Hi DAZ community. Here is a preview of my next two sets. The first is a castle tower inspired by Hurst Castle, England.

    Wow. These both look amazing. Very different, but equally gorgeous. I'm going to have to ration myself the rest of this month. :)

    These are both amazing. I want them both but they'll probably kill my computer.

    Just wanted to say something to that extent ... my little MacBook ... though it got 8GB, so it should be fine really ... hopefully ;)

    Amazing detail on both products and I will probably get both as I see it. Everything in these scenes fits - colors / textures, arrangements / layout, accuracy / little details, lights. Looking forward to these sets and my MacBook just has to deal with it :)

    Love the caste, suit my renders perfectly, just add some possessed aristocrats, some evil Nazis and where good!
    The lounge looks great, inspired me to write an adventure for James Bond again.

    If my memory serves me right, I have been to that castle!
    Love the lounge, it really has a fresh look.

    It's a fascinating Castle, and very unique in it's setting. Would be quite difficult to duplicate the whole place I would think.

    Model looks really good.

    Oh man, the big question is when of course? I could so use that lounge for a render for a friend. =-)

    Thanks alot! These renders range 7-18 minutes on my i7 2.8ghz processor. I keep my render settings shadow samples low at 12. The castle turret bottleneck is in the ambient occlusion materials and point light shadows. There is a set of fallback simple materials that do not use ambient occlusion included. Turn on soft shadows (ao) in the uberEnviroment light, turn off any extra point lights, and use the simpler mats and the render times are a lot faster.

    The Night Lounge uses simple materials (no ao) and renders smoothly until it hits the shot glasses hanging from the rack above the bar counter. There is a lot of layers of transparency in that area so it takes forever to render. All the other wine bottles are opaque but reflective so they are pretty fast.

    These will be for DAZ 4.6 and above, so sorry to any Poser users. Release date I am not sure but hopefully in the next month.

    These might well be insta-buys. Your products are top-notch.

    Very nice castle set — I have a bunch of medieval furniture that would fit right in, all I need to complete the scene is some suitable wall and floor coverings.

    Yes they can swivel as well as be raised and lowered.

    Those are amazing looking!

    At first I read the topic as one item, as if the turret itself had been made into a night club. lol

    That castle turret is exactly what I've been looking for. Insta-buy when it hits the store. Amazing work.

    These look great, but unfortunately, I won't be able to get them as I only use DS 3 Advanced, DS 4.0 Pro, Poser 9 or Bryce 7.1.

    You should do well though, they both are really nicely detailed.

    Very nice work. I'll make a note to look at these later. Once my bank account is taken off the IV.

    Both sets look beautiful. I like the Castle Turret very much... Will you include Poser files? Just a question of course...
