Hi! I've noticed that a lot of users are making their BATs inspired from real buildings in their hometowns. I think I'd love to see a bit of my hometown, Manila here and in SC4, so here I am trying to make models of architectural landmarks in my beloved city. This thread will also be my personal journey to BATting. If there's some things you'd like to suggest to me, or tips that you'll share, please feel free to comment.
I'm a noob at using gmax. I mean, I can't understand the program. I just find it hard to understand. I'm still on the process of learning the program. As of the moment, i'm using Google Sketchup Pro in making my models.
The first of the buildings i'm planning to work on is the main building of my high school alma mater, The University of Santo Tomas. I'm planning to make a modular university set with this, and this will be a start.



I think it would be a challenge, since i'd need to replicate the intricate columns and statues atop the building's roof. I'll get you guys updated with my progress. But for now, there's a lot of things i'd need to work on.
