Nice start user added image

I'd like to see a fly through in the gates around the keep and down into the dungeon. Is it going to be that detailed???

Been a fan of castles since this high - am looking forward to it.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the scene just yet.
But I hope to get in a lot of detail before I finish.

Thanks for your comment. I agree 100% with you.

The grass shader is only there to add contrast the building at this stage. user added image

Very cool so far! I like seeing the progression of the projects. It makes one appreciate the work that is put into modeling anything in a 3d package. You picked an awesome castle to model!
