Quite proud of this one. It's not as best as my XL Kitchen or XL Garage, but I wanted to show you guys what I made.

Not bad. There's a lot of textures that don't fit with each other so the appearance isn't spectacular, but good for a start. Nice work.

Which textures do you think not fit? Honestly, in my opinion, I feel the stone block texture doesn't work. Would it work better if I used a different texture for the stone blocks?

I think to add to Rozi's point, it's also likely to be the colours. I think the red and the green do not go, it's a bit too striking, especially with more cartoony textures. The green texture in the first image for those platforms that go off to the right doesn't seem to match the one further back in the image towards the top middle. In the third image, that green wall texture does not work for whole big blocks - I would strongly suggest that the tops of those platforms use a normal platform texture, and there should probably be trim.

In terms of your stone block texture, it does look alright in parts, but the second image really shows that it looks quite mundane with everything else. I would suggest a variety of textures for the fortress, perhaps some more metal-like textures, or simply more of the colours and less of the grey.

Hope this feedback is useful.

I think I'm going to do a mix of stone/metal textures. I'm going to not combine red and green together: your right it needs one color.

I'm going to change the floor textures near the end. I'm going to make the main floor grassy, and I'm going to change the floors. You seem... logical about that.

Edge whites are a no for that part. I might change the green walls to edge whites though.

I'll post an updated result probably late tonight. Thanks for the help guys!

Yes, this is starting to look better. Glad you're not overdoing it. Could we perhaps see a shot of the whole level, like the second image last time?

I'll be getting to that eventually. I'm fixing up errors and minor text fixes on two levels I made today, 25 and 26.
