And one more for the night - from here on out there are a number of TV towers I should be able to breeze through...

Here is Federation Tower in Moscow, Russia!



I did a ton of research on this one before modeling as I wanted to get the shape just right. It has two triangular towers with curved faces and a parabolic curve from top to bottom but most other models I've seen mistakenly taper on the inward facing facade, which while it does seem to have a very slight taper, it's barely noticeable when compared to the way the outside edges curve inward towards the top.

The base section is a football shape which outlines the two towers with space between them and has oddly shapes portions which form an overall rectangular footprint but cut in to reveal the face of the 'football'. It's a very cool structure and I enjoyed modeling it. I even included the logo on both sides of the shorter tower!
