Looking good Michael. There's one thing that jumps out at me though. The
parked cars in the second image are really out of perspective with the
scene. It might work to just stretch them out horizontally a little to
avoid reshooting. The scene would actually look fine without them, unless
the client wants them of course. Your asphalt material is amazing. Is it
procedural?

Wayne's right, Michael, but boy it's tough to find a problem. Good
stuff.

Along with the other comments, why are there ANY cars on the street, they
should be in that beautiful "garage." Most office buildings aren't that
nice.

Thanks guys - did the last perspective on a whim - last night - figured I
spent time to model it might as well see it - time spent was 7 hours
modeling - 4 hours rendering, materials, composition -

OK damn it!. How could you possibly have modled this whole scene in just
7hrs??? You are a god...can I worship at your temple and learn from you???
Seriously, very good work, I joke because I am humbled that you could do
this so quickly. Unless I don't understand what Iam looking at, this would
have taken me at least a week, but I am very slow. Tell me, are all these
structures modeled, or are they also from a digital photo ( I cant tell),
and secondly, did you recycle from old models or is this all new?
My only constructive comments, for what it's worth are these; How do the
cars get in and out, this looks more like a people structure...secondly, the
shadows are a bit strong, but thats truly minor.
Thanks for sharing.

Shawn:
Everything in the scene was new - modeled from scratch - along with all
new materials - The only thing I used from a digital photo was the sky and
background - It is supposed to look like a people structure and not a
parking garage - this is to help blend into it's surrounding better - I have
been doing this for about 12 years - (started with 3ds Dos) I guess over
time you find tricks that help you be more productive and only model what
you really need in a scene - (I guess all those late nighters are starting
to pay off) - Thanks for the comments
