The brushwork looks good but the lighting is awful.

Looking at the screenshots, it all seem a little too angular and 'complete'. Most castles that are still standing today are nowhere near as structurally sound as yours ;) Also, castles of the type you have attempted to depict were very rarely built to exact blueprints, instead having bits and pieces added as and where convenient. Vary the heights of walls a bit and bring it to life.

The lighting is wrong, it looks much darker in game, and when I took the screenshots they were too dark. So I brightened them in photoshop, but now on another computer I am on they are too bright.
