A simple cut-and-paste job.. but looks a million times better than your previous.. attempts..
Just look at it. Look at the detail. Look at the design and the style. Your previous work looked nothing like this.
Granted, you didn't make this from scratch, everything here is pre-made, you just put it together.
Right, problems with this cut-and-paste building.
For a cut-and-paste job.. it sucks. Everything has just be placed down, with no attempt made to help the edges of each of the pieces fit in with its surroundings.
Its just pieces put together, no work has actually be done on them, and generally for cut-and-paste jobs to work, you need to do a lot more than just cut-and-paste..
The footprint is horribly shaped. In RA2, buildings can only have square or rectangular shaped bases, so its pointless having huge sections sticking out, its just a waste of space.
Its too empty. For such a large building, there is next to nothing there. Each thing placed there is just a single object by itself put there. There is no general link with the buildings to each other.
Overall, its better than your previous work.. but its terrible for what it is. Little effort, and little thought put behind it.
Keep practising.
And please.. unless your shps greatly improve in quality.. don't post every-single-damn-thing you make.. its just filling up the forums with rubbish. _________________ If there is a problem on the forums, PM me. QUICK_EDIT

You know you can edit and attach more files to your first post.
Hmm... So the silo door is the service depot pad?
It is a ok start(I guess), but you may want to make the silo door look sunk in and split it.
Also, you may want to move the buildings closer together and shrink the huge base.
I think the Repair Depot crane needs to go.
Also, why do civilians need missiles? They are non-combatants usually, and the prescence of civilian controlled missiles does not make sense on the battlefield, unless these are tech buildings that can be captured and used like the Missile Silos in Advance Wars. _________________ YR modder/artist, DOOM mapper, aka evanb90

The single-pixel lines of the "opening" for the missile silo is terrible.. and the "1337" being added, if anything, makes it less l337..
You really need to improve your actual drawing skills. You need to do far more than just simple lines and stuff, that is where you fail.. terribly.. _________________ If there is a problem on the forums, PM me. QUICK_EDIT

and my rank is going up so much in ohhh 1 week Ohh Well I LIKE IT!!
You mean like your postcount rank? because I cant think of another thing that you should be ranked for.
If yes I got some bad news for you, almost every topic you make ends up beeing deleted or moved to the crap forum.
At this moment you got 5 of your topics in the crap forum, lets make it 6 because im sure that this one will end up in there too.
But my point is that topics in the crap forum will be deleted and thus you lose your postcount and you rank.
Isn't that a bummer _________________
okay look guys,i think i know why the silo textures on the silo openeing looks scratchy.
he may had the work done in jpg,bmp or such when pasting(all ms:paint does),so when you save it as a GIF file,the textures become...what he has now.
Wrong! He drew those in MS Paint or SHP Builder with the simple LINE TOOL. Creating very sharp lines. You can even tell they are not centered in the circle. _________________

Well I gotta be honest and I don't have the feeling people really support me in this opninion, but he becomes better and is improving A LOT tbh. I meen look at this and his "paint-work". It's like promoted 10928045310 times .
Really reborn23, you actually started to become an appreciated member of the community. First I had serious doubts, but I'm a nice guy so why shouldn't I give you the chance to prove yourself . Nice job.
p.s. Anyone who doesnt see he is trying to improve should think again.. really he might get good at some point.

Why should he bother to improve. Many notable members of the community, with skill and talent have been bashing this guy at every turn.
He might seem immature(seems to be the case), but kicking n00bs and newbies out of the community is not the way to deal with the problem- it would be good to atleast give them a chance to adapt and learn the rules.
A month to adapt would be the most I would give. From what I see, it was alot alot shorter for him. _________________ YR modder/artist, DOOM mapper, aka evanb90

Well, the latest work missile silo you have done is actualy pretty good, Reborn, but I think the second, mirrored radar disc is misplaced.

I still think age 11 is a bit too early... _________________
I see this isn't one of those forums that have the "Must be 13 or older" rule. Oh well, now that I know he's just a kid and not an idiot I suppose I can be a little more understanding.
So where'd you hear that news about CnC Reborn having a release soon? I visit it's sites daily and have read nothing of the sort... QUICK_EDIT
Says nothing.. I was modding TS when I was 10... Some people were born to make art. Doesn't care how old they are. I bet I could outdraw any 18-year old at the age of 9... And I'm not joking. _________________ Criticizing n00bs is like booing at the special olympics. QUICK_EDIT
i cant draw for shite, if it wasint for gmax i would be a waste of a modder so i think you should get gmax _________________ Global Genocide Website QUICK_EDIT

I feel sorry for him, give the guy a break. geeky losers, he wants constructive critism in a constructive manner, not an arrogant and patronising way. QUICK_EDIT
