A few more

I think Savannah has had the nicest weather it's ever seen for winter/spring season. Great for people who wanna take a stroll outside, but bad for someone who wants to take pictures of even lighting on buildings.

A lot of my buildings are modeled but I have to re-take and in some cases re-re-take some of the pictures for my textures.

Another problem I've encountered is the ability to manipulate UV's isn't present, so complex "single" faced polys can be a hastle to texture.

Here's an example:
The top face of the Library's flair, as many bends as it may have, is still considered one poly in Sketch-Up. The obvious solution is to sacrifice smaller file sizes and add a few cuts to the poly to make texturing a bit more manageable.

Halfway update.

Somewhat of a large update.

Here's an overview of my progress:

Marked all buildings on Google Earth.
Photographed 20 buildings.
Modeled 11 buildings.
Completed 6.

Optimization of the models has been going well, the final models are averaging to be around 5k.

Here are a few sample screenshots.

Here we have Crites Hall,
