Ailsa Petrie: Week 1 Castle

 Ghosted
 Pedestrian
Bird's Eye

My inspiration for this project was Zelda's floating castle from Super Smash Bros paired with the typical crenelated medieval castle design. 

For my castle I extruded rectangles, cylinders, cones and circles. I made the crenelated walls of the castle by using the BooleanDifference command, as well as for the entryway. Around the windows I filleted the edges in order to make the flat edges less harsh.

I chose to use stone as a material for my castle because I wanted the castle to remain very recognizable and typical, in contrast with the abstract, bulbous surface that it is supported by. This surface is shiny and green to express some type of mysterious, imaginary land. I hoped that my castle would incorporate the realistic and magical, and I feel that I achieved this well.
