O Scale rooftop watertower conversion
« on: July 06, 2007, 02:55:12 PM »
So, one of the O scale buildings came with a rooftop water tower. Now, of course it's just some plain plastic. The top is nice with seams and rivets, but the rest was blah, in my opinion. So, I did some work to it to make it look a little more appealing.

The nice things about all that I did, was that most could be duplicated without having the plastic tower to begin with. If instead of the plastic water tank, you started with a carboard tube, built the base from balsa, and made a top from card, all the rest would still work.

I'm going to put up the steps I took this weekend, but for now I have a before and after picture.

Enjoy.

Nice one! Also very suitable for the S2 "Rooftop Rumble" scenario.
I can almost see the Hulk smashing the Thing through the water tower...
