My Castle Project








I have learned many things from 3d Max, its taught me how look to at objects in different ways, made me look at all views instead of what looks the best or what angle looks the best. I have to figure out every angle and every view to make sure something looks good.
My biggest challenge in 3d Max has been messing with the modifiers so i can create different objects and it hasnt worked out for me yet.
If i did my castle model over again i would most likely make it bigger, put a moat around it, make some hills, make it look like i grabbed it out of a europe and stuck it in 3d max.
My research sketch waws helpful in a way that it gave me a general idea of what i wanted tto do with my castle instead of just going in and free-handing it. It also helped me think of new designs so i could make my castle better and more detailed.

My first IMD designs

A simple fence, lots of copying.



These stairs are a copy of the bottom, if you can tell which side is the bottom.




A box, easy



This weight is evil, that is all
