Hi,

can someone please re-upload the model. Both the dropbox links are down.

Thanks a lot!!

after a timeout I took this model again and found some more time to render a few angles. see a photo from the original set and the rendered replica. rendered with thea presto in record time of 3 minutes (would have been already good enough after 1m probably). absolutely no postwork done apart from contrast and levels.

Can you upload the model to the Gallery or to the SketchUp model library to download here or through SketchUp? The Dropbox links don't seem to stay around.

I'm thinking of using it as a base for a buildable elevated home. Top level as a home office (with a great distracting view, obviously), the 2 living levels (with pool and heliport for an ultralight 2-seater copter (yes, they do exist), and the lower level as a workshop/garage ( to store an Elio car/Smart car/Lit Motors car-bike, or an ELF electric-assist trike). Needs either a ramp or lift-assist entry, of course, I plan to design that once I have a model to start with...

Just following the old adage, "Good programmers copy, great programmers copy and revise it to make it better..."

BTW, when I said "buildable", I meant the house, not the spire foundation. Since the filmmakers built a full-scale set, the house itself is "buildable". If you throw enough money at it, anything is "buildable"... lol

I'm thinking of a hillside mounting, similar to the Stahl House/Case Study House #22 in the Hollywood Hills of Los Angeles.

Maybe not as awe-inspiring as the movie, but still an inspiration...

I just wanted a model to play with, and this is the best that I have come across.

I would also very much appreciate someone uploading the model again as the Dropbox links die rather quickly.

Again, thanks to Castromann for your fantastic work, the renderings and model look beautiful.

unfortunately not the last version - had some data loss recently. so expect some rough edges and bad texturing here and there. that's all I can offer. have fun!
