The Quest to Not Suck!

[Proton]

Hello! This is where I will post my builds, and hopefully, over time, not suck!

This castle is my largest and probably best creation I have built. It has all of the different crafting stations inside, and living space for all NPC's, including the Truffle. There are teleporters scattered around so that NPC's will be able to move to other floors. The first room has 3 different teleporters hooked up to the Underworld, Jungle, and Dungeon. Also, everything is technically completely legit, however I built it using extremely cheap materials and the combined items of all three of my previous play throughs.

Spoiler: Completed

Spoiler: Progress Updates

First is my main base in my new world dubbed Unity. I decided to start with a teleporter design since it's all in the sky, then made an outline out of dirt (sorry no picture). I then thickened everything and ended up filling up the first room, the teleporter hub.

This is the base I created for my play through of 1.3. The idea is it was a giant magical tree that my character, Artemis, built a village inside.

Spoiler: Magical Tree

This is my very first base from my very first play through in 1.2.4. It's not great but I thought I would add it anyway. It was created by the character in my profile picture, Logan, to be a floating colony.

Spoiler: Floating Colony

Finally my base from my ranger play through. My character Jack built giant rockets to carry pieces of Earth into the sky to be safe from invasion. He was a little paranoid.

Spoiler: Rocket Islands

Get ready for more updates as I build it.

Today I added walls to most of the rooms and added windows to a few too. There are now Dynasty Wood supports to keep everything from falling apart. I've been thinking about changing the materials the towers are made of, so I left it empty for now.

Spoiler: Added Walls

I can't see the images

I would remove the old image spoilers and put your new links as .pngs which should look like

. I do really like the castle i.imgur.com/4U9yX9d.png you have made though, however the towers look a little too angular and a little disproportioned, perhaps try making them have thicker towers or smaller rooftops? It looks great as a start though, you do NOT want to see what my first creations were like, and even now I can't make anything of much worth! Best of luck with building that big base.
EDIT: Oops, that HTML's just a link. When you upload there should be an option for code for direct images on message boards and forums. Try that if you can. It's BBCode e.g

Thanks for the advice. The pictures should hopefully work now...Hopefully.

I added all the windows today. It is a much smaller update but I thought I should add it.

Spoiler: Castle With Windows

Lack of updates due to being kidnapped by ninjas. I have now fought my way through and have furnished the castle to the point all but the wizard and truffle have moved in. They will live in the towers. There is still a lot more decorating to be done though.

Spoiler: No more ninjas = :)

The storage room has been completed! Thanks to @thynes01 for supplying the iron to make the chests!

I took Alabaster's advice and came up with a new design for the towers to make them seem less top heavy. Once they are all finished, this castle will be essentially done.

You can really see the improvement between your builds, nice work

 

[Proton]

Both towers have been competed and I can honestly say these are probably my favorite thing I have built in Terraria. The wizard lives in the first, and truffle in the second. The idea behind the second one is that muchooms are eating away a the tower.

Well, after completing the towers and making a few finishing touches. It. Is. Done! Since the last full castle update, I have added more decorations, and hav moved in all of the NPC's. I also added teleporters scattered around so that the NPC's are able to move around the castle. The long range teleporters in the first room are now all wired up to three others around the world. (Great thanks to The Grand Design) Now I can finally rest easy.
