hey there,

my building is a cone shaped concrete thing. I used solid blend to create the building. It seems like you cannot create a fully coneshaped building and use wall by face, for it cannot detect the space or something.

Anyway, my question is this: to create a full cone i want to connect a new concrete top with the rest of the building, but i haven't found a good way to create a cone so that it has the same angle and has a material added to it. Namely, concrete.

You can create the top concrete bit as a wall rather than a mass and give it a concrete material.  This can be done as a revolve in elevation to get the angle correct.

Use a triangle and revolve it to get a true cone.
