Work for my honours project at university.

If anyone can have a quick look over it and tell me what you think, that'll be so incredibly helpful ^^

Thanks for looking, hope you like it

Love it. Don't think it is a problem if windows are parented to the mesh instead of extruded if it keeps the polycount low...you could try to boolean them in. Also, don't you think that it is a bit too bulgy for a stalactite? It's beautiful as it is though.

I know what you mean about the bulgy-ness. The problem I had was that it's a house, so it needed to be wide enough to compansate for rooms and such. I'm tweaking the design, to make them a lot longer under the house part. Hopefully that'll make it look better.

Thank you for commenting ^^

also, it's best to make bridges and wood columns nice and chunky or they disappear in game.Would like to see doorway properly extruded from the main body of the object rather than embedded.

Nice concept but why are windows 'stuck' on the surface instead of extruded from the mesh?

I tried extruding the windows, but the poly count went through the roof, and I was having difficulty getting the windows to look uniform.

That's quite a cool idea. I've never thought of a location like that for a house. Makes me wonder though who would live there and how they'd get to it

Thanks ^^ I've got a back story and characters to explain the world, just haven't got them to a stage that I can put them on dA.
