I 'borrowed' the idea of this one from the virtualight gallery over at 
3dvirtualight.com - It's still a WIP because I need to apply some of my 
own textures- not that the ones that are there look bad... but, just 
throwing it out there.

If I didn't choose such obsure numbers for the arches, I could add more 
by scaling them by half and changing the number of degrees from 45 to 
22.5, and changing the number of supports from 8 to 16... but, whatever.

Is the dome supposed to be missing every 4th beam? That was throwing my
perception off at first while I looked at the symmetry of this structure.
:)

Not only that, I can't help but notice the rotation offsets of the column
base and cap blocks. Was the original like that, or are you changing those
too? Or am I exposing your mistakes. Ha ha!

Not really 'missing every 4th beam' but more like a cross made out of 
three beams only. It looks cool, I guess. The original didn't have it...

Not sure how the original did it, but I like it this way. We'll see.
