I'm planning on modelling a building with walls wich consist out of identical square elements.

I want to try different materials on these elements, and i was wondering if it is possible to change...

Whenever I copy a polygon with a specific size, its duplicate has size 1,1,1 (even though it has the same size as the original). Is there a way to get the proper sizes on the duplicates?

Ok, i added the windows, background, and started adding dirt, but as you can see I really suck at it... how can I make some convincing dirt textures? and also how can i reflect the sky on the...

hey thanks for the replies

Do I have to uv map the building to apply the dirtmaps or can it e done more easily? (my texturing has been done with planar mapping)

I'm currently working on the...

this is a building I've been modeling this week

comments en critics about modeling, texturing and lightning are more then welcome....

What's the best way to make bump maps if you already have a texture file for your shader?

hey, thanks for the replies, they really helped

one question though, how does that mapping on a plane work?
and will the tree still cast shadows in this way?

looking good, i'm working on that one too....

does anyone know how to make the shape of the roof of the tower? Here's what I'm talking about:
