Recently I re-did the Black Falcon's Castle as one version of the CCS.  This
week I worked on set 6085 Black Monarch's Castle. I didn't have enough bricks to
finish it and right now it looks like I won't be able to finish it til around
the 1st of the year.

So on the advise of Lenny, I decided to post what I have done so far.  I have
done the Gatehouse and one wall section.  I hope you enjoy it.  Here is the

Castle Rocks!

Hey Don, I’m glad you took my advice. This looks quite nice, very much in the same vein as the original. heck, took me a while to figure which was which.

already on the c-c city page!

keep them coming!

Hello Don,
I like what you're doing here. It really shows the versatility of the CCC
Standard. I like the way you've preserved the original color scheme too. I think
that castles with black walls with light grey details are better looking than
the all grey ones.

Maybe the LEGO Company will see what you're doing and return to the idea of
creating modular castle sets, like they did when the Black Falcon's Fortress and
Black Monarch's Castle were first released.

Keep up the good work!
Stephen
