original post#1 begins here
odintheking was requesting a Stars Wars mine.

Not sure what he wants yet, but here is a futuruistic mine.

Hey, I remember that :p

Red Alert 2 Tank Factory, the memories...

Nice work Pounder.

Yeah!

Here's another.

The Ore Refinery, you're spoiling us here Pounder :p

Number 2 looks the coolest, IMO.

I'm all out, I just grabbed them from a screen shot I found, I don't have the game.

I'll posted them later.

They are very big. I think they should be around the same size as the standard mine.

Otherwise they look nice.

I'm all out, but I can still mod them.

Here is a combination of the two buildings and I have added some smoke out of one of the stacks.

I think it is a matter of preference. Some may think the original mine is too small, compared to the space a fortress or baricade takes up.

You could use that as a mine too I think.

Here it is a bit smaller than the others and got rid of the civ colours.

Looks cool. Those 3 mines can be used a lot in futuristic mods.

Added some intake pipes to the side.

Thank you for doing this! I had in mind what you have in post one, but shrunk, and a whole lot of them (kind of an industrial district, think like this (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Theworks_view.jpg)) on top of a generic metallic ground, this is to make it look urbanized. Give me a day or two to install a game I have, and I can give you some metallic surfaces to build on top of, :).

I've cleaned up this one quite a bit and covers a little less real estate.

Maybe you could also tell what you have in mind for the irrigation and I could start playing around with that.

Basically the same thing as mines, but no industrial areas (they are going to be residential areas). Basically what you see in this picture (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Coruscant_and_cr90.jpg). Thanks again!

Do you want the mines to cover most of the tile.

BTW, I see a planet in the picture for irrigation, not able to see any detail. You say they are going to be residential areas. What kind of buildings and any other stuff.

Yes, I would like a few buildings visible, but at a far distance. The irrigation and mines should fill up a whole square. See, I want the irrigation and mines to be a settled region of the planet. I want the buildings to be relatively small. I may be a little vague. Let me explain:

Ok, take your irrigation for example:

Let's say we recolor it grey, to make it look metallic and futuristic. Now just c'n'p some buildings on it (like the factories you made for mines, and generic highrises for irrigation) at a small scale, :). Of course, you probably have your own way, but I just wanted to give you an idea of what I want. I feel like I'm being very vague... please ask if I need to elaborate, :).

Are you going to be using roads or rails in this game.

The reason I ask is because the roads will be going over top of the irrigation and may not look good. Generally it is a better idea to put the buildings on a roads or railroads file so they go on the top layer.

Mines go over roads so not a problem.

There was someone who did a roads file a few years ago that was level an urban sprawl. The whole map would be highrises if you built a full road system.

@Pounder,
I like both the "truncated aeroplane-hangar with smokestacks & a bit of smoke" and the "spinning-jenny with cave-digging appendix" (two of the latest gfx. But I have one complain about them.

They are a bit too big for my taste. Make them about 12.5 - 17.5 % smaller, and they'll look better in the game :yup:

Nah, planets will be relatively small, so no roads are needed, :).
