If you can build one side, you could then duplicate them and build it that way, but maybe someone will have time to build one for you. Good luck!

the object you're asking for is a simple geosphere with some extra details added. That's not quite right, airflamesred, you see in the pic the object has those square panels on it, plus the lego-esque pegs on normal panels. It's good for the what, 5, 10 minutes you spent on it, but not exact. I sound kinda mean... shrug

I can give it a shot when I get home. More views would be welcome. I think it will be big, polygon-wise. All that supports, various surfaces...

Well, it's not exactly that, either, Richard. You missed the squares on the sides.
