I'm new to this LEGO castle building thing, but it has to be one of the coolest things I've seen done with LEGOs. I'm still stuck in Afghanistan for a few more months, so all i have to work with is the LDD. this is the first tower i managed to create after several attempts. It will either be used in a design by it self as a keep or watch tower, or as a corner bastion. This is still a work in progress, so I'd really appreciate some constructive criticism on this thing.

Re: LDD first MOC
Wow, that really is fantastic. For an LDD model especially, considering I am god awful at them. I really like how it isn't just a flat wall; it's an intricate surface; a fortress of solitude, in which a man keeps his most valuable treasures, such as his fortress. "Are you suggesting that my fortress is INSIDE my fortress?" "No, I was merely suggesting--" " WELL GOOD CAUSE I ALREADY LOOKED THERE." Sorry, sorry. Disregard the second half of the second sentence on. Anyway. Nice job, really. I would buy it if it were a set, if that's any indication.
If I were to make something out of LEGOs, I would probably use LEGOs. Pretty advanced stuff going on up in my head.

That's a very attractive tower. Welcome to the forum.

Re: LDD first MOC
I'm usually not a great fan of LDD Mocs, but this design looks great. Now try to build it in bricks

Re: LDD first MOC
This would look especially great as the corner of a similarly lovely castle. I'd love to see you bring this into the physical world (when you can). I'm afraid I can't offer any criticism for you!

Re: LDD first MOC
Wow! 
That's a very nice LDD model. Aside from the fact that it would be very oversized for minifigs and would cost quite a few acorns to build, it's pretty fantastic. Would be fun to see this design develop into a full blown castle. Maybe some millionaire can build it someday!
PS, are you over there as part of active military duty? Stay safe!

Re: LDD first MOC
Nice design. Are corners on top 'empty' with purpose?
