Bryce: Buildings

Monday we will be creating some City Scapes using the Terrain Editing features we used before.  But today we will be making some individual buildings.

We are going to be using both PhotoShop and Bryce for this project.  We will create a grayscale image in PhotoShop (size 1024 x 1024 pixels) with a "bumpmap" of our building design.  Remember that the white is the highest point in the map while the black is the lowest point.  

So something like the following would resemble a pyramid:

Here are some examples of buildings used in a bryce scene:

The rounded building on the above-right image is an example of that.  Here are a few examples of "bump maps" that you can use for interesting buildings.
