Here are some renders of the full castle: Here are renders of details of the castle: Here is a basic description of how I made some of the more detailed pieces in the castle: - Roofed Towers: The roofed towers were made using the polygon tool and polyline for the details of the tower itself.

I then used boolean difference to carve three arched windows on the towers in the front of the castle. Between the roofed towers, I made copies of an arched hallway created using a polyline. - Gazebo: The gazebo was created using lots of polygon tools (specifically one with six sides
