None of you have seen the new castle! I havn't even uploaded it yet...but I'm getting ready to. Nexus...the music...original? It has to be Disney! So, I am using Disney movies that go with the theme of that land (EX: Fantasyland has songs from Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, etc.)
I just uploaded the castle...here is the link:

True, but many original scores have been developed throughout time for the Disney parks...
Oh and the castle looks a LOT better now... still needs improvement, but think it's on the right track.
1. The base structure IMO still needs more towers and doesn't really look wide enough (generally there are some problems with height/width, eg. the gate looks abnormally large considering the size of the rest of the castle).
2. The main building should perhaps be a little wider and located a little more in the middle.
3. Still need many more smaller towers, especially on the left side.
4. I think you should go with another design for the main tower, with more variation throughout (look at the Cinderella castle for inspiration as well as many european chapels).
And about the base, it looks really well, but expand to the sides, while increasing the size of the rest of the castle. That will get the proportions right I think.

As of now, the castle is 140 ft. wide at the base and 216 ft. tall from the base to the tip of the highest flag pole. If I would make side and back elevations I think you would see that the base is not too small. Also, the rest of the castle will fit together fine once you see sides and the back. I will start working on those here in a little bit.

Here is a side elevation: http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/david.wessel@sbcglobal.net/detail?.dir=/136b&.dnm=2167.jpg&.src=ph
The hub is on the right, Fantasyland on the left. I will start the back and other side elevations soon!

Finally...(drum roll)
THE BACK ELEVATION! lol. Technically, I should update the side elevations to include the additions...but that would be too much work! :lol: I may do that later.

Enjoy!

Okay...everybody keeps saying negative things about the castles (except KentB3)! What do you want?! What would make them better?
Telling me its nothing spectacular doesn't tell me anything to change or add or take away! If you want something changed...tell me (and I may do it).
Space Mountain has an actual soundtrack that people would recongnize?

We are only basing this castle off of the Cinderella Castle in WDW and Tokyo! It's not near identical. I can't go in to TONS of detail with CAD anyways, I would have to have much more time than I do. The windows look plain and boring, but there would be shapes in them, not just curves and straight lines. they would look more like the windows at WDW. (Notice that the front has a huge set of those kind of windows and that the side has a small set also)

I don't know if someone has corrected the problem that I see here or not yet. Well, Tom Sawyer whatsoever does NOT fit in Adventureland. This cannot happen...Tom Sawyer was written by Mark Twain and was set in the mid-west (Missouri I believe). Adventureland and Tom Sawyer do NOT go together at all!
Just thought this needed to be fixed.
I'm doing some quick writing from my vacation!
ImaginEAR --> Your comments are much appreciated
About Timekeeper and AE, I feel the same way. Remember much of this list is old and much of it was just fill for now. Many things should be changed..
And about the cloned shops/restaurants, I'm against too, but for now I just borrowed the names, I did imagine something else. I'm not always good with names
And too many shops? Perhaps... we'll look into that later!
Wannabe Walt --> Look at a drawing KentB3 had done of a castle. I mean, it had many more smaller towers and complexity. Besides, I still don't like the space between the main building and the towers. The towers should rise out of the large main building (that should decrease in width when getting higher... if you know what I mean? Like several layers, each times decreasing in width)...
That's all for now and good job on Once Upon a Time (maybe you should cut some of the tracks though... a bit too many in some areas perhaps)...
