I found a picture in the Net that showed this great Mosque. I wanted to pixel it and it came in hand, that I have been promoted in Pixelplaza. That means I am able to ake a Supremehouse in Supremecity.

And thats my Supremehouse. Took me several hours. I used PS CS2 to do it.

here is a link to the model i used: http://stuff.ohrboot.de/pixel/moscheeVorlage.jpg
and here is a little making-of: http://stuff.ohrboot.de/pixel/

I hope u like it.

You may have missed my last sentence. "I also think this is the Hagia Sophia Mosque in Turkey"

I quite like the style here, the soft palette and what appears to be no outlines overall, makes the piece look smaller and more detailed. Very nicely done.

I think this is really beautiful, but I agree with the comment below that the domes could use some smoothing and maybe a more interesting color palette (even if it's just a higher-contrast version of what you've got) would help. Maybe make the lighting more dramatic or incorporate an interesting color from a sunset or other unusual light effect.

I think that this piece kinda failed on both the artistic and technical side. On the artistic, it seems more like a factory than a mosque. Perhaps its the lack of details or color selection. The domes even is simple in color on the original are much too bland here. On the technical side the domes are not true isometric, and rather jaggy in many parts. When choosing pieces for recreation in isometric its very important to make a choice based on the roof and not the building itself. I also think this is the Hagia Sophia Mosque in Turkey.
