Progression Screenshots - Windmill Structure

A closer shot of the Wind mill from a better angle. We have started too apply a little bit of texture for trials purposes. I will get screen shots of the completed wind mill, textured fully, when we have rendered out all the scenes.
The windmill as it currently looks, we have added loads more rooms, floors, roofs and general clutter. I think we are achieving our idea of a Howl's Moving Castle / Steam Punk themed windmill now. We have yet too texture it in this picture and the lightening is currently being worked out. For the lighting we are thinking about having the front of the mill facing the sun rise, this will cast a long shadow behind the light house and will make for a good camera shot.

We want too light the front of the mill as the most detail is there and we don't want too high it all in shadows. Around the back of the windmill is less detail and not as much going on, so using the shadow there won't detract much from the shot. I will talk a bit more about lighting and show examples in my next post.
Coal and Bucket, once more just more clutter, as the windmill is meant too have a coal burner this was the most needed kinda of clutter.

An outhouse, added and made for more on screen clutter.

The roof tiles, used for the roofing on all the outside 'rooms' that have been built on to the side of the windmill.

Steel chimney, used for a extra prop too add the clutter effect we want for our wind mill.
The sails added too the mill prop. These were a bit tricky too model, due too wanting too match the ref pictures I posted in the pervious post. I feel the outcome was quiet close and I am happy with them.

Sign and door are made, the door way into the mill is also placed and shaped roughly.

The front section of the Wind Mill, shaping the front door in.
