(...) Hey, don't be badmouthing the yellow :) And the fact that the Bricksburg Hotel and the Octan HQ are the same color is strictly coincidence.

(...) Thanks. I wanted to try and emulate the sloped front of the real building as close as possible. The best way to do that, since I used all my thin walls for the roof panels, was to use car windshields, similar to what I used on the Museum ((URL) (23 years ago, 10-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.arch)
