Just showing off this complete (aside from some extremely fiddly texture adjustment, but who knows when I'll remember to do it) build. It's my first truly complex build, so I'm kind of proud of it.

The build itself is inspired by, and a tribute to, the Dark Tower series of novels by Stephen King - the Tower itself, the field of roses that surrounds it, and a nearby meeting plaza to converse with friends - I also run classes there. (It's also, so far as I know, the first complete build in Neualtenburg aside from the city itself - easy enough to find, should you pop into the sim!)

(I'd also like to give credit to Foolish Frost, who handed me some useful rose ironwork textures, and Logan Bauer, who made the infamous "Black 13" for display within the Tower.)

It's an impressive build both technically and artistically. I love the details that Aliasi has included from the novels.

I looked over this build while at Ali's primtionary event the other day. I wondered what it was all about. Now I know. Great work, Ali!

Got to see it while being built! The design is great, especially with the pattern on the floors.

Take the 10 minutes to look. You can afford it for this one.
