    Hi Vellum, this is indeed a great looking castle. I really love this kind of high shield walls and the proportions look very good! Sorry, i have no experience with blender, but i'm looking forward to see how this will develop

    Hey thanks guys, a little encouragement always helps to keep ya motivated LOL. Like with photoshop I struggle with blender some also. I've just been learning the UI and basic modeling, so nothing spectacular is gonna happen atm. The lighting needs improvement so that you can see the roof lines / crenelations better. My game plan for this is to end up with a rendered piece, how well that turns out is to be seen!! I'm in the process of working out the window opening and some more work on the front entrance. Another screen shot.

    Thanks John I didn't see the thread on BA on the Copenhagen Castle, been following 3dmedieval for awhile. he has a pretty good set there. So far I haven't a clue on texturing and displacement maps, still in the modelling stage. Windows / opening cutouts giving me fits LOL

    Had some more time to play, couple of updates to the model. Changed out the entry to recessed arch w/ arched doorway, worked out how to punch out the windows, have about 2/3s of them done. watched a tut on lighting, so these screenies are a tad better, well at least I hope so LOL.

    Wip Thirlwall Castle update

    Another small update, I've got all the window openings in and added chimney flues LOL. I watched a short lighting tutorial and tried it out. Don't know if it really made a difference in the lighting but I did learn a tiny bit about cycles render, so that was a good thing. I have some of the interior but I'm going to let that slide atm, to much other stuff to figure out.
