HABMOD - shape of ground plan?
 

Hi,

sorry, if i startet this topic in wrong section and ofcourse for my horrible english :)

i try for drawing a plan of main section of Hell's Gate and i started with HABMOD... now i have a question; what is basic shape of this building? Octagonal, or dodecagonal?

here is my analysis (i aplogize for any calculation mistakes... but i be very glad, if you warn on this mystake :) )

Thanks for yours opinions :)

i have seen maps for hell's gate on AF but i cant remember the source. look around on the internet for concept drawings, a number of artists worked on it. you will find birds eye views of the layout :D

It isn't a flat geometric shape the whole way up.

I found only one bird view, but here is concept, that dissacord with final concept


yes, yes i know... but here is used "basic" shape for whole building... u posted picture, where is basic shape circle... but this plan is evidently orientation, becouse in final concepts and in film and game we can see, that habmob have as basich shape less or more shapely polygon (if i'll be know what is basic shape, other shapes conected to basic shape i can easily derive)

thanks
