Nope. Further west - specifically west coast.

Hm..maybe the Mount McKinley in Alaska? It's the highest mountain and near the north west coast I think.

Absolutely correct!

Your prize is... the happy thought that you got the answer.
Nah but yep, Mt. Baker is correct, and the mountain range itself is the Cascades.

Thank you google for helping me with the mountains^^

Looks nice modeled.
Off topic: The lowrez model of the B1 droid in your first picture behind the 2nd bench and near the stap) looks a li. ttle bit like a bunny if you zoom to him.

looks great.
One question is there a reason why everybody (on many stock models) makes an circle the way you did it?? I make an central point and you have this point moved to the left side.

Ah yes. I thought the same. Actually if you attached the image it should be a bit "glitched". That would happen if I did that.

Can't speak for XSI but when you're working with n-gons and auto-triangulate afterwards that's what it usually looks like.

The central vertex isn't moved, it's been removed. For flat cylinder tops, it's much more efficient to do what I did instead of having the outer vertices connect to a central vertex. Saves triangles. For the UVs, all you have to do is give the cluster a planar sub-projection.

Looks like an efficient use of polygons, you are definitely improving.

Looks great. I have a nice suggestion: What about a small forest house with interoir? A house where mostly hunters or 'holiday guys' live. Complete made of wood.
