Porky,

I think you're very talented. I also think that you only put a small percent of your talent into your work and you could do allot more. I suppose it's really a question if you have the desire to.

I would like to say that your work remind me of another builder that spent some time on my first Workshop thread but doesn't come around anymore. I think he just stopped playing the game but I'm not sure.

Your architecture is great and you have a flair for innovation. You also did a good job structuring rooms inside. That was one fine point of having a video instead of photos. Problem I have with videos is that I am somewhat absent-minded and forget sometimes of what I saw. They also don't give you much time to study things better.

I'll speak in general basically. The aspects of building you could use work on would be landscaping and interior design. I'd would really love to see a house that you took your time with and practice with CAS. Also learn to use decorative items much more. Plants, wall decor, statues; etc. Use these things in every room.

Also do some practicing with accent walls. If you have a flair for moderns, then great accent walls can be an asset to have. I will sometimes spend 30 minutes just trying to find a decent accent wall for a room in a new house.

Take each room of your house and make it your only focus. Keep working on that room until you are really happy with the results. Don't worry about time; You're looking for quality; not quantity.

Also, if you'll work it in steps with the help of this thread, you'll end up doing some really great houses that will even astonish yourself. Do this by sharing a few photos at a time while you work.

The last thing to express to you is your covershot. I know you would like to be successful as far as the Exchange and see allot of downloads. The best way to do that is to learn how to change your covershots. Once you learn how to do that and also use some great shots, you'll see that many others will also like your work.

There is information on page one of this thread. Look at the second post on the page.

I hope to see much more from you in the future.
