If you can't make it, you can: not making it or do it really minimalistic.

Not a 3D tutorial on how to make the eiffel tower, but some  reference images that could help if you decide to model it.
 You'd need to learn some basics of 3D modelling.  Extruding, usig ref images etc.
 The Anim8or manual will help, and other 3D modelling tutorials. (google) 
 It'll be a challenging journey, but you'd learn a lot by putting some serious time into this project.
 Good luck.

 The 'shape' could be modelled, and the laticework of beams could be done with textures.
   Will take a bit of working out to get it 'four sided'.
 If it's too much, you could find a free 3d download of the eiffel tower, and upskill your modelling by doing some slightly easier projects to start with. ;)

Someone just gave me a Eiffel Tower model on Discord. They said that there is no texture on the model, so it's probably fine, I will find it on the internet. Here's the model

 Hi there Steve :)
 Has been a while. That's just some pics i found on line. ;)
 I had a bit of a disaster on my main pc, a while ago now, so have been restricted to laptop.
 Should be able to save stuff from my main hard drives. Have found another desktop now, so just a matter of hooking it up...........
 Thumbs up. Keep well. Thank you.  :)

Sagadali523  Good luck with that model.  The bottom 'platform' looks a bit fat. If you decide to try tweaking it up a little, copy the original and work with the copy, so you've always got the original if 'things go wrong' ;)
