The current City Hall building is a near-50-year-old structure that has served the city well but, in its current state, is functionally obsolete. Built in 1969, the current City Hall requires major renovations that are complicated by the presence of friable asbestos and the way the electrical and mechanical systems were installed.
On October 3, 2017, Virginia Beach city council unanimously approved a resolution to proceed with the design of a new city hall building. The new three-story structure adjacent to the current city hall, between Buildings 1 and 2, is under construction and progressing well.

Played again in Zbrush last night a little bit without direct planings, created a curious form and my fantasy got in caprioles. Sometimes i wonder about myself like my synapses are working ;)
You see at the top image the model build in Zbrush, UVmapped and imported in Poser to check the map.
The bottom image is a basic mesh imported in Vue6 to check at first if it looks really as i imagine.
My imagination is a house-form belonging to my "Strange Alien Series" and well for nomads living at a Desert's-Planet.
(sorry if my english isn't well)
All together 5 houseforms like this are in progress. Maybe they will be available as a set when they are ready.

All our progress is an unfolding, like a vegetable bud. You have first an instinct, then an opinion, then a knowledge as the plant has root, bud, and fruit. Trust the instinct to the end, though you can render no reason.

"You progress not through what has been done, but reaching towards what has yet to be done." - Kahlil Gibran
All painted, Tamiya/Airfix acrylics, and added cockpit detailing using Eduard Photo Etch. Varnished and given a weak wash of floor polish mixed with a little black and brown added. Still getting the hang of adding washes and this didn't go how I expected. It's more subtle than I was hoping, but will do.
I've rubbed the paint off a few highpoints getting everything buttoned up in the cockpit, so a little touching up needed before the fuselage gets closed up.
The two biggest rooms of the Kelder (Herengracht 88) are nearing completion. Here is a shot of the main room (the "Studio") as seen on 29 December 2006.

I stopped on the overpass over 295 in Portland yesterday. The setting sun gleamed off Back Bay as cars zoomed under me.
What was Portland like before all this was here? A giant peninsula jutting into Casco Bay. Hills on both the East and West ends. A big circular back bay separating the peninusla from the rolling fields that gently spread away from the coast. The Mouth of the Fore River to the south. The Presumpscot to the North.
Portland is a beautiful city. Mainers are lucky that their largest city is so scenic. It doesn't stop me from wishing I could have seen it before it was. We can't go back.
There was an article in the paper yesterday about post-recession Gorham, the then little-ish town I called home growing up. Development is starting to pick up again. Mosher corner is the site of Mosher farm, their little corn stand and Beal's Ice Cream, a local favorite after Little League games, win or lose. The area is surrounded by open fields, tall grass, corn. Now, it's all being harvested away for money.
Although the corner is the intersection of two major routes, there was never even a stop light. There is now. The area is being developed... "Vista Park Condominiums, which is approved for a drive-up business such as a bank or restaurant."
"I am cautiously optimistic," Duchaine said."
"We are pleased," said Tom Ellsworth, director of the Gorham Economic Development Corp.
Elsewhere in town, Barrows Green House, a family owned Greenhouse next door to my old elementary school is closing. The family is retiring—selling the land.
"Duchaine is buying 14 acres, now home to Barrows Greenhouses at 312 Main St., and plans to build 26 single-family houses and five duplexes."
Progress?
I know our world needs to grow but the world can't. Change is inevitable. I just wish more thought went into it.
