Description
Amsterdam Victorian Rowhouses

Background:
Similar to my last set of these, I was looking for more victorian Dutch housing for my project Vogelstad . These came together super quick and look really good in game! Scaling is still a struggle for me but they don't look ridiculous compared to other Amsterdam stuff on the workshop.

Information:
This is a set of nine assets - six rowhouses, two 90° corners and one 135° corner. They all share the same texture, and use slight adjustments with the painter mod and prop detailing to create a more diverse look. The models range from very generic to fairly ornate.

These are not 100% real buildings, but they are based on and take elements from a few buildings around Weesperzijde in Amsterdam.

I have made MoveIt, and PTG dependencies because i am lazy and these will probably not line up right if you just use them as growables - sorry!

@jeremy.thunder That's admittedly tricky. The thing is that Dutch architecture isn't generally associated with royal ruling periods. Rather, we'd refer to time periods, and talk of "Late 19th" or "Early 20th Century" housing. In Amsterdam, you might refer to planning periods, like "Eerste uitleg" (first outlay) for De Jordaan, or "Ring 20-40", for instance. The problem with these particular houses is that they weren't part of co-ordinated social housing undertakings of the kind that took place later.

@iljajj what would a better descriptor for these be? This is really my own speech quirk, i use "victorian" as a shorthand for this general era of generic mass-development, for lack of a pithier term

Nice work! As an historian, I have to object (slightly) to the word "Victorian" though. Not only wat that term never used in the Netherlands, these buildings are generally c. 1890-1910, which put them only partly within Queen Victoria's reign. "Wilhelminian" might be better if you insist upon using royalty to refer to style.

These are nice. Rear windows, nice variations in front doors, use of normals and specularity for the roof. You are getting better at this.
