The images here depict a textured stone-like marble castle with aspects inspired by Indian palaces. In particular, the Mehrangarh Fort in Jodhpur, India was studied as a reference for creating the stepped and rounded towers, as well as the castle entrance.

Using tape and small binder clips helped apply consistent pressure.  Building the llama allowed us to see areas that nee...
