In this video, I'll showcase how to build 5 different styles of bridges, with some varieties in a collaboration with Fred Harris.
1) Stone Arch Bridge - if you want something simple but effective this is a great build. Lots of tips on how to add detail and realism including lamp designs, gradients and scour aprons.
2) Cable-Stayed Bridge - the perfect build for a modern style. There are lots of varieties which I'll show as well!
3) Truss Bridge - famous for being the go-to choice for rail bridges - But how do you stop it looking pants?
Well, a combination of the perfect shape, depth and texture for your build which I'll show. Also many tips on building railway tracks.
4) How to build on a diagonal - featuring our Mega Survival Bridge build. It's quite a simple trick that'll automatically add shape and variety to any city.
5) The MEGA build - Suspension Bridge - lots of tips on how to add as much detail and realism as possible, inspired by the Golden Gate Bridge.
Ever wondered how to get the hanging cables realistic?
