I know it is not a t34, but it started that way, and I am lazy

I feel kinda weird flapping my lip like this, but these folks asked�

Andyt- too detailed? You can never have too much detail, as long as it is supported by everything else. It won�t fix lack of foundation, actually it will call attention to it. Um, IMHO

StylesDavis, I mean that a city is complex, with so many different surfaces and local values (dark buildings, light buildings, shiny buildings, dark shiny building, light shiny buildings, concrete, etc.) that it can get really confusing. In diffuse light, think about horizontal surfaces high up getting the most light, and vertical surfaces getting less. Horizontal surfaces at the ground get somewhere in between. Think of it like this:

To figure out what value a plane should be, imagine yourself glued to the plane and seeing all the things that it sees. Is it bright there? In shadow? What is making it the value that it is? Keep in mind that in diffuse light the sky is a big hemisphere of light.

Thanks brokencow, keep at it. BTW, I lived in sorrysota for a bit.

Helltaxi, the BG is a few planes in 3-d with a tex map that I painted a long time ago.

Keating, when you work from photos, don�t make it too easy. Look at it and try to understand why each value is the way it is. That way you will learn to abstract it and use it later in different situations. Copying shapes without understanding them is barely above watching TV. If you think you understand what is going on in a photo well, test it by changing something. Then you will see if something is slipping by in your understanding.

HPX, you always do it RIGHT

thanks for your efforts to explain my question, spooge! i think now i understood what you meant.

one more question regarding to what you said: should i just look in the direction of the surface-normal when imagining beeing glued to the plane, or should i "be able to look around" from its point of view? i am asking this probably funny question, because this method really sounds uncomfortable to me, but lookin at your pictures you cannot be wrong with it...
