Hi every one, below is a link to a screen shot of my clock tower.

As you can see the top of the tower is a little... Small. 

I'm trying to figure out how to cap it off.

I've tried a small dome. But that looks weird. I'm not sure if a pointed roof would look good? Or make a bigger dome. Or something completely different.

So if any one has some ideas i'd be most appreciative. 

You can probably tell from the other buildings the kind of style I'm going for.

Thanks in advance.

That's a good looking base!
A lot of rl clock towers have the fattest part at the point where the clock sits, so that's already aestethicly correct.
Maybe for capping it of you could try a semented diagonal roof? So a sloped roof for 3 blocks and then have a vertical section of 3-5 and then another sloped segment. Overhang on the sloped roofs usually looks good.
Big Ben, might serve you some inspiration?

I agree with Aeghu on the segmented top. take a look at the clock of westminster in the link below for an idea. it should be easy to adapt to your style.

Hi all.
Thankyou for all your great replies. I did consider something like Westminster clock tower. However whilst googling it. And trying to get inspiration, I saw something else.
Legowar had a good recommendation as well with the smoke stacks. Hmm. Possibly. However, if you check out this next link, it has an armillary sphere made in minecraft. I saw a few real life ones whilst googling clocks. And thought it makes great sense. The clocks help people tell time in modern days. But in olden days they relied on the skies. On the stars and the planets.
The armillary sphere is the perfect way to represent the solar system. Modern clocks and olden day skies.
So wish me luck. I'll give it a go.
Just trying to decide on colours now.
Was thinking of a light blue / cyan sphere. With golden yellow rings.
Unless someone else can think of another combination.

Oh yes. I better post the link.

I have some work ahead now I think.

That is gonna make for some good block counting.
But definitely an awesome idea to finish of a steam-punky tower!
Good luck

Love the sphere, awesome build.
