Hello Luís,

Yes indeed, this verson has better proportions. Substantially improved are the
battements round the top terrace, those small pinnacles on the crenelles made of
cones 1x1 make it look much more like the real life tower.

I'm not sure about the change you've made to the walkway round the tower at the
level of the "capela" though. In my opinion, using a Slope Brick 45  2 x  2
Inverted with a Slope Brick 45  2 x  2 on top of it, makes the battements extend
too far outwards. Besides this, the corners don't look like they suppose to do.
I suggest to use the solution you've chosen for the battlements round the lower
plateau, Plates  2 x  2 mounted SNOT-wise as a vertical shields, for the
battlements round the "capela" level also. On all four faces you could start at
the corner with a 2 studs wide crenelle, then a 2 studs wide gap and so on,
until you end  with a 2 studs wide crenelle at the other corner again. These
corners should all be L-shaped. All sides would thus have 8 closed sections and
7 gaps between them.

With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.

Hello Moolhuysen

Thanks for your interested opinion.
When i reached the "capela" level, i tried to do what you said, but i
don't have the white bricks 1 x 1 headlight necessary to complete the
intire battements :( .
For this version i didn't bought any piece, i only work with the stuff i
have!

Greetings
