About This File

A dedication to the FireFirefighters of the world. A replica of The Glass Tower from the Towering Inferno Disaster Movie. The Tower stands at over 430m high, whilest only occupying a 8x7 footprint. Features nightlighting, a crowd at the main entrance and a medium flammability level for film re-enactments. Cost: 135,000, requires power & water. Found in the Landmarks menu.

 

This new revision, made 6 years after my first ever STEX creation has taken over 4 months to complete and is based on the films original design blueprints and high detail photographs of the original 70ft movie model made available to me by Ryan Thoryk of The Skyscraper Project. I hope you enjoy it!

The model itself is outstanding!! I can tell a lot of work went into the 3D modeling. I agree with others, though, that the colors are a bit too clean and plain. The roof is flat grey and the walls are flat gold. A simple adjustment to them to make them look more like concrete/gravel and metal curtain sheeting (Photoshop) and this building would deserve top marks!

Give us a redo of the textures, and I will definitely download this one. I will give a 4/5 now. I so want to give this a 5.

Thank you everyone, I will certainly look at making the building look less "clean" for the next revision if it will get me better marks! :)

Great building. But for me, it is a little too orange. During your next revision, maybe you could make it less clean and less orange, other than that nice work. 4/5
