A cut plane rises through the model and everything below it is finished work — stone, timber, plaster, tile — while the scaffolding waits above the line. Switch the style and the same construction runs as a Japanese tenshu, a Chinese pagoda, a Vietnamese tháp, a Thai prang, a Khmer prasat, or an Ottoman mosque. View the live site Inspiration Built after seeing @IndieDevHailey's ancient tower study, where a Chinese tower assembles itself inside a print-like layout. That post set the frame: a fixed camera, a rising build, and typography that behaves like a page rather than a UI. Everything past that — the architecture, the landscape, the times of day, the weather, the sound — came from asking for one behaviour at a time and rebuilding whatever looked wrong. What is inside - Six towers modelled at the same level of detail: a Japanese tenshu with stone ishigaki base, plastered storeys and flying eaves; a Chinese pagoda in vermilion lacquer and green glaze under a gilt finial; a Vietnamese tháp of seven octagonal storeys in Huế lime wash, each ringed by a tiled eave whose corners lift; a Thai prang rising from a stepped plinth to a gold spire; a Khmer prasat on laterite terraces, redented on plan, with false doors on three sides and five diminishing storeys; and an Ottoman mosque carrying a lead dome on an octagonal transition between two pencil minarets. - A construction that runs in 4.40 seconds, caption","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/MengTo","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/MengTo/towers/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
