I’m trying to create a control tower that is uniquely shaped like a cone. I thought I could create a 12 sided circle and then scale down the bottom, and while that works on the basic shape, if I add in the various features on the control tower, mainly the windows, the scaling no longer applies from the bottom all the way to the top, but instead only from the bottom to the next line or segment. Is there a way to do this where the entirety of the shape is affected and not just sections of the shape?
