## About

Free 3D model of a stackable octagonal minaret shaft section, 3 m tall and 1.92 m across, with panelled faces, tile insets and a moulded band of diamond bosses. Dimensions 2.21 by 3.00 by 2.21 m (X by Y by Z). Metre units, +Y up, +Z front, origin on the footprint at ground level. Connectors: foot (shaft) at (0.00, 0.00, 0.00) facing (0, -1, 0); top (shaft) at (0.00, 3.00, 0.00) facing (0, 1, 0). Tower module, origin on the centre of the foot. Beds on the minaret base or on another section and stacks as high as a tower needs; the balcony and the cap take the same seat. The moulded band is a ring of plain diamond bosses and carries no inscription. Invented throughout: no real mosque, madrasa, city, institution or identifiable building is reproduced. Every pattern on it is an abstract geometric or interlace repeat, with no inscription, calligraphy or writing of any script, and there is no figurative depiction of a person or an animal anywhere in this pack. Desert palette: sandstone ashlar and darker stone, lime plaster, cobalt and turquoise glaze, cedar, split cane, brass, wrought iron, sand and courtyard green. Static geometry; no rig, animation, collision or navigation data.

## Use with three.js

## Blender

```python
# Blender 4.x: File > Import > glTF 2.0, or from the Python console after downloading the file.
import bpy
bpy.ops.import_scene.gltf(filepath='model.glb')  # from https://cdn.3dassets.dev/assets/38115/v1/model.glb
# Metres and +Y up are converted to Blender's Z-up scene automatically.
```

## Godot

```gdscript
# Godot 4: copy model.glb into res://models/ and the editor imports it as a scene.
var packed := load("res://models/model.glb") as PackedScene
var model := packed.instantiate()
add_child(model)
```

## Unity

```csharp
// Unity: import model.glb with glTFast (Package Manager: com.unity.cloud.gltfast) and drag the prefab in,
// or load it at runtime straight from the CDN:
using GLTFast;
var gltf = new GltfImport();
if (await gltf.Load("https://cdn.3dassets.dev/assets/38115/v1/model.glb")) await gltf.InstantiateMainSceneAsync(transform);
```
