Ooo, tall  :)

Is it based on a real building because I don't think I've seen anything like that before?

It´s typical for Germany. Those buildings host transformers to transform 110.000 V into 380 V for housholds.

Thanks Michi, I assume that the power cables come from the three small 'things' at the top.

Looking forward to seeing it painted  :)

cheers
