14 - The Ward of Chiezbehrg [J.Edward]

[J.Edward]

You're setting the bar pretty high on those buildings, I'm starting to regret choosing district 13 because my section is going to look hideous beside this one.

I love what you have planned so far Kacey and I think it's gonna be splendid. Trust your skills and... have fun. That is most important.

He is isn't he! LOL!

You should see the convoluted weirdness I'm going through right now with CC3 trying to emulate them!

You won't be the only one breaking a sweat, Kacey

John - Thanks - I'll sort it now

And your section will be awesome Mouse. I have no doubts about that.

I actually have like hundreds of questions , but the most important is, where do you get the idea for all that nice roofs and layout (buildings connected to each other), is there like special way to learn it, or you just drew them so many already, that it is natural for you now?

Voolf, the best thing I can tell you is to look at satellite images of old cities. Oxford in England is a great example of some really interesting roofs.
Also, Strasbourg in Germany, the neighborhood of Forest Hills in NYC, Karlsruhe in Germany, and many other German cities and towns, as well as old towns in England, France and Italy.

Haha, kacey... if I had grabbed a section to do I would have filled it with rubble because I have no skills, and very little practice, with drawing buildings and architecture and city layout. John has likely been studying and drawing this stuff most of his life. Yours is going to be awesome and individual and interesting with the special details that you bring to it.
Also, I'm going to practice drawing buildings more in the future, John, because that looks awesome... and it's not even straight.

You Once you have mastered architecture, you will be a dangerous woman... or rather.. more dangerous than you already are.
