New Version of Provo City Center in the Works

I have gone to create lengths to overhaul this model. I still need to redo the trees, finish some things with the concrete, and texture the Windows properly. I also am waiting to see exactly what the fountain will look like, and I am waiting for details on the Pavilion. Then there are some of the textures to touch up, and … well, This one is still as far from finished as the real life version is. At least.

The rest of Downtown was not modeled by me, but came from the Sketchup Warehouse. I did do some modifications. First I stripped out all the textures and created the special off white texture they use in these images. Then I optimized the models for quicker rendering. Just downtown was a file size of 158 mb, and I optimized all of downtown to a single model of 20 mb. No small feat.
