Princess Peach Castle [WIP]

How would one re-create this?

I want to recreate this castle and bring it into UDK.
Should I do a Modular set? I have try to do this but I been getting a head ache with the top edges where the roof meets the walls. And than the roof it self. Also the Pillars are connected to the walls without a seam.

Or Should I somehow model the whole castle and import it as one object?

With UDK, a major consideration is lightmapping. Being a larger structure, breaking it up into smaller pieces would make it easier to deal with. There are many repeated details, especially the floating windows. A "modular set" might be a big word in this case since it's just copying a few pieces, but yes.

Im having problems with the wall pillar. I want to use the same wall modular piece around it, but the edge on on top breaks apart. What method can I do to fix this?

If anyone is curious in how to bend the shape.
What I did was a intensive search on the modular wall rotation and than the word bend. I found this thread here on polycount and PredatorGSR http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1297940&postcount=10 answering the question. If you want to slowly move the center. Right click the Move button and the Transform Dialog will pop up. ALT and Drag the axis and the value will increase slowly.
