Hello, Ryer here!

     this is another tower from Dubai, and probably the most complicated out of this single block, with Iris Bay being a close second. It features a very rounded front face with a very intricate pattern, and a intricate back face that looks like a mess, but isn't. Technically this is two skyscrapers, so the project should be 24 and 24.5, but I dont do decimals. This was one of the most difficult skyscrapers to build, and it took so long to get just the shape looking right. The facad was another story, but I did it. Its done, and I like this one really well. Hopefully you do to. As with most of my recent skyscrapers, there are sides on the podium that are blank quartz. That is where it lies directly next to another tower, in this case One business bay and Polaris (Coming Soon: its a completed build). Hopefully you like this, and yeah... Skyscraper 24 everybody!

Nice work, buddy. Came out very well. I like how you treated the glass. Looks great compared with the renders i've found online of this building. Something that may help you in the future with curved buildings like this is the golden mean for curves. Look into the number sequence for that, it helps make curves look a lot smoother (something to experiment with). I use it a lot in my buildings, and it's helped me out a lot, so if you have any questions about that, feel free to ask me, i can help explain what i'm talking about. I just say this as some of the curves here look a little inconsistent when i looked really closely at this. (this is me nitpicking, so you know you did a good job if i'm doing that haha).

Ill try that, that was not done with polaris, as it was already complete by this upload, but I will try and mess around with that. For this perticular skyscraper though, I had way more trouble with its shape than I should of, and I resorted to having a computer do it for me, so this is that result. I appreciate the advice, your comment is always one of the more valuble. :)

A computer program certainly explains the jaggedness of the curves. I tend to use the golden mean ratios to a near zealous level in any build that requires a curve. It just always comes out clean, and you can usually plan out the outline of a structure like this fairly well. That's how it is for me, at least.
