I take 2 ice cream stick, and draw a few lines (image diagram). Then, I cut the sticks and I have 4 parts. Next, I glue them together, and I file the surface according to the lines.

The Comm Tower

Remember the toothpick?

I cut it in 1cm long, and I glue it on top of the building.

For the land, I cut the large ice cream stick in two. Using a file, I rasp it into a curve (2nd image), then I glue it together.

The Sites

For the two sites, I cut the remaining ice cream stick into two parts (1cm X 1cm). Then, I draw each of them a border. Now, I have the site of north tower and the site of south tower.

Using the tower location (left image taken from Google Images), I corrected the placement of the parts.

Lastly, the comparison size between a match.
