For Storminator: The Bardic College
This was quite challenging. I don't think I managed to capture the "organic" feel I was striving for. CAD can be very limited when you try to create curvy, sinuous objects. It was fun though, and I learned a few things about extruding splines (which sounds dirty, but isn't) and had some more fun with boolean functions. I think the best part about doing these architecture projects is that I am getting a much stronger grasp of working in 3D.
Anyway. Bardic College black and white

Knid! That's awesome!
Very cool. Hey, can you do it with the background buildings half size?
Thanks a bunch!

Whoa... now that bardic college is way phat. Certainly a centerpiece of the city, I would think.
Just one little thing about the floor plans. The bottom floors seem to have a lot more wide open spaces than the upper floors. That leaves me wondering about the support for the upper floors. This is of course, fantasy, so I will quickly accept "That's Magic!" as reasonable, and I would have to say that the feat itself would be visually striking on the ground floor.

To Kilmore: Yeah, I doubt these buildings are structurally sound. I'm not an architect or an engineer so I guess I haven't paid much attention. I usually keep all the walls at the same thickness, although in real life they would be different thicknesses and probably thicker than I have them. More of a graphic thing for me I guess. Plus as KidCharlemagne has pointed out, these buildings are much more massive than real medieval buildings. So, uh...yeah it's magic.
For Storminator: Did a few more pics of the College. Scaled the city buildings to half size.
