That is my local Apple Store. Good job, guys.

Just a minor comment, the entrance face of the Apple Store actually faces west northwest (WNW) because the Manhattan street/avenue grid is oriented north northeast (NNE)/south southwest (SSW). That said, one would expect the right or SSW face of the columns of the General Motors Building, behind the store, to be a bit brighter than the WNW face.

I know, "picky, picky, picky". Well, if you were not SO perfect, I could find something really meaningful to comment about. Instead, our choice is to heap more praise on your work or be picky. No one wants to be the picky person so, I answered the calling.

Yeah, yeah, beautiful work, as usual. (Grumble, grumble...)

This is sick! I have something similar that I am working on right now but I can't seem to get the glass panes to show as good as this. Was the model built accurately or did you have to space the glass further apart to achieve that effect?

[daros]

thanks leoA4D!

JCAddy, you are not using AGS glass? This renderings has mormal glass as shown in the screeshot.
The silicon gaps between adjacent glass surfaces are modeled but i don't think they make the big difference.

you can download the model from here.

Doh! I did in fact still have AGS on the exterior glass. Thanks for hitting me upside the head.
