I am planning on making a 3D model of hogwarts, and was wondering if people could help me collect reference images to work from.
I have already found a few links, i have the films and the books as well.
Post any links here.
Thanks,
Blade

Hi Blade,
If you mean the Harry Potter world, be VERY careful here. the author has shown that she is extremely protective of her intellectual properties, and has a penchant for littigation. She took some kid to court for putting together some catalogue of the world and monsters and such...
Sorry, no links.

Actually it was the publisher who took someone to court, he had a book printed and was making a lot of money from it, they were right to take court action for such flagrant breach of copyright.
Making a 3d model of hogwarts would not break copyright as it is a real building used.

Yes, jigalypuff is correct, the castle is a real building , and this is merely to gain modelling experience, not for commercial use.
But very had to find detailed references, e.g. each floor, and all the layouts, will have to make some of it up.
