A progress update ...



... a certain place (known for it's heat) will freeze over before I attempt to work with photographic images again.

I like the look of this. Are you going to keep theses maps in gray-scale or are you going to color them?

I prefer greyscale, so these will stay greyscale.
The original images that I started with were compiled at 1 pixel = 1 foot.
Compiling them ino a multi kilometer image required steping down to greyscale and dropping the resolution.
Even so, I had to break the images into smaller pieces and then spend thirty hours of processing time stitching them together.
I would need better hardware to try this in color.

Nine million people is just too large of a city for learning to do this.
But thank you for the compliment.

Just for fun, here are a couple of the higher resolution building blocks that I made first:

One of the farm domes ...


And a piece of the warehouse district ...


For a sense of scale on all of the maps, the farm domes are about 1 kilometer in diameter.

Moving on, another WIP piece of the puzzle ...

Consider me drooling! Thanks for sharing & Rep on the way!

Another weekend, another night to let it process ... the Core District aerial ...

Cool stuff. The detail you're adding is very nice. Have some rep!
