Castle Exterior

@MassiveEdu and @JollyGameCrazy at least tell them how they can improve. :flushed:

Anyway, I think the castle wall could use a moat, supports for the second floor, and some lit fire to provide light.

Yea they really did. But just to be honest, @MassiveEdu was rude to @Tixolate and should apologise

It’s quite basic, but nice! Try adding more detail and using some lighting.

Don’t listen to the negative comments. Every builder has to start somewhere!

It’s an amazing start! Try adding stuff like lanterns and details like cracks (just a few parts welded) in the wall. Great start! Or add like a carriage by the entrance or maybe guards outside!

Hey @Tixolate
Castle looks pretty good, but bland! Here are a few recommendations!

  1. Give the exterior some more detail, detailed windows, textures, etc
  2. Make the terrain around it better, right now the ground kind of sticks up and the surroundings, are well, empty
  3. Add some more decor around, like flags, bushes around the castle, and more!

Once you do this, it’ll be looking really good in no time!
I don’t really get what @MassiveEdu is trying to say… improvement is a thing you know? OP got the basics of the castle down, now they just need to add details and refine the whole thing!

what i was saying is that spending 3 hours on that was a waste of time and it should’ve only taken him 40 minutes the most

What? Don’t judge people by the time it takes them, judge it by the quality of the result.

Not everyone is made the same. Just because the castle took OP 3 hours and still needs some work doesn’t mean you have the right to call it a “Waste of Time”.

OP got out of it

  1. Building practice
  2. Feedback in improvement
  3. Overall fun experience

I mean I guess if you don’t think any of those things are useful, then you could call it a waste of time…

If you think it would have taken you 40 minutes to make this does not mean everybody should take 40 minutes to make it. It’s the same thing as telling a beginner builder that their builds are worth nothing and should have taken lesser time just because they are new and took a longer time to do the project than an experienced builder does.

Looks like a good start! You do a lot more than I can in 3 hours. I’d love to see more of it!

You could add some constructive criticism to help… :sweat_smile:

Thanks for all the amazing feedback once again!
I will be remaking the castle again when I feel like it while using a reference, this should increase my details as much as possible.

Looks a bit plain, perhaps you could add some different textures and details (flags, torches, flowers wooden poles) and give it a bit more life.

Also add supports for the 2nd floor balcony. I’ve never seen something that is so thin yet strong enough to hold bricks and people standing on it. You could also add rooms/windows in the cones, because now it looks a bit like you just slapped a cone on there. (No offense just feedback :slight_smile:)

This is an amazing idea, I wouldn’t have thought about that because I have a peanut sized brain anyways thanks for the idea again!

Some people are new to building, instead of being rude and putting them off from building give them tips on how to improve, people like you are why some devs quit

Looks awesome so far! My only suggestions are to add more decor, as others have suggested! Support beams, and other items like that would be beneficial for this build I believe, by framing the walls with support beams, or the towers as well you can really make the castle pop!
Amazing build, look forward to seeing more!

Sorry I’m late to the show, I was waiting for posting privileges when I first read this. I like this castle!
What will really make this castle shine is if you do the following:

  1. Castles rule over the kindgom. Put it in a much larger setting. Add landscape.
  2. Castles are first and foremost the political capital of the kingdom. Add banners and flags everywhere.
  3. It would be a shame to have a castle that no one could walk around. Open it up, add stairs and carpet and a throne room.
  4. Castles have lots of staff. Add guards on the parapets and at the front gate.

I really love how it looks so far! I think with just some smaller details and some different stuff maybe to add some detail it could look even better!
