Mantat.....Hey man, No I am not going to be adding stained glass to the building. I guess you could always just make a stained glass texture and use that same texture as abump map, that could work, I don't really know, I have never done stained glass in 3d before...sorry... user added image

Hey Vlad...thanks for comment.. user added image

I am just rendering with FG, no maps at all. user added image

here are a few small updates to show you...I added a bit more detail and also added a wire.. user added image

This is just too hot to handle! user added image

Amazing - so simple, yet SOOO cool! Can't wait to see this, and the rest of the city, completed... user added image

Btw, was I the only one who considered modeling the Rohan city (can't remember the name) when I saw the movie?
