These are two fine looking buildings, Jonathan. You have incorporated some very
pleasing and believable details.
I think I am with you on the green. Personally, I think that keeping bright
colors down to a minimum makes a building look better. So I build mine out of
the earth colors, and only accent with primaries or such, as in an awning for
instance (as you have also done). Perhaps try using more gray, or even making
the whole cornice gray.
As for the other building, I am conflicted. The more I look at it, the more it
grows on me, but my initial reaction was that the brown band was too much, and
that I wanted to see the large brown arch in tan. Now I don't know; would be
interesting to see the 2 versions to compare. I still think, however, that you
should change the door color from red to either black, gray, or even fake it
with clears.
These nits, however, are tiny compare to the overall effort, which I think is
super:-)
Build on,
John
