Brad Hamilton you are amazing. That is the most beautiful Lego Cathedral I
have ever seen. I was just having a serious conversation with my girlfriend
and I found this and we were both stunned to silence. She didn't even
believe it was made with Lego. For the next few minutes I showed her some of
your earlier work. I had never seen your rendition of San Carlo alle Quattro
Fontane. I was just sketching this very building 2 days ago.
Any way I've run out of words so I'll just say keep up the good work.

This is my most complex CAD structure yet.

Here is an overall view:

Here is the index to all the pictures:

I call it the Cathedral of Ice because the two towers look like huge
icicles.

I based this building on the general shape of Cologne (Koln) Cathedral in
Germany.  However, I added many elements of my own design including • modern,
curved plexiglass windows and curvy buttressing elements.  The final style
might be called "Gothic Modern."

Thanks to Mark Kennedy for providing the curved "Paradisa" windows (6002) • as
well as updating the straight version of these windows (2572) to match.
These windows were critical.  I'm so happy to have these.  Thanks Mark!

I didn't post the .dat files because there are about 5 of them plus you
would need some new parts and primatives.  If anyone is interested, I'll • be
happy to send you all the pieces.

Feedback is appreciated,

Brad
