How do you build a castle for a school project?

Answer 1

There are many types of materials that can be used, you must consider how stable you want it to be, will it be handled, played with, or for display purposes. Materials you could use: plaster, polymer or model clay, styrofoam, etc., styrofoam would be the cheapest to build with, using knives (including electric kitchen knives) wood rasps, course sandpaper. You can even combine many materials together. First get a pictire of a Castle, get several sheets of styrofoam, also some round and cone shaped styrofoam, modeling or polymer clay, Elmers glue. Assemble the styrofoam walls, buildings, towers, (the cones are for the spire's on the towers) once the basic Castle is formed and built, now you can flatten the clay to about 1/8" thick and cut many, many small squares to press on the styrofoam to make them look like stone blocks, for the spires, make them look like shale, (a stone roof) Once done allow clay to dry completely, then you can paint, (water based paint only) Use a small stencil brush to dab and blend colors for a aged look. This method will give you the most realistic looking Castle when your done.

Answer 2

I have to do a project and I am making mine out of gray foam board. I am using dark gray or black paint to draw on lines for stones. Also, a sponge dipped in green paint can make moss to make it look old. I somebody though I cant see how.

My friend is thinking of making hers out of chocolate and icing as glue.
