Now that fall has come again, I got the bug to build something. This time around I decided it was time to finally build a wizards tower, but im also going to add a model terrain. I'm going over a few ideas for the terrain but I haven't settled on anything as of yet. As for the tower, here is the initial pics:
As you can see the upper portion of the tower, which is 4" in Diameter by 2.5" tall, Is a bit rough on the top surface. I'm leaving this to give it a weathered appearance, the columns are made of .25" dowels.
After deciding to not have a conical style roof, I removed the center of the top surface, giving it more of a greek architectural feel. (Our wizard inspects the new construction)
This is the platform I plan on using, but it might be too small for the terrain im thinking of doing. The walls where just something i was messing around with, but I dont plan on using any. (that pesky cleric really want into the tower)
Next up I cut out three pieces of wood to be used for the stairs leading up to the main entrance of the tower.
The Tower is a 4" in Diameter by 12" tall cardboard tube. (A white robed wizards guards his tower.)

Cutting two of the pieces at an angle I created the exterior stairs. (Our unfriendly dark cleric is inspecting the stairs. He seems pleased)
Thats it for part one, I hope you enjoyed my initial construction details, stay tuned for more.
