Guard Tower

The guard tower was a relatively easy model to make compared with the other two. It consists of 4 rectangle primitives that are long and thin for the legs, which were then cloned and rotated to the side to serve as support pylons. A rectangle was then aligned on the top of these struts and hollowed out using the Boolean subtract method. 4 smaller rectangle rods were used as supports for the roof which was a simple pyramid shape, matched in width and length of the tower. I added a searchlight using a cylinder primitive and a security obstruction around the bottom half of the tower by stretching out the vertexes on a rectangle primitive. To add more interest to the object I added a plane base with several crates and barrels to fit in with the rest of the scene.
