What a fun subject for modelling. Saw one of these locally in beautiful condition. Great model project.

Bravo to both.

This is such a magnificent, well executed, beautiful work of discipline, passion, experience and a great use of tools. And what you are sharing in public today?! OUTSTANDING!

Congratulations!!! Well done Marcello!

Thank you Tuna.

Thank you Tuna.

Thanks Tuna

"utterly impractical" I think fairly describes this piece.
However, it does look like a fun, "Why not?!" project! Good job.

Thank you Mike.

Thank you.
I remember what a pleasurable pause from what I was doing that was. Pretty fun deviation.

I'm so glad this question was asked. Was having the same issue and ran into some bumps. The answers here help. Had a brain fart and forgot about SketchUV's save function. Good call. Thanks.

Thanks Eric.

Very spooky in today’s environment.

Original "fears" is what inspired it. Today's environment has grown it's own fears beyond what the originals provoked in building this model. As scary as it was, I felt pressed to do this... but, now... the scare, in perspective, is that it will be finished when I have time.

Thanks Dave Cahall.

Very kind to say so. Thanks

Thank you, Mike.

Thank you, Bryan.

Here, you can see why the Alpine Hotel model did not need to be highly detailed as it is seen from a distance.

Thank you, Bryan.

As these were never meant to be shown close up (camera within balcony or such), I didn't waste time making them so that every edge was bevelled or that textures could be scrutinised close up. So... basic build without prepping model for something as close as interior or close up exterior renders, which would require more work than invested.

Thank you, James.

Living in Switzerland, this looks so authentic... except for the bear, which exists in zoos but not wandering around. LOVELY work!
