Antonio,
Looks great,, the only thing I would do is weather the wood on the windows a little more, could be just the pictures but they look a little too fresh. Don't get me wrong the compostition looks really good at this point, just a suggestion. What is the blue thing next to the tree? It's hard to see in the photo's
Regards,
Robert

I'm sure you are planning to do this next step but just in case...
You should put signs like Bakery or Restaurant in the language of whatever country it takes place.

Hi Bus,
Your dio looks big...the buildings also look awesome. Nice work. Just one observation though, those wood attached to the building looks they were glued...I suggest you add some nail marks if they were supposed to be nailed...just a suggestion. BTW, maybe you could also add hit/bullet holes on the faces of the building to give it more character.
Overall very good....
Cheers

put more rubble in the street, if a shell hits a building the pieces fly everywhere, not just fall next to it, so put some wood, briks and dirt in the street as well...otherwise, awsome dio coming along!!

Cool! I love it.
Aside from the wood thingy that the other guys said, I'd like to suggest altering the colors of some of the red bricks. You can lighten some, darken some and leave some just in the right color. It breaks up the monotony and adds a spark of realism.

Antonio, I love the way your dio is going. I like the layout and everything. There is just one thing that bothers me about it. The brick buildings second floor windows and the boards that go across them dont seem right. To start I feel the boards should be moved to the interior side of the wall as they would have been hard to put into place on the outside. And thats what brings me to the second problem I have. With them on the outside it appears they have been fastened directly to brick which would be very hard to do. Now take this for what its worth just my two cents. Other than that its excellent and I look forward to seeing it progress Cheers Kevin

This is looking really good-can't wait to see it finished. Any figures, or other vehicles being added? Like the other comments, I think the boards would look more realistic if you fastened them on the inside of the windows. I wouldn't worry too much about adding rubble to the street, citizens usually cleared the streets of debris.
