Magnotus Castle

This project is currently on hold for an undetermined amount of time as I am working on a new project; besides, it didn't seem that popular.

Story
:
Magnotus was once a thriving city, perched on top of it's hill. It was built in the 3rd Era, when lord Jensius Bergenstenius came to power, and had as purpose to defend the Southern-most Minecraftia border. It has been through few yet large battles, and has withstood them all. Over the years, it's occupants moved out into the land, to begin new settlements. It has since become a popular tourist location for any visiting Minecraftians. Yet, it is still in the middle of extremely large renovations.

Goal:
- Build a large castle perched ontop a hill, and fill it to the brim with activities and fancy architecture.
- Get people to know about it
- ???
-¨Profit.

General Description:
Magnotus has always been a symbol to me and my friends, as our empire (more mine, seeing as I do all the building and, well, everything.) I started building a few days ago, and it's more of a test of my skills than anything else.
I mostly want to make something that pleases the eye and is 'fun' to walk about in. I may even transform it into an adventure map if I get the time once I finish.
I'm building it alone, and I prefer to keep it that way.
It's mostly inspired by castles that we have over here in Southern France, but I'm also inspiring myself with Skyrim and Game of Thrones. I'll also, from time to time, take a look at other builds' architecture to try and take off of them.
I'm guessing I'll be done in a month or two, depending on my free time and my school schedule; but I know I will not abandon this project like I have so many others.

Feedback:
I would really enjoy some feedback, and if you have any suggestions or thoughts, please post them in the comments. Also, not to be too selfish, I wouldn't mind some diamonds to get myself known. ^^

P.S.:
I'm back, after a long break, and thus I added that mansion and expanded onto the road. I'm still kind of busy at the moment, so only two pictures were added, and I haven't updated the others.

Thanks, I'm going to try to do something similar on the other side. I think I may just wall off that park somehow and not make that bridge an actual entrance.

I'm glad to hear that. ^^
I've been taking a break from the construction to actually play a few games, and I should come back to this in a day or so.

I'm trying to slowly get back to working on it; I had a change in PCs and couldn't manage to find the world file for a while.
