    Default Sketchup staircase MCE re-creation wip

    Here's my attempt to re create a Famous staircase, I dont think it can be redone completely, this is how far I got before I got a headache.

    I tried another image that MCE did a while back of stacking triangles, and just couldn't get it right, so I thought this was gonna have a similar problem.

    I'm almost done with the staircase now and it seems it can be done completely, so when i'm done in sketchup i'm gonna try making it from wood and make it a displaycase. i'll post an image here. Haven't slept very much because i'm trying to make it so that all rooms and stairs all lead somewhere, and i'm also working on a short clip where u you walk all through the house, always wanted to do that since I first saw the image in my highschool 20 years ago. Dont stare at the images to long or you may get dizzi

    Thanks for all the comments, they are always motivating.
    Added the triangle i tried a while back.

    I found this image while doing a esher search, and looks so close to what I got.

    I'm not sure if the stairs are an Escher drawing or not.

    There is a scene in the movie Labyrinth that uses multiple stair cases in that configuration.

    Labyrinth (1983) uses a castle which represents theme of Escher's artwork "Relativity". I really liked that movie aswell, have always been interested in strange looking images.

    Here is the finished Staircase, all rooms and stairs lead to other rooms and stairs, and could be played in a shooter all you'd need is gravityboots.
