Drawings of the same building by different artists
When there are multiple diagram entries of the same tower by different artists, how does Skyscraperpage determine which one will be the main one?
For example, the main Willis (Sears) Tower drawing that appears when you search the diagrams is by Koops65, but there are several other entries. How does the system decide which diagram to display? https://i.ibb.co/S6sSS5N/C986-BEFD-9...-CC4-E24-C.jpg |
For what i see they put as primary the latest drawing submitted (only if it have a good quality)

Isn't it Dylan's decision?
I don't know... There are times when I'm sad (Haeundae I PARK) but there's nothing I can do. Monopolizing the main diagram is not good for diversity. I think people who draw will be motivated when their paintings appear on the main page. Therefore, I respect his choice. |

I don't think someone's painting is right or bad.
I draw buildings as if I were dissecting them so, buildings tend to be drew thick. I've been trying not to do that lately so my drawing is also not good and a lot to be desired. |
In this case, you can see the date order which the drawings were submitted (image below), so Damien's drawing replaced Etesia's drawing because it is newer, and I usually do this to highlight newer drawings.
Steamboy's drawing isn't the correct height, unless I were to go in and adjust the image, since there currently is no auto-resize feature built into the database. Sometimes people post in the forum that they want a different primary drawing selected for a building and I usually change it. (If you ever do so, please post a direct link to the building for me to use). In this case I've switched back to Etesia's drawings for the two Busan IPARK towers - https://skyscraperpage.com/diagrams/?cityID=10 https://skyscraperpage.com/graphics/...%20drawing.png |
Thank you for the insight! I appreciate that you allow new artists a chance to share in the spotlight, which I know can be a difficult decision when there are several great drawings to choose from.
I love that this website keeps all the variations because I love looking at how different artists perceive the same building. I enjoy Koops65 and Steamboy for their realism. I love etesia’s and Xiaomianlong’s drawings as well for their use of artistic shading and light. As a beginner, I just don’t know how everyone is able to pump out so many amazing drawings. It currently takes me about 10 work-hours to do a single one that turns out so-so. |
Is very common to take 10 hours or more to do a building, in my case with some buildings can be some days
In your case is amazing the quality of your drawings seeing that they are the first ones, really high quality |

A bit random, but unless I'm mistaken did Steamboy sneak a diagram in last week after a multi-year hiatus?

I believe he had to go and join the army...

It has been confirmed that the Steemboy's painting is not correct height, so Dylan probably changed it himself.
Steamboy hasn't been on for five years. |
