I edited my first ballpark, editing Silvam's wonderful creation of Chase Field. I did my best to take it back to the pre-2005 era, when it was known as the "BOB", (I grew up in AZ, some people still call it that). Bank One Ballpark. I can't have sketchup on my old computer, preventing me from fully being able to do what I wanted with the BOB...but most noticeably, I was able to place the clock and "Arizona Republic" sign in CF, where the Chase sign now sits in the modern park. Also used actual large advertisements that donned the back wall behind CF. Couldn't find usable pre-2005 images of the large pictures on the outside of the park, so I took the liberty of posting photos of six members of the 2001 championship team.

Again, Silvam did the original 3D model of the park, all credit goes to him. I just added some window dressing and switched a few things to resurrect the BOB.

This is really well done. The only thing that I might suggest is to add in the strip of dirt from the pitcher's mound to home plate similar to how Comerica Park is. That was one of the signature features of the original Bank One Ballpark that I grew up going to.
