Steve,
Great job!  The shingles are the best I have ever seen on a water tank top.  What is hard to believe is this tank is HO Scale.  Just the thought of cutting & hand laying shingles in a concentric shaped cone top & keeping them looking perfect you get the best done award (if there is one)

Beautiful water tower Steve. Very nicely done. :) Wish we had some of these kits in N scale.

Stay cool and run steam..... 8) 8)

Thanks Everyone!

The individual shingles aren't as difficult as you might think. I just followed the roof card lines to keep them straight. Im glad you guys like them. I plan on using them from now on on most of my models.
