Ladies and Gentlemen, after a very long wait may I present the Russia Tower.
It’s taken 18 months to get to this point (I’ve had a busy life!) but it’s finally here.
Aside from a total revision of the model, things didn’t work out quite right at the last minute as I’ve had to host this on Imageshack temporarily, while google pages is down temporarily. When it’s back up and running, I’ll host it on my miniskyscraper website. For now, here’s the files

Note: As the tower has no orientation specific texturing, you can print the tower part off 3 times and fit to the base.
The base is in three parts and has to be assembled into one
Note: The tower is too big to fit on one page for 1:1700 scale, therefore, you’ll have to print off the tower onto two pages, trim the lower half and glue lower and upper half together.
Print all parts by switching all margins to zero and switch off horizontal and vertical centering.
The tower total height should be ideally 35.85 cm, equivalent to 609.5m at 1:1700 scale height.
Finally, RIP Russia Tower, as the real thing has been cancelled.:cry:
Despite all this, enjoy!
