Turning Torso (And a Tutorial)

[Tim Danaher]

Here's a fairly accurate model of the Turning Torso by Santiago Calatrava. I say 'Fairly', because I took the liberty of making it turn through 180 degrees, instead of 90.

I've written a tutorial on how to make the 90-degree version in issue 99 of 3DWorld magazine.

I'll do some Cheetah Renders of this and post 'em in the Render Gallery.

Edit: here's a link to the tutorial and files:

Nah. I was a forceps delivery.

Hi Tim, that's a nice result actually! Glad you managed to finish it!
