First of all, welcome... I'm sure you'll have a great time here... It is a really good start, if it's your first model...

785 8th Ave.

In 1/1700th scale

[IMG][/IMG]


I'm just fascinated by how skinny this tower is (about 8m) and how tall it is (172.5m!)

The folding tabs are very small on this, if I could have made them bigger I would have, regardless, I'm sure this won't be a problem for any of you. And for your reference, the finished product...

[IMG][/IMG]

note: (the slim long piece on the front goes on an angle, and you can see the roof of the Brazilian grill is double layered on the back, I accidentally made it too long and just wanted it to look like it had an edge instead of abruptly stopping. This issue has been fixed on the finished product and shouldn't give you any trouble. I did not fix the roof of 785 itself to exactly where you should fold it, but I'm sure you can just fold it when you're assembling it.)

Thank you! I'm considering doing the entire block that its located on, a bunch of low rise stiff. I just think it would make a good foreground to have low rise buildings in my city. Make it look more realistic.

Good guess Skyscrapers144! hahaha, that picture is about 6 years old, a couple of friends from high school and we had a party, and for some reason we decided to stick q-tips up our noses and take a picture... it just makes me crack up every time.

I had been designing more low rise buildings next to 785, but i gave it a rest for today and just spent time building more models.
