Well done!!!

I like the overal aesthetic you have going here. One of the things I notices was the use of a wooden tower attatched to a stone wall. A great idea, and I'm sure it was done many times!

I also really like the brown window pane inside the merchant's window. How'd you manage that one?

Thanks for sharing, I'll keep checking back!!!

Those crenelations are very cool!

Hi wunztwice. It's actually just a window piece with the latice up against the inside wall, instead of apart of the wall...does that make sense...

cheers.

Its looking good, CAI. I'm liking the "look" you have going on. I noticed two different versions of the merchant's house. Which one did you stick with? Personally, I prefer the lattice window over the blue shutters...

Hi,

I'll be sticking with the black and white, rather then white beams - it was suggested earlier that white beams didn;t mix so well, and I agree.

Heres the next part:

Ye olde Inn

And some of the modular structures
together

Very nice inn CAI, I love the colours you used. The only thing I'm not so sure about is the smoke. The inside looks nice and crowded. The beggar outside is a nice touch

Wow! Ye Old Inn is really neat. It has a crowded feal inside and i really like how you put the keg into the wall. How did you get the two roof sections to intersect like that?

Wow, that is incredible! The details are just amazing! I love all the little scenes and minifigs around, it's just great. Though someone may have already said this, I don't think the smoke looks right from the Inn. But still, a very, VERY good MOC!

Can't wait to see the gatehouse!

thanks,

The intersecting roof pieces, I got them on brick link. Here's the Gatehouse, similar to my old one.

I love the mottled effect you have with the jutting crenellations, 1x1 round pillars, and ocasional dark grey brick. Fantastic!

Excellent gatehouse, it completely matches the rest of the castle.
And I must say that's some great piece of photography too, it's so sharp and clean

I love the gate house.

I really like the gatehouse, and how the walls are so large and imposing. I also like how the castle has that "crowded" feel to it. Nice job!

Excellent castle. Great job. Too bad LEGO didn't mass produce these (just an idle thought, semi-serious.)
