Hmm... not bad. The color scheme works quite well. Is this the same
scale as your Empire State Building?

No, not quite... it's a little bit smaller.  It would probably have to be about
50% bigger.  I guess if I'd thought about it (at all) before building it, it
would have made sense to do it in the same scale, even if it meant it would take
longer to build.

Oh, darn it, now you've got me thinking about building a second one to stand
next to my Empire State! :)

I actually started out by building one of the middle floors in the main tower
first (to get the windows aligned the way I wanted) and then kind of went from
there.


I don't really like the top though. It looks too simplified of a
representation for the scale you are using.

Yeah, I actually feel the same way...  I didn't really play with many variants,
I  just sort of "did it".  This will probably be something I fiddle around with
...  I'll snap some new pictures if I make any changes.
