A month ago i started building 1:1 scale model of LOTUS TEMPLE which is Baha'i faith temple situated in New Delhi , India.
Well i managed to make a lot of progress but major amount of work is still left.Its a fairly complex build involving understanding of co-ordinate geometry and parabolic equations (dont sweat that part is over ...and even i am not so perfect at it btw i am only 16 , lol u cant expect more! )so 1 wrong placed block means i have to do the whole petal again at least most of it. The build isnt perfect copy of the original , I have made lot of changes but still couldnt simplify it enough, it still is very complex.Here are some pics ...so feel free to temme what you guys think about it and if u wanna help then I am building this on strictlyawesome server who's ip is
minecraft.strictlyawesome.com.
I typed this post in a hurry so pardon my ignorance.
I am sorry i suck at taking pics..and yeah i appreciate ur views and take criticism positively!!

*WINK*

note: ice or water!!! temme!!

NOTE: no pluggin or world edit were made use of its all handmade

and here is the mcforum link

www.minecraftforum.net/topic/939274-lotus-temple-11-scale/page__p__11913589__fromsearch__1#entry11913589

I used MCEdit to make it. I used the hollow brush to create the spheres as an technical exercise, so it came from experimenting with that. I came up with the idea for the spheres layout from some 2d art I did a while back with geometrical designs.
