Baptist Medical Center 2

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

A small update on the Baptist Medical Center.

I’m constantly evaluating how much detail to add and whether said detail needs to be modeled or textured.  Probably the best I can come up with is to have LOD versions of each model. Then, when everything is done I can make downtown Jacksonville into a WiC map. That would be some fun!

To change things up for myself I’m looking at working more on the Northbank soon. It starts to become a bit tedious when you work on the same model for days and days. I have a good portion of what I need for reference photos on the Northbank. I still need to get more references toward the Alltel Stadium.

As always, I hope you’ve enjoyed and more to come.

Finally getting the initial plans ready for importing into Lightwave, the Baptist Medical Center enters Jacksonville 3D. This is the last area of major buildings to prep for the Southbank. I purposely saved this for “last” because it wasn’t something I really looked forward to, but of course, only facing it makes it go away. One good thing about saving it for later has been I’ve more or less perfected my production flow with the tools I have.

One thing I have looked forward to, even before beginning this project, was creating the bridge that run above I-95. More to come!
