Thanks Greg. I plumb forgot to mention that this particular Himeji Castle
MOC takes at least 4 FNFs (6093s) since it uses 40 ninja rock slopes. I
like the double height rock slopes because it more realistically represents
the scale of the castle. Also it uses a bunch of the red roof bricks,
mostly slopes 45s unlike Kumamoto-jo MOC which was a black hole for using
slope 33s (2 dacta red roof packs for that, only one for Himeji).
Finally, it is built on 4 green baseplates and excluding the yaguras, it
is 58 studs by 56 studs and stands 22.5 inches high to the tip of the
shachi (killer whale/dolphin eoof decoration)
Hope to see you at Brickfest.
