The first module in my collab with soccerkid6. The windmill actually works, not only do the blades turn, but a grindstone is operated as well. You can see a video of it here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/130093880 ... otostream/
A miller operates his mill just outside Katoren's walls:

Lovely architecture and colours! Also the function is a nice touch. Regarding the photo, I would probably prefer some more contrast between the border and the backdrop.

Re: Katoren Windmill
I really like your choice of windmill design and the color combos for this build. I must agree with Dubbadgrim; the background seems to detract from a fantastic Lego build. Keep up the good building man

Thanks, Aard! I'll keep that in mind. If I were to switch, what color would you recommend?AardWolf wrote:I really like your choice of windmill design and the color combos for this build.
