      I've been building lots of castle-type homes with SU for years now, been my primary hobby with this software. 80% wind up in the bin, and the remaining 20% never really get finished, I always wind up dissatisfied with how they turn out looking. I figure it's time someone else sees these and has a chuckle, and if I'm lucky, gives some pointers. Well, here's the most recent iteration.

        How fun! I always thought it would be cool to try something like this but never had the time to try it. There is a field stone tudor I pass by everyday on my way to work that has a very similiar feel to your model. It would be the type of home I would enjoy living in.

        Cheers

          I think your castle looks great, but I understand what you are saying about the 80% in the bin, believe me i bin closer to 90& but the fun is in the one or two which are just good enough to escape the dreaded bin. Remember always if you get it perfect. you're done nothing left to strive for, so enjoy the journey and good luck......ps keep on posting the "almost" winner

                  Cool looking model, Jeff. Are you going to texture it?

                    I'm not very good at texturing, but I did throw some color on it just for fun. Still some details missing, mostly in the landscaping at this point, but I figure this one's gone as far as I'm going to take it. Here's what I came up with:
