I've had an idea for a Laputa/Skies of Arcadia style floating castle scene.

I want the castle to be inspired by (but not be a direct copy of) the Portuguese royal palace at Sintra: a castle built in the late 19th century in the romantic-nationalist style.

The Pink bit on the right is the bit that interests me.

Also I've wanted to model the Palladian bridge at Stowe for a while now and it sorta fits into the scene

The Bridge is apparently a copy of a bridge from somewhere in Italy and the 'river' it crosses was dug out by hand.

This is what I have so far. The first image is flat shaded, which is how I will present the final scene: fiffuse maps only, shadows painted on etc.

Some partially Zbrushed rocks

This image shows the re-topologised rocks, but without smoothing groups

Any thoughts/crits etc?
