That must take forever to render, not to mention model!

Cool ideas.

An original concept, a village on wheels, and fascinating images.

I do wonder though, are the steps not too far apart?

BTW, did you see my answer to you mail, in p.t.scene-files?

This is really fantastic as far as the incredible detail is concerned! 
It's something I strive for but have difficulty to achieve in my work. 
Very good. Also the idea; reminds me of a novel by Christopher Priest 
about a city on train wheels slowly crossing the continent of Europe: a 
very weird story!
It is perhaps true that some of the proportions are not quite what they 
should be: the apartments look fairly small to me.
Looking forward to future installments!

Render time for this version is currently around 5 minutes (running on a
Pentium 433).  It only has 19K objects.  When I push it up where things
start swapping, then the render time will go up... also if I add in
background details, that will eat up memory.  Also, the windows don't have
any glass in them... keeps the render times down as well.
