Which one? I count three in the foreground, one in the back, and my little skyline 'o' polys.

Ah. Nothing special, that, actually. Mostly moderately creative use of cubes- there's nothing else in there.

Ah, well. Pretty much all of the others are a textured cube, so I thought it was worth a mention.

Levythan: Actually, most of that's a single sheet of disp map. The one time I've gotten the ****er working so far.

And if anyone has any ideas for more interesting-looking buildings, I'm trying to make the back a bit less samey, since in the anim this was made for that's what's gonna be looked at most.

I am physically speechless. :blah: :D

Not a bad job, Stryke. You're right about the post-production though, it's saved me many a time. Like here:

The original pic was meant to be just the underlying valley with some a ship chase, but I found that it looked too much like dung. :ick
