Continuing our tour of the International League (as well as our apparent tour of BB&T Ballparks)...

Truist Field, home of the Charlotte Knights

There wasn't anything on the 3D Warehouse for this, so it's completely done from scratch. Once again, I found myself getting caught up in a lot of the exterior details that you likely won't see in the game, but such is the way it goes.

BB&T BallPark is a sunken diamond, with the top of the grandstand roughly flush with street level. The street has a definite rise to it, which proved to be a bit of a challenge but I think I got it pretty good. But because of the park's situation, the majority of the park is ringed with nets to keep errant fly balls from getting out. Unfortunately, the nets aren't very visible in-game, but if you get close enough to all the posts around the outside of the park you'll see them.

The dragon next to the batters' eye in center belches smoke when the Knights hit a home run (well, he does in real life), and I'm particularly happy with the way the murals dedicated to the history of Charlotte ballparks along the outside wall along third base came out.

Thanks to the merger of BB&T and SunTrust, the park received a new name. I have edited things to reflect the new name, although those are merely cosmetic - the park hasn't changed structurally.
