Ok I await with interest

103 stories so far, 7 stories shorter than the old WTC, so what will its final height be and how you plan to beat the BATs limitations that handicaped Op4s large tower?

I would love that if it wasn't so tall! Maybe a smaller version? 60-70 floors?

    Perhaps you should break the 90° corners somehow, since you tried to avoid them in the base form of your building. Make it less or more then 90° like the left part of the building.

    And for the roof on the left, perhaps some sort of penthouse(the one of the boss of the corporation) or a greenhouse like glass quarter-tube with nice nightlighting (could be the conference room) 3.gif

    Looks great. I like the last texture of row 4 and the second texture of row 1. 115 stories is really cool. If you do a shorter version, make it 88 stories since their are no BATs with 88 stories. For a name, how about the "Paragon Tower"?

    Nice work Bix, and for names, something generic would do. something like "Tower of dreams" "triumph tower" or whatever doesn't cut it, how about something like 657 North Street or something?

    N° 2 of the last row looks perfect.. But prehaps you could make it more shiny? ... I Love shiny 9.gif

    And mhh, for a name....... Something with 'Corporation' at the end? 'Cause there are no buildings on the stex who have that..

    Not everything in this world has to be "cool" you know..2.gif

    You thought about adding trusses or whatever that goes arround the windows on the  building in an X shape  by the way?

    And is this tower going to have a some sort of base building? Does look sorta weird with it is just standing alone like that.

    First, it's a very nice shape. i love the way the base looks. it looks like this building could be the centerpiece of a city and that base is very welcoming. I like the first two pictures in the last row the best, but all of the ones in the last row are good.

    As far as names, i like "International Place" or "Wentworth Plaza" or even "One Federation Place" for cool, yet generic names.

    I'll be content with whatever you do. nice work

    Oh I love that very last texture. What I'm saying is its such a nice BAT that its a shame I cant use it, the reason being its too tall for my tastes 3.gif I'm going like completely against your project to make something tall here 3.gif and requesting a possibly shorter version for us folks who don't try to reach for heaven like you do 3.gif (and your doing it quite well by the way, God must like you).

    Wow! I usually don't like excessively tall buildings, but this one is actually very elegant! I love it.

    Concerning the textures, I'd definitely go with something from the bottom row -- either the first or last.

    Can't wait to see where this goes!
