Just something you should be aware of: the texture of the arches repeats
itself. You should add a bit of randomness.

I have uploaded in p.t.s-f an updated version of ndi_buildings.inc which
corrects this. In addition, it makes the wall texture consistent over the
whole building. Formerly, the texture was scaled down along with the smaller
arches, which it should not of course.

Hey thanks for doing this ... was on my to do list so this will
certainly be helpful. Perhaps later on this evening I can have something
for everyone to look at ... I'm almost settled on the tree/shrub
placement, and I've got Rob's cloud worked in ... I'll also pick up your
changes/additions.
I think we are getting close but seem to be neglecting the left side of
the scene. I'm wondering if a character close to the camera position
walking towards the courtyard is all it needs to add some balance to
that side of the scene ... Thomas you've done some terrific character
work in the past so what do you think about the idea ... and maybe
making a contribution to the scene?

I happen to have it on good authority that someone recently got a Poser
upgrade ... LOL no hints there ;-)

Hint taken.
I'll see what I can do.

I've not had much time to POV the last several days but here's an ornate stone
bench I came up with today that can be placed here and there... the seat
ornaments and ornate front bench "legs" are bevelled text objects using the
wingdings2 font.

Very nice Rob ... Right away I see a couple places for it ... I know for
sure some or most detail will be lost pushing it out by the trees in
front of the staircase ... but I also see a place perhaps 90 degrees
from the shrubs inside at each (or some) of the big arch pillars. Yes
indeed ... very nice!
In this go round I was able to get the shrub tree placement done. I also
got Thomas' changes in and found one more place so I added the staircase
to the 1st level and textured it as one unit ... big difference with the
over-all appearance. I did some minor scaling with the flower pot and
under-dish ... and lastly some minor cosmetic changes in the main scene
file and in the buildings file.
I'll post those changes shortly
Jim

I think that a small lizard in the middle foreground would make things
interesting. I shall dig into my animal zoo. Maybe another Poser figure in
the shadows... I shall have a try at this; you will be able to choose
between me and Stephen ;-)
