Project Update...Castle

So i have been working on creating a castle for my girls and their little dolls.
I downloaded a program called Google SketchUp and created a castle in 3D to what i though the castle should look like. Then i printed pics of the castle and wrote down all my numbers of the sizes i need in the wood. Next i got 1/2 birch plywood and cut out all the walls and towers of the castle. I used the scroll saw to cut windows, doors, and the tops of walls. Last night the girls and i painted a primer on the castle, it was a fun mess that we made but it is all painted white now ready for the pink and purple. Take a look at the pics in progress.
