Very impressive! I'm looking forward to see what you do next with this wonderful castle!
Fantastic !
I would estimate hat the visible parts of your castle have been built between 13th and 15th century
It really looks good and shows the evolution of defensive walls.
For the landscape, I don’t think you’ve lost. There is an option that just smooth the terrain you have built (sorry I don’t have the name in mind right now). If you search you’ll see that it looks OK
The draw bridge looks just fine and well defended, now I wonder where you will put the second door and how you plan to defend it. Between the two square towers ? If so, you might want to add some defense on the wall between those towers.
Keep up the good work ! It's just terrific !

Thank you all !
JO : Yes i've tried to smooth the landscape (adoucir les arêtes in French but when I do that it appears completly flat. Anyway I don't mind too much, I wiil redraw this or perhaps play with the style.
The second door is between the square towers. I added a bretèche to defend it.
Some arrowslits. the ones on the round towers are staggered on each floor for more shooting angles.
The entrance to the main dungeon is raised to avoid ram attacks, as I've seen in some castles.
I should have finish with sketchup this year I hope
My goodness! This is all very detailed and impressive
Landscape is not the easiest thing in Sketchup. I gave up doing the landscape for my City district in Sketchup when I realised how difficult it was. Yours is a lot better than mine, so I can only draw the conclusion that you are a lot better at it than I am

Excellet ! You've studied your subject ! Very well done !
Those roofs are amazing !
Thank you all !
I finally managed to get a smoother landscape, perhaps not the best but smoother. I don't think I will work more on it with Sketchup as my plan is to redraw all this with Artrage (I still have to find the good pen brush) and so I consider I am nearly finished with Sketchup on this (may be add some chimneys, a barbacane or other things you could see ?) For the same reason, colors here are just placeholders.
I redrew the bridge, added some doors between the courtines and finished the arrowslits (there are too many perhaps ?)
Now that I've spent some time with Sketchup, the little challenge is tempting me
Okay, I begun to draw the castle. I have to smooth the shadows on the round towers and work on the landscape. I don't know yet if I will draw each stone of the walls
As usual, criticise and comment
Oh this is starting to look really really nice
