I'm doing a project at uni for a land use planning course and we have a presentation where we show the examiners our proposed changes for a suburb of Manchester called Heald Green. Basically we are proposing to revamp a train station in Heald Green.

Now we don't see much wrong with the platform, but the station house itself is atrocious and we are proposing to change it. We are also wanting to make the carpark one whole uniform carpark. Also bare in mind this is the first stop after Manchester airport so we want it to be knockout - fancy ground uplighting, maybe a glass stationhouse or something.

I have no idea about photoshop and I was wondering if you guys could be great people and knock something up for me using these pictures:






Go nuts!
 
why dont you download that google 3d program and do it yourself?

Cant remember the name but its a piece of pee to use, you can get results quickly with it and its free!
 
Download Sketchup, draw what it is you want and present that.

If you can find someone with some photoshop skillz willing to help they might be able to stylise the original pics and blend them with the sketchup model but basically what you're asking for is how some people make a living! ;)
 
The force is not with you guys. :mad:

I'd actually be willing to pay, hmm, I dunno about a fiver, but I'd want more pictures done. :D

No seriously, I know its a pretty big ask/long shot, but I thought maybe some guys are so good at this and actively seek out practice. Looks like I overestimated. :o
 
Most people are quite happy to do a little here and there, the above is a huge amount of work. If you had for example provided a similar building to the one you want to replace the station building, that will make life a lot easier should someone want to take it on.

You really need someone to draw the designs in my opinion, as you always get with new projects like football stadiums.

This could be used as an example as the kind of thing I'm after for the platform picture:

For the front of the station Id just be looking to have the foreground made into one big carpark and then something knocked up for the station itself that might resemble the other side. It really doesn't have to be very precise at all, just a rough idea I suppose.

Maybe something like this but looking for the other way obviously:

for example.

Err, yeah, that requires engineering / architectural software, and a very long time to make. No one is going to put in all that effort, for something you should be doing anyway.

I haven't the faintest idea how to do that stuff, it just would have made my pres look slick. Nevermind.
