Skyscraper 05

A sleek tapering tower that leans skyward from a landscaped plaza. This high-rise narrows as it climbs, its floor bands stacking into a subtly pyramidal profile and capping off with a boxy rooftop mechanical penthouse. It stands on a two-tier plinth complete with a small arched entrance canopy and a cluster of boulders or planters at street level, so it presents as a finished city lot rather than a bare block. Drop it into city dioramas, N or HO model-railway skylines, modern and near-future tabletop terrain, or use it as a minimalist desk ornament. Because the walls are simple faceted planes, it prints fast and clean and reads convincingly when massed into a wider cityscape. Print notes: • Prints upright straight off the plate; the wide plinth gives it a stable footing, so no raft is needed. • The tapering walls lean out slightly. A low support density or a handful of edge supports under the base courses keeps them tidy. • Layer lines actually help sell the stacked floors, so 0.2 mm draft is fine; drop to 0.12 mm if you want smoother glass facades. • Scale it down for railway backdrops or up into a solid paperweight, and hollow the core to save filament on the larger prints.
