Temple of Vesta V2

thingiverse

I designed this model for my wife while she was working on a book about the Vestal Virgins: ancient Roman priestesses who devoted their lives to maintaining an eternal flame in their sacred temple. Although the temple still stands, albeit partially, it has largely disintegrated over time and only a small portion of the original structure remains intact. Through meticulous historical research, we were able to reconstruct a plausible representation of how the temple likely appeared. I thought the temple's intricate design would make an excellent entry into the Thingiverse Art Challenge: See The World Contest, so I modified the model to facilitate easier printing and assembly. Here is the revised version. Additionally, I have included a step-by-step assembly video https://youtu.be/KYSF8zDNJPA for your convenience.
