Marc Fleischmann - Week 1: Castle

When I started designing this castle I didn't have an exact idea what it should look like in the end. It was rather important to me to get used to the Rhino tools and commands we have learned so far and to get to know some more that could enhance my castle. The first thing I started with were the four towers in the corners. Basically I started with two mirrored cones and kept on adding ans subtracting shapes that I created by using mainly the primitive shapes and boolean commands. Finally their design reminded me a little of towers out of a fantasy movie, like The Lord of the Rings. I tried to keep on building in this style and added some rather futuristic details like the arches, where I tried to use the loft-tool.
