and instant (almost) fence, now after this I will copy the textured face and paste on to the other face on the other side of the bridge, duplicate the complete textured bridge twice more, delete the original other bridges and replace them with the textured duplicated bridges.

the picy above, had to split some faces to get the door see through but thats another story

here we are, no shaders yet just a directional light and some duplicates put in place

updates as they come, there will be a keep at the back, stone textures, and a camera on a motion trail, all coming up between uni and some movies I'm doing with some of the students, mainly sound and soundscape (my forte actually).

thanks again for your support guys

and my little friend out there, yes it is silly, didn't realize I has started it, sorry about that, lets just pretend it never happened, OK?

mmoore, by the way, the posts are just revolved curves and textured, you know the drill, but don't know if you know the .rgb file. It is a snap taken from Maya and saved as .rgb which somehow adds a transparency node in the hypergraph, so the posts are now just a picture file, not geometry, to save on poly counts, so as not to build up too much history or whatever it is (I'm still a beginner) so the computer can deal with it quicker.

if anyone can elaberate on this it would be great.
