Strange you should say that Fallen, I was just toying with the idea of modelling them individually.... maybe

Actually, joking aside, you may well be able to create them using the clone tool, just as long as you know the measurements of each tile and can get a decent enough crossover, then it might look pretty good with fairly minimal effort - the only problems will come when you hit corners.

Yep, looking very nice - I know it would probably drive up poly count to stupid proportions but it would be nice to see some proper grass

Never fear! The groundplane is just a placeholder as I haven't modelled the landscape (or the interior) yet, it's next on the list to do, but I couldn't be bothered last night - hence the texturing...

The textures are repeating to much. try to give them some more variation.

Try some of the dirt maps on it too. May make it look a bit more realistic.

Even just random it up a bit more! There's lines of darker bricks going round the building, maybe look better if they were a bit more scattered.
I thought though that it looked good before the texture, kind of reminded me of Whitehouse type walls! You went a bit more old looking materials than I thought the building looked by it's shape. Still no bad though.
Maybe the pillars look a bit out of place with they textures too.

Had a complete nightmare and had to remodel the entire building exterior because of various school boy errors so I'm sick fed up of it, instead I've been working on the interior. Textures still need to have detail put in them. Its based on a tutorial for mansion halls thats floating aobut on the web as I'm sure most of you recognise although I have modded it a fair bit...

Yeah, the floor is pretty much a place holder til I work out what i want to do, the tute has parquet flooring down, I'm not sure how heavily penalised I'd be if I used that... As far as dirt maps etc go, thats the detail I'm talking about, still trying to plan it all out, just thought I'd better post something so everyone knows im still alive!
