Jillian Broyles: Week One Castle

 Ghosted Castle View

 Bird's Eye Castle View

Pedestrian Castle View

My castle was inspired by not only space itself, but specifically UFO's. I looked at many modern castle structures and also cited UFO structures to bring together different ideas for this project. I created my project around the center rectangular base and then went outwards. I created four other boxes that you are able to walk into and by using four posts on the bottom of each giving it a fiery spaceship affect. The middle rises into a tower to create a space that you are able to walk up and view without falling off the tubular structure. I used a simple model for my castle because of the simple structures of UFO's and also wanting to make it very spaceship like.

I used CrvBoolean, BooleanUnion, ExtrudeCrv, ArrayPolar, Copy, Mirror, and many simple techniques. Also I cut out different ways for people to move around in the space and make the space more functionable.

I chose the material Turned Steel to give it a space and UFO affect. I enjoy the shadows the background castes back onto the steel. I used solely this because I wanted the structure to look unified and as if had just landed on a planet such as Mars.
