Final Project - The Arrakul

So this is my final project for one of my 3D classes this semester. That castle is actually the lair of the vampires featured in the early chapters of my novel, The Dark. They call it the Arrakul, hence the title.

I know it's not perfect, I don't consider myself very good at 3D stuff by any means. In fact, I hated this before I turned it in, but the teacher liked it, so I'm slightly more happy with it. I apologize for the quality. And I didn't notice that extra shadow on the ocean until like, just now.

By the way, nothing like this will actually happen in the novel, but this is for a Texturing and Lighting class and I thought it would be a cool effect. Also, if you're not on a Mac, the colors and saturation might look weird, sorry.
