      This is a model of a recently (2001-2006) built church in Turin, Italy, called "Santo Volto" which means "Holy Face".
      The architect is Mario Botta: visit his website for more infos.

      I made this file for Google Earth, so i tried to keep the file size as low as possible and i'm quite happy with the result.

      EDIT: i uploaded a new version of the model including the surrounding buildings.

        y'know, for a church, that's pretty cool looking.
        great modeling, julius.

            Thanks!
            Actually there's a bit of an argument between those who say it's great looking and those who say it's a crap.

              well, I can understand both sides 😉

              Julius, you know how to "component" things - a wonderfully clean model!

                  I don't like the church. It's ugly.

                  Well, I mean, your model is well done, but I don't like the building at all. 💚

                  Forgive my spanglish...

                      Hi guys,
                      I NEED YOU!
                      my model was not accepted for the '3D Buildings' layer.
                      here you can find the reveiw.
                      it seems that my model was not accepted for a Z-fighting issue. so i checked out my model but i couldn't find it. could you help me in finding it?
                      see the model at the 3d warehouse

                      Thanks a lot in advance!!! ☀

                                  Of the 3 id go for the 1st one, i find the linework a it overpowering in the second 2.

                                  Overall i tihnk the linework could do with being toned down a bit, good use of colours though, very subtle.
