something.

Pretty good(better than me) but I too think there is something missing

Perhaps you sould add more texture to the roof. Also by trying to build up more shoadow from below it looks better

Here is my new hotel.
- I made a new roof with parking space (maybe later with some cars).
- I canged the wihte near the trees now it's the same white as the white at the right side of the hotel.

So the parking is on the 15th floor... wouldnt the entire building be taken up with the upramps?

Make it a helipad, like the Burj-al-Arab.... now that would be cool.

Good idea.
I'll fix it.

Or one very long car elevator.

I've made a new building but i think that the roof is a bit empty.
Does enyone has some suggestions?

Here is an updated version of tokyo's sky city.
I added more texturing now.
If there are some comments i would like to hear them.
I think the road in the front looks silly, I'll replace that by the orginal ttd road graphics style.

finnaly something that looks almost finished!
yes realy replace that road and that red frame around entrance is too bright it stands out too much

Some changes...
