This really must be rough trying to visualize, nevermind model! My utmost complements to your tenacity. Wondered if the first story front columns are tilted to the back and vise versa for the rear columns? The 2nd story looks normally modeled except on an angle. Yes?

NHArtist - it was definately tricky. the key was realizing that at one point all of the base pillars have to be parrallel. there is actually a math problem getting them to line up correctly & having the corners of the building line up. tomorrow ill upload the "visualization" piece to this. It will certainly let you see just exactly what had to be done to this model in order to get the right illusion & the perspective. (no camera warp in this image - its a flat front side view) the pillars are "S" shaped actually, but yah - you nailed the idea, and to answer your question about the second story? yes.. and yet a resounding no. :D (watch for the visualization render) thank you very much for the comments :) and - dragonchild75 - thank you poopie :) really nice of you to say :D

I saw the Max post- you've really done this justice. Eschers work is a wealth of imagination and genius that begs to be visualized in CG. Excellent work.

"Don't know who the person is,but my eyes are freaking out..so I say cool..and nice posing too! " Wow, I've never met anyone from MARS before... lol Cool render. The dark spots on the columns bug me a bit, though. great stuff though

:) thanks everyone :) turner? thats the thing im working on the most... the bottom pillars are a very sharp S curve. so it makes it very difficult to light right above them. im still trying to figure them out, because yah. it bugs me something fierce too. (also - the top pillar that is darker - i had an inverted face issue up there.. so next phase will be better) thanks again everyone for the nice words.

sure can, I've done the Klimmenundallernhaus..and couldn't get the stairs to line up. Someone has managed to do it, it involves stairways that don't actually connect, then placing the view at a specific angle..great work, keep it up..
