    Awesome video. This model has an incredible amount of detail inside and out. You have done a fabulous amount of work and are extremely generous to be giving it to us for free. Thank you for all your hard work (stray balconies and all)!

    Really great work there Casual. Now for one question... do the doors open?

    all of them will, it will be a prop

    one issue is that each door/window comes with its own surface-material, and this will clutter Daz Studio surfaces tab a bit

    but but, maybe i'll make it be a figure ... which would make it 1 material set for all the doors

    or do clever morph tricks ... or make versions or something

    -------------

    here you can see the new doorsier ( or more door-alike) doors for the main entrances

    well . . . following a vague request i will include an optional staircase prop

    and the castle wont be ready today

    ... i guess before Wednesday is the new ETA

    -----------------

    the stairs prop sjown below is 7K,
    most of it is in the "real" wrought iron elements

    ----

    by "real i mean it's not a transparency/cutout , each twirly element is a 3-sided ribbon, so it looks good from any camera angle

    Nice. It helps to polish the inside nicely unless of course we are supposed to levitate to the next floor! lmao Are there elevators in the castle?

    i t seems to

    making realistic stairs would be too polygonally expensive
    but i will try to make mine a bit better

    WOW, that really reveals the stairs nicely and shows that the wall decor might have to be moved up a bit more from the above screen shots

    Blender Cycles render ( sad that indoor renders are soooooo slow )

    so we're nearing the end of modeling and the packaging phase !

    the scale of the stairs and ramp seem ok

    plus a Daz Studio 3Delight software render for a change

    ( someday ... someday i'll make the much needed thigh-top-de-flatenizer morph or script for Aiko )
