Dubai Eye #TEMPTED

#TEMPTED - My submission for the Paradox modeling contest!

The Dubai Eye is currently under construction in Dubai and will be the tallest ferris wheel in the world upon completion.

NOTE: Unfortunately the wheel is not rotating like the London Eye from the european building patch. Please excuse this flaw but custom animation is not supported (yet).

About the model:

Due to the lack of footage and the fact that the real ferris wheel is still in the early steps of construction, this model may or may not be accurate at all. I've modeled mostly from low quality marketing renderings and invented the parts that were not shown properly. i still hope you like the outcome!

The contest also restricted the absolute triangle count of the entries to 4,000. Therefor the model is less detailed than I'd want it to be. There are also no ambient props added; feel free to do this on your own.

As mentioned above, the wheel is not rotating.
