The Western Castle of Age of Empires 2 is one of the most loved buildings in the history of video-games. This is the typical Castle of Britons, Celts, Franks and Spanish.

I modeled this design from zero by Fusion 360. I was insipired by the original design of the castle in game but i added some detail to make it more realsitic. In addition, I personally invented the back and the right side that cannot be seen in the game.

Take note: This model was designed to be a 3d print, so the texture are not included . Also the support are not included .

I included alternative type of the model (complete, without drawbridge, with a closed door etc.) so, if you want the Castle in a small scale, you can print the smallest pieces separately and then you can glue them together.

You can also make them in a more creative way: as example, I made the door from an ice cream stick (but balsa or cardboard are fine too), the beams from two matches, then I added two small chains that are easy to find in any model shop.

However, I always recommend printing the drawbridge apart from the castle .

I printed the Castle with my Elegoo Mars and sliced with Chitubox.

My print setting are: - Layer height 0.05 mm; - Bottom layer count 5 seconds; - Exposure time 7 seconds; - bottom exposure time 60 seconds.

The pedestal is not included in the project (but in reality he does not need it, it still stands alone) . What you can see in the preview is the raft that i left together with the print. Then i paint the Castle and added the static grass to the terrain.

I hope you enjoy it and remember … keep your castle away from bombards, rams and trebuchet :)
