Hey gang, here's my latest creation, and a contest entry in
the Creativity Contest too.  It's part town building, part
sculpture.  You can find the Octan World Headquarters on the
town page.

Well, you captured the BP Building perfectly!  Just needs twice as many floors,
as you said.  That said, it's still huge!  I can't wait to see your latest
stuff IRL.  The vents/fans at the top and the entire glass section are
excellent too. --Bram

Thanks.  I really wanted to duplicate the unique shape of the building as
much as I could.  The facets on the roof and the bend in the middle were
vital to that.  I was bummed when I dove into the project and realized just
how many bricks it'd need to make it look good.  If anyone wants to donate
about 20,000 yellow bricks to me, I could finish the rest of it.  I don't
think it's going to happen any time soon, though.
