The base is octagonal, as is the main body. The top can turn 360 degrees, so
it can be turned in and out of the wind. in absence of wind, it is powered by
a micromotor :) , speed of the blades is therefore relatively realistic.
Here is a pic, click on it to go to my brickshelf folder:

Snipped pic, kept link... ah, dialup...

It will be on display at this weekends’ Marcon show (post about that will
follow).
Comments welcome,

Nicely done Paul. I especially like how you tpered the tower with the walls
tilted in. That’s something I wouldn’t have attempted without having seen it;
the gaps are much smaller than one would expect. What an excellent use for the
tan dome.
That’s going to be an amazing town once you are finished. I never got around to
saying how much I liked your town hall, but I agree with the other responses in
general. The scale is more convincing than many of the mediæval designs we see
here.
I also noticed in your gallery, the MHOF building I marvelled at a long time
ago. Awesome. I heartily recommend checking the rest of Paul’s gallery, for
those who haven’t seen it yet.
Keep up the good work Paul.
Peace and tilting,
Professor Whateverly
