8 in Fieldstone Tower

Awhile back I decided that I wanted an 8" fieldstone tower. Since there wasn't one available through Hirst Arts I decided to do my own. I used the existing 8" Gothic Round tower mold and the Ruined Tower Mold to get the basic pieces then carved the fieldstone pattern onto the these blocks. You can see my tutorial on how to carve fieldstone pieces for more information on this.

	The complete set of pieces. This includes 5 basic blocks, 2 short blocks, 2 floor tiles, an arrow slit, a 9" block, a flat 8" block, a very short 8" block, 8" arches, 9" arches, a stair piece, an arch extension, and a trim piece. I found out that the 6" fieldstone tower teeth pieces fit perfectly with this tower so I didn't do any of those pieces
A shot of a basic 8" block partially carved to show how the pieces were made.
	Here's a shot of an 8" block with a 6" block from the 6" Fieldstone tower mold.
A dry build with the 8" arch pieces.
	A dry build with the 9" arch pieces. I didn't have enough 9" basic blocks for this so I used the 8" pieces. It looks ok for a dry build and gives an idea of the final product of the arches.
Here's a shot of the arch extension. One extension will give an arch big enough for the standard door like is on the Fieldstone Accessory Mold #71. Any number of extension pieces can be added to make as big an arch as you want.
	The same pieces as above but split up to show the arch extension piece in the middle.

Some shots of the final tower.
