Scratch building a tower and dome from card and paper : Victorian Hotel Part 15

I made an octagonal tower for my low-relief scratch-built Victorian hotel that I am building out of card for my N gauge UK model railway, Chandwell. Using only card and inkjet-printed paper, I show you how I made this tower as the crowning centrepiece of the hotel that I have spent 158 hours scratch building from card for my N Gauge model railway layout. The scratch building techniques that I show in this video can be used to make almost any building out of card in any scale. I am particularly happy with the domed roof, or cupola, which I made using only card and paper. I was surprised by how easy that this turned out to be!
