I haven't done a lot of these kind of things, so overall I am glad it came out as it did. I would make some changes doing this again, especially to the overall plan, but I like the atmosphere and shading, which was one of my big goals.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

wow dude that looks great! Keep practictin with that and they will look amazing!! :D

Thanks! Next time I hope to have a more extreme view with it towering into the upper atmosphere. I need practice on persepective and designs, so will be focusing on that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This was fun to do though.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And I just found TONS of new painter brushes I wish I had last night when working on this.

It looks great! But I guess it's just me being stupid, but what are those squares on the wall supposed to be?? :P

the atmosphere and shading are great, which is obviously what you set out to do. the structure of the castle is a bit odd, looks like plasicine, but i'm guessing pretty hard not to using brushes so i'll let you off :)

the squares are just ornamentation, I was going to put a symbol in there, but never got around to it. It became clear this was not going to be a first rate piece so I reserved that kind of effort for later since this was a practice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As to the structures, I could have blended the turrets more, cleaned em up etc. but will do that next time.
