Love the level of detail you use excellent build!!!!

WOW!!!! This is AMAZING!!!!! By any chance are you going to build the upcoming shanghai world expo to compliment this amazing building?

Yes. Our local club was asked by the museum to display some models from a variety of themes as part of the Castle exhibit.

Another amazing skyscraper, Spencer. Also, congratulations on the museum display. Is that running concurrently with the LEGO Castle exhibit, that I thought was also there now? Are they having sort of a LEGO theme, or was that just coincidence?

Great Job!! I REALLY like the effects at the pinnacle. In fact, I had always wondered what a Jin Mao Tower made by you would look like. Are the plates in between the 1x1 transparents light gray, light bluish gray, or very light gray?

David, I'm envious of your international travels. You need to come to Brickworld next year with your Oriental Pearl Tower so we can create a Shanghai tower display... who is going to build the SWFC?

Probably more than a hundred. The tower is nearly solid inside and it is built as one piece. There is a central 2x2 spine running through most of it, similar to my Taipei 101.

Excellent. I had a chance to take a close look at this amazing model of the Jin Mao yesterday as Spencer put it and his other micro scale skyscrapers into a display case at The Henry Ford museum. The color selection and workmanship are superb. Good luck with the Shanghai World Financial Center!

Always amazing work! Fantastic job on the taper and the roof line.

this is really nice you should make a mini lego town out of this

I've been staring at these photos, totally amazed, for the past hour, trying to envision all the techniques that you've used. (Hopefully I'll steal...borrow some of those ideas!!). Jin Mao Tower has been on my to-do list for a while but I was never able to envision how to delicately taper the individual sections. A problems you've solved and solved well. Just how many cheese slopes did you use?

Very nicely done. Looks very real.

Wow, thats amazing, I've actually never heard of that tower before, but this still looks superb! ~T

Spencer, AWESOME! I was there in June and again in August, and you did an amazing job! You even did the building at the base that looks like an open book. Good color choice, and you got the shape down too. I don't think there's enough silver colored bricks and slopes out there in all of BrickLink to do that. Good use of artistic license on the mathematical sturcture to the bldg as well. I think the base section is 12 stories, then a setback, followed by a section of 11 stories, then a setback, etc ten times until you get to the peak. I've studied the shape of this bldg in great detail, so if I approve of it, consider yourself gold seal stamped. I especially like the view looking down, the view you get when you're in the observation decks of the SWFC that sits next door.

This is extremly cool. The tower looks perfect. Was it a comishoned model> It would look great in the Jin Mao Towers Loby!
