I have to "ditto" all of the above. Great build. I half expected to see a Godzilla nearby. :) Bob

Yeah...I think it could be a functional true life building any architect would be proud to put his name to...

Thanks everyone! :-)

Hey Tejanovader,

Yes, I considered it, but I never really tried. Maybe because I thought that the overall shape would be be best visible with all the lights on. I think it is something worth trying thou.

Here you can see a video of the making proces:

AMAZING......!!! One question.  Did you consider having some of the window lights "off"?

Very cool, it does look like it's off the set of 'Metropolis' though to be honest I was thinking 'Blade Runner' when I first looked!

Thanks Gerry! :-)

Yeah, the images from Metropolis have always been a great source of inspiration.

Thanks KnightTemplar!

I used mainly medium-density fibreboard for the structure. I have had it lasercut.

The results are quite impressive! I took a peek at the time lapse video posted to your site and was very intrigued by how this structure came together. What sort of materials went into creating this building?

Hello,

I would like to share a project that I recently did. I was wondering if you - the expert modelers - have any comments on this project. Thanks!
