@luvalphvle, thank you. This is only my first try. :)
Thanks, @MiaSkywalker! It's nice to know an expert on this style approves of what I've come up with. :blush: It's only my first try at this style, but it's been fun and I'm going to try to do more, since I love the cottage look. I've just stayed away from them so long because roofs are so hard and this style always looked the hardest. :s

I absolutely LOVE your steampunk one, although I haven't put it in a game yet.
That's my favorite, too. I don't know if you know of @HollownessDevour, but she was the person who really introduced me to that look. She has great things in her
studio and I'm pretty sure they're all CC-Free. I think my favorite is her "Steampunk on a Stick." I really like how she incorporated the castle roof tops into that build. I've wanted to try doing something similar, but I'm also trying to get a hang of the roof thing, first.

I would imagine that the roof makes the tower unusable, but that's OK, you'd have to figure it's there for aesthetic purposes. :)
That's correct. I just put it there for looks, but, darn, would it have been nice for some extra room. *snaps fingers*
Rats! :p

The whole style reminds me of Dr. Seuss. I can't wait until you finish it.
I've been working on the inside. Like the outside, it's all very colorful. I'm trying to make it all flow without being a sight for sore eyes. I don't want to blind anyone. LOL. :D So, there's quite a bit of patterns, but nothing that will tear your eyes away from the computer screen. ;) I especially like going into game for a little bit of testing. I've been playing with the light settings. The outside looks really nice with magenta and the living room really glows with cyan. :heart_eyes:

The pagoda roofs are very difficult to work with. They tend to overhang further than other roofs, so unless you want that kind of roof look, you have to start a square in.
Yes. This is what I noticed, when I was testing it out. The picture below is what I was planning to do,
before I gave up. :D I connected a half gable roof to the pagoda, but since the pagoda roof stuck out more, I then added an extra half gable roof to the outside and deleted the walls around it, so they would be even, too. I managed to get that look right, but I was lost on what to do for the rest of the roof. :scream:
