While I was initially shooting for a castle, space limitations constrained me to more of a fort. I did my best to keep the natural valley walls and build within it, opposed to completely levelling everything. The castle still needs landscaping in the courtyard and various detailing.

| North daytime shot. |

| South night shot. |
In both the panoramic shots, you'll notice the lack of approach to the gate. I plan on adding a moat on one side, a ramp on the other and gates to both.

| Unlandscaped courtyard from wall. |
In the courtyard, I'm planning on putting in a small pond, flowers, trees, pathways and a portal.
 |
| Partially built, walls up, but no towers. |

| Quick draft. |
I did a really quick draft because drafting the temple helped me immensely. Sadly, I tried to skip out on a front or side angle and wound up screwing up my draft a fair bit. In the draft, the walls were only supposed to be three tiles thick with crenellations sticking out an extra tile on either side. In the final castle, I accidently built the walls five tiles thick and an extra tile for the crenellations. Being lazy didn't pay off this time around.
