Why don't you make them real windows too. It's not a problem to have triangular-shaped windows in a glazing structure, even if the roof is above them. It would look better IMO.
What do you think of this?
I have replaced the grey panels with windows.

You mind if I make a .grf file that has all your currently released buildings.
This file will get updated often, and will be for WINDOWS and DOS.

:idea: Good Idea?

You'll need to send your current DOS versions to me first though. :cry:
Its a good idea, but be a little patient, i am working on a Total Town Replacement set when this is finished i need help to create the various .grf files, all my buildings ll be there.
The new Gold coated windows tower, gives me a lot of work, untill now this one gives me a hell of a job. 8)

I try to introduce more diffrent shapes and colors. If all buildings would be a kind a grey the town ll look verry dull.
The round tower is a verry difficult one. For now i am finished with it and like to know what you nice people think of it.

Yes :)

Yes but it still looks like it stands between the two buildings :wink:

At the moment yes compared to the rest of the town, i am planing to create two more colorfull buildings to bring some more color in town, i think when they are finished this golden tower ll be less eye catching.

I like a lot your building graphics, these are really awesome!! indeed, the only point is that they have too much plain bright colors. For example, in the parasols, they look too plain, some shading would make them perfect.
Also, for example, the blue tall building, looks a little bit too colorful with the orange part in the roof, and also the tents over the main entrance. If you can balance a little bit the colors, I think it will be really excellent. For example, you have improved a lot the round building from the first release. For me it's ok with the golden windows, because now it's not so colorful as in the beginning. Also, you changed the red part in the roof so that it's not so bright, I like it.
Keep it up!

@ Sanchimaru

Tank you for your constructive comments, i am working on it :)

Have edited the Gold town, Statue residence and the Small block of flats.
Have removed the red upper and lower red areas on the gold tower, looks better indeed. Chandged the red/orange lines and tent above the entrance on the Statue residence. And made the parasole on the Small block of flats a little less bright.
In the screenshot you all so can see the remake of the "Tall Office block" (building with a Q on it) am bussy to make the construction sites. :D

That is my opinion to, and the reson i have put this company sign Q on it. i ll leave te roof empty like it is, i am a little afraid to fill every roof with airconditioners and other machinery the total image can get verry (rommelig) massy. But can add it later.
