A major event has happened the past week. We've changed the voting to an easier, sythematical approach, and hereby attracted some 30 voters! A great 180 points were given, of which 43 went to Art Deco Skyscraper by Adrian Novotny (Tesler). His greatly detailed model of a 1930s building came out beautifully in a fantastic render displayed on the detailspage. Congratulations Adrian!
