Just starting this off with a simple plan view of the castle. I'll make updates as I go...

William? Could you do a little bit more detailed sketch of the garden area between the gate and the castle main entrance?

I suck at landscaping/gardening design. unsure.gif

Jody,
I have marked-up your screencapture.
Gold is paved paths
Blue is water (notice fountain locations)
Dark green is trees and bushes

I have indicated wooded areas beyond. this we will probably do with particle trees.
Notice a run-off stream from the moat that formes a waterfall into the lake--that will be a nice misty rainbow!

Don't forget the garden is made of tin:

QUOTE
Woot the Wanderer slept that night in the tin castle of the Emperor of the Winkies and found his tin bed quite comfortable. Early the next morning he rose and took a walk through the gardens, where there were tin fountains and beds of curious tin flowers, and where tin birds perched upon the branches of tin trees and sang songs that sounded like the notes of tin whistles. All these wonders had been made by the clever Winkie tinsmiths, who wound the birds up every morning so that they would move about and sing.

William,

Thanks for the quick response! That will help me greatly.

Ken,

You are silly... biggrin.gif

Okay, I have more done on the Garden. Just simple yellow brick road paths... and I've isolated the Garden area from the rest of the hill model.

Here is the Castle with the garden included... and without the hill.

Ken, I'm confused... is the winki tinsmith the same one who rebuilt the Tin Woodman? If so, why do they later travel a great distance to see him if he winds the birds up every morning?

New garden section is up on SVN

No it's a different person (we'll probably use the servant to do the winding)...all the Winkies are master tinsmiths. Tinman being their King has a garden made of tin. (At least that's what I think I remember)
