Thanks for the nice comments :D
Some of you were asking if this was default, the answer to that is yes. Default bricks and default colorset were used. Why? Because I found out that my BL runs much smoother with no addons enabled :P
I did not use any plans in making this. When I started, I didn't quite know how I wanted it to be, so I googled a few pictures. Once I got a basic understanding of how it was supposed to look, the ideas came from my imagination. As a consequence of that, the castle is kinda devided into different sections. I just made it up as I went along.
However, the final result looks kinda like something you could expect to find in real life.
Amazing work, as always. However, some architectural points for you to note:
underneath the overhangs for the upper balustrades should be arches or lateral supports, as noted here in the Tattershall Castle picture.
it would add just a bit more realism to the build.
Also you might want to consider randomnizing the coloring scheme of the bricks a bit. One flat color makes it somewhat hard to see the differences between the windows and the walls.
As for name, I suggest Ferdinand de Regia
Would you mind explaining what part you mean? My medieval glossary isn't the best, and I didn't find anything that made sense with google.
I agree with you. But because I built everything with brick conservation in mind, I have alot of big bricks that would look odd if colored darker. So I have to strategically remove large bricks and add smaller, differently colored bricks without hurting the brickcount to much. I might do that after the interior is done.
Where does the name come from? And why Ferdinand?
