Please don't mind our snowflakes, S.C.i.P. along. (Snow Castle in Progress)

Still somewhat new at actually building (darn Minecraft's many distractions, lol). Let me know what you think.
 
I did say S.C.i.P along. I didn't realize until after I posted that this should be in the follow my build section. If someone would like to move it I don't mind. Anyways, until then, Walls are up. :P

Just finished the base of the turrets, at least I think that's what they are going to be. I'm going to be working more on the design of the castle a little later. For right now, I just want to get the basic stuff in.

I just asked him, so that's all done. Thank you for letting me know who to ask. I'm still fairly new, so I get confused to as to who is who around here. EDIT: Apparently, I did post to the right one. Just like me to try to fix a mistake that wasn't even a mistake. lol

I've added a little bit since last time. I'm starting on the floors and walls on the inside. With snow walls I just feel cold all the time, plus I wanted an actual castle, so I went with Stone walls instead. Don't mind the giant spontaneous forest. It shall disappear shortly. *starts sharpening an axe*

Sorry for not updating too much, between schoolwork and getting Fable 3 I've been very busy. I have also been working on something that I've shown a few of you. Now I think I have gotten far enough along to actually post something. I'm going to be dropping this all the way to the top bedrock level. After that, I will be leveling off the floor. I have dug about 12 levels so far and have about 45 or so to go. No TNT is being used in making this.

Current screenshots look cool. I look forward to seeing this once its completed.
Keep up the good work!
 
Thank you very much. It's still getting planned as I'm mining it out, but from what I have in mind I think everyone will be able to enjoy it... :)
 
So I have decided thanks to KKing1 that I hated my walls and couldn't stand looking at them anymore. I took them down and currently I am redesigning them to be less "uniform". I hate boring straight lines. I don't know what I was thinking. Also, I had to drop my whole floor because I built it above ground level and I wanted it at ground level. I realized this after my walls were up, so yay fun! Anyways, I plan on putting an AFK spot on my land for all the mods suited to just them. It will be a while before I decide on anything, but here is a couple pics of KKing1's temporary AFK Hut in my basement. I started making this while waiting on him. This is what you get when you go AFK on me in my land. :p

Now for a more serious update. I finished the basic design of my outer walls and am putting those up right now. I'm using all smooth stone for the inside walls. Once that's done, I am going to put snow around the outside. I think I'm going to figure out the entrance next. It annoys me that I have to keep pw'ing around my own land every time I fall off the walls.

Now, now kking, it's not nice to say Godspeedz son's name in vain. :) By the way, Merry Christmas Kking1.
 
I haven't really had much of a chance to get on the past couple weeks with Christmas and all, but I do plan on working on my castle more again soon. I have not abandoned my property, I promise. Between figuring out designs for this and my Build claim, just building has been hard to do. Anyways, I'll update this again sometime soon.
