Well, if I need to draw something hard, I will search on Google images for a reference. (Such as with the car in the latest DiT)

I'd say that's a darn good suggestion. Even trace pictures of castles a few times if you have to. Doodle castles wherever youse have room. Seriously, it helps. Even if they're dorky cartoon-castles ^^;.

www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_126.phpI ain't one to know, but perhaps a search online for a castle that looks similar to what you want. Most likely there will be some sort of similar rendition to your imagined castle. Or something close enough that you can sketch, practice, and manipulate.... Daggertooth

Or, once you've started practising other castles, eventually you'll be able to make 'em look unique... Put the towers where you want... And so on.

Yeah. I am not the authority on drawing castles (or any other things for that matter) but I think that if you put hard work into it, you'll be able to do it in no time! *nice guy pose*

I would say you would need to pratice.... alot!!!! but it's defintly better if you use a stright edge and try the make everything look very uniform with the same style so it look's like the same castle use lots of shadeing when it comes to the walls and add some windows in there too!!!! BIG Windows!!!!!...flags, crests and some banners...den with those pointy towers just make um round and add some shingles that are the same genral color of whatever you use for the crests n' stuff. don't make it look to cartoony and remember the walls don't have to be hugely tall you can make them like 20 feet or so ....and thats all iI have to say about that...

If you have a hard time drawing anything, it is best if you find the way that suits you the best. I like to sketch something and then use the sketch as my idea sheet and outline what I want on a new sheet.

You don't have to use that exact castle, but you can look at how most castles look, the usual proportions, certain details, different angles.. etc.
