A little two-point practice. Didn’t do any perspective construction. just vibin’, imagining a shady street.

This sort of thing would be good for lighting practice probably. I didn’t bother.

        This also reminds me of my college town, especially with the murals and the brick(?) buildings. Really good, and in more than an architectural way. Feels like I’m walking down those streets.

    I like the rendering of the facade. Looks like it was drawn from life.

    The scale for the upper story is so cute!

      Yeah basically after I finished I was like, should’ve gone a bit taller up there.

      I’m glad you noticed the facade though, the stone trim (?) is very much taken from some buildings I like.

          No I like it that size. I imagine the upper windows are just a clearstory and the inside is huge.

          I like the stone lintels. And the belt course and cornice are neat on such a small scale. They all look kind of Italianate.

          It’s been quite a long time since I took an architectural history course, but do you happen to live in a Midwestern city?

            Yep this is very much an Italianate building as were commonly built in Midwestern downtowns, probably around the late 19th, early 20th century.
