I think overall my castle went pretty ok considering I didnt know much of 3ds max. I knew a little because Ive done particle renderings using different renderers like Krakatoa (images on my blog). But since we started using 3DS Max I think Ive learnt a lot more about the program. I did kind of feel that we didnt know enough about how to do certain things while making are castle because It felt like it was a struggle and a pain at times to do just basic things. I found putting textures on are models particularly difficult at times because there seemed to be extra verts in places and textures would come out stretched, this was so, so, frustrating.
I  think if we had more knowledge or practice with the techniques we had to use we would've been able to produce a much better castle, but, it is for most of us the first time we've used the program and I am happy with the end result. I think in future once we've learned a bit more we will be able to produce better quality models.

Things I would of done differently:
I think if I  knew more about the program I would've tried to add a lot more detail into things like my towers, keep, and gatehouse. For example giving it little windows and small details. But then again I'm really pleased with what I achieved with my castle. I wouldn't of been able to do this 3 months ago.

I'm really happy with the way my castle turned out and I'm looking forward to the things we will be able to create in the future.

Screenshots

 Here I'm using the UVW unwrap to find all of my sides which then I can apply a texture to. 

Here is the image I used to create my mountains, which was doen in photoshop. The whiter parts are the higher the mountains will be.

Here is a screenshot of my finished castle with the environment.
