Okay, another station shot. Yes I know I work on to many projects at once but ohwell :).

I started a W.I.P Flanking Tower, these are also a pain to make for a very weird reason, because they are actually very weird.

I was to lazy to crop the image so... Sorry about the size.

Well that's actually 3 monitors, working in 3D with dual or triple monitor is especially great and so much quicker and easier. I really don't think I can go back to a single monitor anymore.

For kicks a picture of my setup.

I've had a sudden burst of inspiration causing me to want to work fast :>.
 
Off-topic: I'm guessing Intel has some type of "cool and quiet" because your FSB is only half speed. Why isn't that overclocked? All Sandy Bridge CPU's should be no less than 4.2ghz :P

On-topic: Since you are modeling midgar. What happens when areas of the plate are modeled? Are you going to add them to your model? Or just say "to heck with it!" Since you only really need the midgar plate in two or three scenes.

Well i7 dosen't have an FSB most are unlocked and unbuffered so you can do as you want. And I have a thing against overclocking never liked it :P.

Well I will be making the entire Midgar whether I like it or not, I will also want it for personal use maybe in a portfolio or something but at the moment I have no real lead on that yet sorry. I will let you know asap though!
 
Totally jealous of your three monitors. You got some good music too. lol
 
Well here it is, the Mako Reactor.

I will try to get in contact with Millenia or someone to texture it for me.

Any offers?

Is it just me, or does Midgar seem like a bad idea for a city? Like why on earth would you make a city in the air that's in 8 "slices" and all 8 of them are held up by 1 pillar each?  That's like ASKING for something bad to happen.

Well, that was corrected in the AC version I beleive, it sits on 1 pillar support but also has several other pillars with scafolding all the way to the top providing extra support.

Thought AC happened mainly in some other town just outside Midgar?

It is, but... There was nothing stopping them from doing a few ajustments here, and there.
 
Fantastic job on Midgar so far. Maybe team of with SpooX and get some of his models? It might save you some time.

Actually Jessie mentions other smaller pillars in addition to the main one on the train after the bombing mission. Unless this was something added in the TA release.
 
I meant 1 pillar each, as in the pillars like the one that's blown up (which causes the loss of sector 7? or 8? cant remember).  Seems kinda stupid to have only that pillar supporting the plates....

Well theres actually several of those pillars under one plate, however only one pillar has the pillar release module( the time bomb )

I'm working on the actual Head Quaters now, it's a tricky thing to build so i've left this piece as a WIP.
