Starting to look like a villa....

With a lot more windows placed throughout the building, and a white, grained texture applied, my building is starting to look more and more like a villa.

Style of building

Before I began building in UDK I needed reference pictures to go by. When doing an image search "1980s villa" I wasn't surprised when I came across a lot of pictures like this one....












Though, I was able to find this. A villa built in the early 80s. I liked the cleanliness of it, as well as the simplicity.
Though this was a great style, I wanted to produce something a bit more modern and much larger, due to the wealth of the owner. My building is inspired by the following pictures...

























 So far, my building has turned out exactly as planned.

Villa (brushes) almost at completion

With 148 brushes and counting, my villa is coming along nicely in UDK.





Interior is much too dark, more windows to be built

First UDK update

After deciding that it was a villa/mansion I wanted to build in UDK, I drew the layout on Monday and began building on the Friday. Here is the progress so far:



A big landscape and suburban area is to follow after the completion of the villa.
