It is an improvement, well done. I do think it would be a good exercise to practice on a real building at this point. All of the particulars of the design will be taken care of by the original architect so you can focus on making a believable representation rather than have to worry about everything at once. I look forward to your next project!

Actually, I like both, so one of my cities will have twin towers, just different enough to be distinguishable from one another. 5/5 9/10

If all newbies have your dignity and determination to improve, perfect, and most of all, listen to advice, the Stex will be so much more enjoyable. Looking forward to your future work, and hopefully you will soon make your bats functional. ;-)

narkussos, thanks for your question. this will not replace the original. It's a separate plugin. Remove the original building from your cities then the files if you dont want the original. Thanks for the reminder, I also made an update to the details on the STEX!

Although the building looks great, the air pollution it generates is much more than what a typical SC4 residential or commercial building generates. I noticed that there were deep yellow coloring around the Radiant buildings when I was looking in "Air Pollution" data view and when I demolished the Radiant buildings, the pollution disappeared.
