I've got so many things on the go right now but, I thought I'd take some time to redo the castle I made a couple of years ago at PixelDam original verison 2 years ago:
the new version still unfinished of course:
Ideas? I've a few ideas that I will save for my final version. Edited May 15th at 12:17pm : Finished moat, added entrance, added and completed windows, some subtle details. More to come |

Nice work, can't wait to see it done.
Here's a quick idea on how to break the monotomy of those bricks: 
Also, you could make a few bricks lighter or darker, or make them cracked. Keep it up. ------------- Reaching out to embrace the random. Reaching out to embrace whatever may come. I embrace my desire to swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human. |

PsychoCrap - I guess you've not seen pixeldam before. There is a limited space in which I can build. You're water looks a bit bright as well. Thanx for trying though :) ------------- |

Great job, I love it so far. The wood texture looks great. The windows are perfect. The mote is awsome. Great job.

For some reason I see a side walk around the whole thing... Maybe it's that black outline around it, I don't know. I'm really trying to give suggestions here but it's hard to stop staring at that unique spiffy style of yours. ------------- http://zoomrix.com - My Portfolio |
