It has a helix ramp, which I can't wait to model...

More to come.

How far is the camera going to be from the structure? If it's going to be a good distance away, I would exagerate the ribs in the concrete that you've modeled there so that they will be seen.

That's a good suggestion. I may model them different than they actually are to get better shadows/depth. Thanks.

Are you going to fill this with cars / lights etc? Should make for a cool rendering on the interior.

I've always wanted to do a parking garage interior render. I've seen some cool ones around.

Looking good on the modeling.

Get this; I'm modeling this whole garage just to show a large grid of solar panels on the roof... They want to see what they will look like from eye level and from bird's eye. It's a good thing I like to model!

I'm going to embellish with as much detail as possible in the time I have.

Cars, trees, people, parkings stripes, lights.... We'll see.

Thanks, JC

Here's the helix ramp. I had to model it about 3 or 4 times before I got it right... :x

Nice! Yeah I bet the helix ramp was trick! But it looks as though you pulled it off quiet nicely. Gadzooks
