Very good feeling, overall.
Too bad about the sky being too short.

Thanks Dwight!...well lets just say the short sky is an artsy fartsy thingy:)

I respect that.
Except that an idea that old tends to move away from the artsy pole and more to the other one.

--- That was too harsh.

The reason i reacted it that in the 70's when we didn't have the digital stuff, a fellow would make his perspective stick out of a background photo.

The main thing i reacted to was the back panel of the second image - where it seems to float, unsupported. I think the leaping-out-of-the-image feeling you attempt fails here - the panel just wobbles there.

Anything that confuses the viewer is a bad thing......

Nice renders, and an interesting design also!

I love the angled glazing on the facades. I assume this was drawn on plan and then rotated into position when finished? I wonder if the new curtainwall tool in AC 12 would make this easier now?

Anyway, I think it looks great, thanks for sharing!

Thanks;)

As it was just for modelling, the walls were drawn as they normally would have been. But the holes in are made by excluding the pattern of the windows and then adding an extra wall, very thin of course, with a glass material. These patterns/window holes are drawn in plan view as volumes, then rotated and saved as an object, and when placed excluded from the walls.

I think this whole facade could have been done using the Curtain Wall Tool because
1. The Curtain Wall can be freely rotated in 3D to any position you wish
2. The boundary of the polygon can be formed into any shape you wish, you can even place holes in it like a slab polygon or any other polygonal stuff in AC (except for Polygonal Walls).
3. There are 3 main directions for Frames: the angle between two of them can be specified (e.g. one is horizontal, the other is sloped), then the Frame of the 3rd main direction can be placed or added to the Curtain Wall as additional Frames, then copy-dragged/multiplied.

Nice renders Martin! The design is fabulous, kind of reminds me of the CCTV building in China.

Kudos.

Good luck with the competition!

(been using AC 11 for quite a while now - IT ROCKS) I'm sure 12 does too!
