Playing with Corn-Cob Water Tower Proportions

Well, this was my first attempt at a paper corn-cob water tower (that we have in Rochester). Not very pretty, I just went with a cylinder to get started with proportions. In real life the water tower is 150 feet tall...

I went with a shorter corn cob, but it still just didn't look right...the blue water tower would be 77 feet tall in real life....on the ground next to it is my first cob attempt...

I then made it with a tapered top. I think I need to flare out the legs a bit, bat at least it's starting to look like a corn cob...
