Bjarn-dar Keep

Post by soccerkid6 »

This build was inspired by Scottish Castles and Tower-Houses. I wanted to experiment with a modular building setup, and a new style of stonework. The keep is built on four separate 16×16 sections that can be pulled apart and rearranged. For the stonework I used brackets, headlight bricks, and brick with stud to give three different depths to the SNOT tiles. Credit for the corbel design under the battlements goes to LL. John designed the brickbuilt arches used here.

Bjarn-dar Keep sits in Southern Mitgardia and is the main residence of the Bjarn Clan. Today a fresh shipment of supplies is delivered by some Mitgardian merchants.

Just noticed the brick-built arches here, really nice! I am curious as to how strongly they hold themselves. Great work on the rounded tower section jutting out - I am sure that was relatively tricky to do.
