About the model
A county courthouse in a Romanesque style which was commissioned by RedRabbit. This project all in all took about 50-60 hours. Took a bit longer than I expected, especially since I'm also working on some other stuff. I kind of handicapped myself with the limited texture, ran out of space :) but I think in the end it looks alright. Just look for that special moment ingame where the sun brings out the normal map, will look awesome for your screenshots!

This can be a courthouse, a townhall, a postoffice or whatever offical building you imagine it to be. It kind of has that uniqueness and styile that makes it very versatile.

This model has a 3072x512 texture. The building has about 19.000 tris and a lod texture of 512x128 and a lod model of about 450 tris. Normal mapped, alpha, illumination and specularmapped. They all share the same texture.

About the building
The Old Minnehaha County Courthouse, located at Main Avenue and 6th Street in Sioux Falls, is the former county courthouse of Minnehaha County, South Dakota. The courthouse, which was the seat of county government from 1890 to 1962, is one of the oldest buildings in Sioux Falls. The Romanesque Revival building was built from locally quarried quartzite, a common building material in Sioux Falls at the time. The three-story building features a tall clock tower over the front entrance. The building's doorways are surrounded by Roman archways; the second- and third-story windows are also arched, while the first-story windows are rectangular. The attic windows have decorative dormers aligned with the front walls.

The courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 10, 1973

Changes
- Fixed clock.
- Illuminated clock tower.

@Darf -- This building style and textures would be incredible if used to create a full set of a Campus DLC university!

A lovely and flexible building. A court house? Maybe. City hall, yeah. Train station? Sure why not!

Looks very nice. Reminds me of the Old City Hall in Toronto.

No blueprints and I don't use blender aswell. Ofcourse blueprints are nice to have, but I mainly create the mesh just from image and google maps and guessing the dimensions. I use 3ds max, photoshop and SketchUp to model.

this is beautiful. great work. i was wondering if you worked from blueprints and built in blender. Indianapolis has a beautiful romanesque train station along with its raised shed. I want to build for my city. However, i have no clue where to get the blue prints. Keep up the hard work and take care. https://www.nps.gov/nr/travel/indianapolis/unionstation.htm
