I've been happily plucking along on my new house, which is inspired by a lovely building designed by an architect named Elmer Fisher. It was built in the late 1800's and I adore it. It's a commercial building, but I thought it could be converted into a townhouse sort of structure. The architectural style is "Richardsonian Romanesque."
I thought I had it just the way I wanted it last night and I started applying some test textures when I realized that the columns protrude much too far. The rounded parts of the building aren't supposed to look like turrets, they're just a more pillar-like appendage that gives the building more architectural interest.
Bah.
And so now I'm thinking about starting all over from scratch.
I suppose that's not a bad thing because it's all more building practice, but I did want to have a structure to set down in New Babbage as quickly as possible.
Back to the drawing board! Again...
