Wow! Good stuff! Just a quick question, how long did it take you to do something like this?

Sweet Peter, you sure got a good handle on constructor. ;)

Jean - Modeling it took about 8 hrs, then texturing took about another 8 hrs. Texturing took a while because I created them from scratch in Photoshop, except for the foundation stone (photo). Texturing is one of my weaknesses, which I'm working on to get better at.

I've created modules. So, even more levels could be stacked.
To be continued.....

I love the curved corners... very nice. Tell me please, did the way constructor highlights invalid brushes make it easier to create the legal geometry for the corners? They look great!

The corners I've use the clip tool. I didn't move any verts. Plus I've used the knife tool to cut the brushes into triangles, so I wouldn't run into problems with illegal brushes.

Yea nice. I used the stacking to do Taipai 101 like that.

What technique did you use to get the corners to bend like that?

So it was just blocks that I replicated except for the base and the top tower of course.
Never finished detail etc. Anyway TGEA didn't render it properly (clipped/nada) in testing from distance. No
big deal because I know that can be fixed or adjusted later.

The TP 101 I did was just a scale test to see how TGEA handles huge buildings.So it was just blocks that I replicated except for the base and the top tower of course.

Thanks for saying that! I've been having problems with verts, and haven't been able to figure it out until now, thanks! Do you think you could tell me a little more about how you did it?
