So, this project consists of a realistic recreation of old mills. The first two being windmills and the final two watermills. Hope you like it! It was a challenging project given the crowded interiors and some complex shapes.

Este projeto consiste numa recreação de moinhos antigos, sendo os dois primeiros eólicos e os dois finais hidráulicos. Espero que gostem! Foi um projeto desafiante dado o pouco espaço interior e as formas complexas.
The mills:

-Full interiors and as acurate as I could make them.

1- Typical Dutch style windmill.
2- Mediterranean style windmill with its intricated sail design, also the one most found in Portugal.
3- Victorian Era, more modern and mecanised watermill.
4- Small rural turbine watermill, the more common type found in Portugal.

Note: This mills are not based on a specific real life mill, insted they are the result of both working shemes research, operation videos and images from real ones. Nevertheless I think I did a good job creating them as close to reality as they are.

So here it is, the final two mills are done. In the future I might do some lumbermills and olive oil mills to complement this project. What do you think?

Looks good with the block palette & detailing.
Interior wise - nice to see! - I wonder though what the purposes are. Paper making, grinding down seeds and such. Cutting wood?

Thanks! On this project I'm focusing on flour mills, though I also have in mind for a future work lumber mills and olive mils. About this ones, there are the mill stones, which have some sort of chute and container on top that lets the grain fall and the more complex one includes an elevator for the flour which is left to dry on the top floor as it goes on a spiral to fall on the edge onto bags that rest on the ground floor.
