Excellent effort Pawel,
Who said all castles had to be grey(gray). This is the world of Lego after • all
where primary colour towns are standard. The key is to always use • combinations
of colours and in appropriate proportions to highlight certain features. • About
the only combo I'd rule it so far is an ICE PLANET 2002 castle.


Was that rule out?

Hmm... Too bad there isn't enough trans-orange which would work in a castle
(though the towers could have trans-orange octagonal dome roofs). Of course
now that we have solid orange, that could be mixed in with the
trans-orange(too bad I was on the scene a few months too late to get the
Haloween buckets), at least there is a lot of new orange bits coming out in
Star Wars and Arctic.

What could be made out of orange elements though?  Nothing on a large scale,
so thinking small scale ... What stucture would look good done in orange?
Nothing
comes to mind right away, and seeing as I'm a Vol I should be biased.  (we
were robbed by UNC ... ugh ... )

For me, building in orange would be very frustrating because I would feel
limited.  But having a touch of orange in a green structure would look
half-way decent INHO
...

What about an insectoid sub-sub-theme called the fruit-flyoids who inhabit
orchards in their small orange castles ... or Arctic castles ? those polar
bears can get a bit frisky and you don't want to get too physical with
them,though my 2 year old's Duplo polar bear looks rather benign.
