spectacular! they're amazing in plain grey textures i fear how terrific will it be with the right textures.

This is the Kitchen block (Swelter's domian), build time another 45 mins. yes textures are going to be a lot of fun.

I cheated on my metaphysics exam by looking into the soul of the person next to me.

i know where your coming from Dann, i am already fearful of render time, i may do something i dont normally do and render in layers. (usually its all one pass, out of the box). Hope to have some Bryce texture renders up this weekend. Modelling in my App of choice (not wngs) . .. and heres some more modelling

OMG Gormangast!!!!!!!! Tried to read the book once..THAT did my head in. Luckily, the BBC made a drama out of it. What are you using for referance? Great modelling so far!

Available on Amazon for the Kindle E-Reader

All the Woes of a World by Jonathan Icknield aka The Bryster

And in my final hours - I would cling rather to the tattooed hand of kindness - than the unblemished hand of hate...

I seem to remember it being a trilogy, with someone named Titus groaning or something..;) been a good number of years, never got around to reading it.

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit

anahl nathrak uth vas betude doth yel dyenvey..;)

I did manage to read the first book, and i saw an excellent animation on channel 4 many years ago, but mostly the refrerance comes from...'inside my mind'...Mwahahahahaah. just wanted to avoid any cliches and things that may have been done before. Also hoping to do some interiors, the first will be the room with the painted tree roots. . . oh and mwahahahahaaha again.

Wonderful modeling but still didnt get what your modeling in?.......mind you, whatever it is, its working!! well done so far

Smile, your dead a long time :)

Great looking stuff! Sometimes the imagination is the best blueprint.

that looks a bit like silo to me, i downloaded the demo but am having a hard time figuring it out to my satisfaction, can anyone point me towards any decent tuts?

I managed to read all the three boks of the trilogy - and I never would have even dared to think about a realisation of this castle in 3d. Very ambitious project you choose here, I'm impressed! You remember the gigantic tree Steerpike climbed up to reach the chamber of the two old ladies? ;) In all cases I'm now eager to see how you will go on, keep up the good work!
