I'm not sure how I can improve my Bridge texture

[ChrisBence]

Here is the Morrison Bridge model I uploaded:

http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=9712ef759c15510782175282be73cda0

The model was rejected for having incomplete texture. Any idea what I
can change to improve it to be accepted?

Hi ChrisBence,

Nice model.

I saw some z-fighting on the underside of the top of the towers and
the bottom of the walkway next to the shack.

The end of the bridge that goes into the terrain has some texture
missing.

GE wants all surfaces photo textured, the "dim gray", "Color_ A19" and
"Material 5" aren't photos.

I hope this helps.

Hello ChrisBence

A very good place to find images of Bridges from which you can create
your own textures is at "Structurae" website (which is all about
Bridges).
Here is a link to their site where I have already done a quick search
for your bridge (I didn't check any of the search results to see if
they were for your bridge).
http://en.structurae.de/search/index.cfm?domains=en.structurae.de&client=pub-3957214050153370&forid=1&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&flav=0000&sig=4IU-tPAQTmedYc9q&cof=GALT%3A%23FF6600%3BGL%3A1%3BDIV%3A%23003366%3BVLC%3A000000%3BAH%3Acenter%3BBGC%3AFFFFFF%3BLBGC%3AFFFFFF%3BALC%3A660000%3BLC%3A660000%3BT%3A003300%3BGFNT%3A0066FF%3BGIMP%3A0066FF%3BFORID%3A11&hl=en&q=Hawthorne+Bridge&sa=Google+Search&sitesearch=en.structurae.de

I always do a Web Search for Specific Bridges to find textures/images
and specifications.
Note that at Structurae, many of the images have footnotes that
specifically indicate that the images may be used legally providing
you are not using them for profit etc (read the disclaimer / copyright
info with each image).

Even if there aren't any great images that will help with the
modeling, there are often enough to create textures (i.e. color
textures).

Best of luck to you.

BTW - Excellent Looking Model/Bridge

Good job.

1) There are several "reversed" faces of the volumes (choose View-
>Face Style->Momohrome search dark grey)
2) There is no texture on the bottom surface of the spans
