I tried to sell them on creating a few neighborhood pictures, showing them some perspectives and talking about putting in street lights, better grass and more vegetation, some people etc... But, by the time I rendered and created all that they asked for, the projet was approved for the next-go around, and they didn't need any more imagaes.

I still have the models, I suppose I could do it on my own... Lot of my 'on my own' work ends to relate to keeping a step haead with skills and experiments of what I'll be needing at work.

Here's a closeup quick test render. Notice no shadows from trees or much of anything else. In Max, I had to render with shadows turned off.  Something was wrong with the way I textured the buildings in this render. I was expreimenting with ambient and diffusion inside the house... didn't look right, and I never got to play with it more.
