This is a MOC from approximately 18-24 months ago, where I tried to incorporate
as many Belville pieces as possible, in the end you can probably only see 30% of
them and in the photo about 20%.

Using light yellow, light violet, dark pink, white, yellow, orange and
trans-pink in large dollops, it's an icecream vendors nightmare.

Departing a great deal from the original plan while building, an outer facade
covered up some things I wasn't happy with and concealed some problems with
scale.

The first storey is chunky and would have been reworked, if it didn't mean total
demolition. Call it a work in limbo. I dont mind the top, where it reverted to a
more traditional castley feel in white and trans-pink.

Only one photo at the moment, I'll get some more that show design details in the
coming week.

Nice work pete.w!

Any chance of inverting the tower and remodelling the bottom part while
preserving the top?

Spotlighted. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers
