Amazing as always. Love the lighting.
Outstanding work! It is really coming together nicely and the lighting is fantastic!
Just found this thread, and everything on here was amazing to look at/read! I really loved the way you made the textures in the stairs, I would've never thought of doing it that way. Can't wait to see what's next!

Lighting is perfect for this scale. Really creates a nice ambience
Very impressive
Yes Katsu-san; you're on the right track Everything has to be dirty and not too clean "Japanese Style" Eager to see your next update!
You should see his other builds. Some really crazy awesome stuff here.Just found this thread, and everything on here was amazing to look at/read! I really loved the way you made the textures in the stairs, I would've never thought of doing it that way. Can't wait to see what's next!

Thank you, Michael-san.You should see his other builds. Some really crazy awesome stuff here.
I'll definitely check them out!
Love the brick effect, and the grime streaks on the concrete pillars. The concreate looks very realistic as well
That Lady Penelope's car is bringing so many memories Katsu-san Great idea that brick work
Love the ground floor and the weathering. I'm always amazed at your process.
Maybe 15 to 18 rooms. Oh, the next room of the coffee shop is still empty...Huum
I've thought about the brick pattern this and that but finally, I made a couple of stamps for this.

Thank you, George-san! 'glued to the screen'!? Watch out when you peel off! In fact, I don't want you to look closer or you gonna find many rough parts.Like a Wizard with a magic hat, he pulls out one 'trick' after another...
Katsu-san, you are the best. Thank you for this adventure. It's so cool to see this unfold...and then to be absolutely blown away by another feature that no-one ever saw coming. I'm 'glued' to the screen for more !
Don't forget to give your apartment tenants a way to enter and leave!
Thank you, Analyzer-san. Japan is the nation of stamps, not about the postal stamp but about the - Hanko. Here's an interesting story. All the Japanese people have their own imprint stamps -Hanko. I mean all of them. We stamp those Hanko on every official document or company document, anything relative documents. Just like you sign those. A few years ago, our government tried to abolish our Hanko and introduce a 'sign' just like you do. Because the government thought it's not contemporary that we still use those Hanko.Great idea and very useful!
A lot easier and quicker than masking things off and airbrushing or spray painting
Oh, I'm surprised. You do have a stamp. And thank you for the info about the president's sign machine. That was true...Fascinating. I have a signature stamp at work, not nearly as pretty as those.
Thomas Jefferson had a device called a polygraph (nowdays, a polygraph is a fancy term for a lie detector) which would let him write or sign two documents at one time:
Excellent comment from a master modeler that demonstrates significant experience. Nothing in excess, nothing in deficiency.Finished the upper facade and started to give it some weathering.

Weathering work is a dangerous game.
Just like a detailing work, it's so fun to do and you often give it too much.
I've seen many good works spoiled by that. Of course, if you make it for filming, you have to rather overdo it.
I should remind myself.
