gutterclub: The problem with MR rendering is that the lighting is notably different from the scanline, so any BAT rendered that way sticks out too much, specially if it is W2W or something that usually goes around a W2W setting, i.e. most european old buildings 

kelis: you are right! it is the Westerkerk. I have also considered making the Nicholas Church, but it is hard to find pics of all angles because of it location.

Here's a little advance:

Those textures are downright sexy.

I understand your reasons my friend, it was more out of the interest in seeing what a MR version would look like..

new Amsterdam building is looking superb!

Indeed, Chris' BAT4MAX seems to be more appropriate to w2w buildings and I would say old building (and in this sense european churches, palaces...) typically the architecture you like to BAT.

However I would say, that for glass buildings, it's totally different moreover for skyscrapers. Simfox's BAT4MAX seems better.

What is funny is that BSC members prefer Chris' tool and simtrop members Simfox's one.

Anyway, this project is coming awesome

WoooooooooW!!!! I love the model and the textures are mind exploding. :O

Great job Carlos, looks so good !! Okay, I know, the Nicholas Church have a rare location, a bit strange for a cathedral or a Church with those dimensions, but in the real life this church looks so good in that location with all those buildings close of it... I have a lot of pics, different angles, different days, different distances, etc, So if you need I can send you all of them okay ?

What do you think about the Koninklijk Paleis ( Royal Palace ) or Oude Kerk ( Old Church ) ? I think you can do a great job with these models, specially with the royal palace 

Well, once again, Thanks for this job Carlos, as always it is amazing !!

[DebussyMan]

The pics from the Nicolaaskerk would be very useful, please send them 

About the Koninklijk Paleis: I also have considered making it (I even have some great architectural drawings); my main concern is that I have no idea about how the inner courtyards look (it is pixellated in bing maps), if I had a decent picture of them I might be able to BAT it. On the other hand, I really dread the Oude Kerk, it is so "organic" in its architectural evolution that making it would be a real challenge  . However, it is one of my favourite sacral buildings; it and the Aachen cathedral are two of the buildings I'd love to make but have not the guts to try.

The choice of texture is just fabulous.

Hi Carlos 

You've seen the pictures ? I hope you are working on the Nicolaaskerk 



I leave you a picture with your great BAT of the Westerkerk, I hope you like it.

[DebussyMan]

Yep, I've seen them and saved the ones most useful. Haven't started Nikolaaskerk yet, but after some analysis I don't think it will take too long to make, perhaps I'll get to that next weekend.

BTW, great pic! I love seeing the Wersterkerk in the perfect setting.
