Working on the Buildings

I used the edge loop tool to insert edges to block out the shape of the vents on the front of the building. I extracted the faces where the vents would go, deleted one of the extracted faces and kept the other to make the vents. I used the insert edge look to add edges to make the frame of the vents and deleted the middle face.

I created a cube and flattened it out into the shape of a vent slat and then with it inside the frame I used the duplicate special and told it to make 10 copies I then combined the slat pieces with the frame and made a duplicate of them  to make the other vent.

I used the edge loop tool to block out the doorway and the door frame and then extracted the frame forward. To make the frame thicker I selected the back faces of the frame and extruded them back. I created a plane and moved it into the frame to make the sliding door on the building.

I created a cube and flattened it out for the roof and then rotated it to fit the slant of the roof. I created another cube for the supports of the roof and then duplicated it.

I repeated the same process that I used on the vents for the first building to create the vent for the tall back building.

I duplicated the vent of the first building. sized it down and moved it to the left most building. Using the insert loop tool I again blocked out the shape of the door and its frame. I extruded the frame outward and the face of the door backwards.

When trying to create the triangle roofs of the buildings I discovered some issues with buildings I made. I ended up creating cubes, scaled them to the size of the original buildings and then deleted the original buildings. I had to do this to my two buildings on the left. On the largest building I only had to use the insert edge tool around where the two vents were so that I could cut out the faces behind the vents. On the far left building I left the vent where it was but had to remake the door.

To make the roofs I inserted an edge loop in the middle of the buildings and then selected the edge on top of the buildings and moved it until I was happy with the degrees that the roofs slanted.

I duplicated the vents from the main building once again, this time scaling it down and outward. I created the door in the same way I did for the door on the other building.  I then duplicated the scaled down vent. I used the insert edge tool to cut around the vent, deleted the face created and then tilted the vent.

To make the roofs I made a cube and sized it to one half of the main building and adjusted the left and right vertical angles so they were straight. I then duplicated the roof and rotated it around to make the other side and then lined it up with the other half of the roof. I think combined the two sides and duplicated them and moved it to the taller building I resized it again and adjusted the angle of the roof so that it fit the top of the building.
