I sought input on this earlier and got none. I've since added a 5 story vendor area to it, as well as a game room.

This is my first "big" build and I'm seeking input on its looks, keeping in mind it's a cyberpunk club/mall kinda thing.

The entire complex covers about 90% of my 6500m plot. Looking back I think I would have switched the entire building around so that the mall and club entrance are opposite where there are, because people fly from telehubs facing the club entrance; I think now having them fly toward the mall entrance would have been better.

Comments anyone?

It looks fantastic Aaron, I really like that you put the hanging wires detail in.

I'd like to see some more things inside apart from "for rent" cubes though

Other than that, very nice job, great use of textures and interesting shape for the build.

Looks very good!

As a suggestion. Maybe use some local light sources (small ones), or "lighted" textures to add a bit more athmosphere.

"I'd like to see some more things inside apart from 'for rent' cubes though".

So would I!

"Maybe use some local light sources (small ones), or 'lighted' textures to add a bit more athmosphere."

Something like this or this ?

I made those in a few minutes and you're right, it adds so much! Thanks for the idea!

the build looks great! and i agree, your use of textures is superb.

the lighting you added definitely adds a whole heaping of atmosphere.

too bad it looks like the Tartarus project is falling apart, i would have liked to suggest you to join. maybe if it gets started up again elsewhere.. do yourself a favor, get in touch with Ryen Jade. trust me.

i'm looking forward to checking it out in-world.. excellent work!
