I like your "generic building." It's very tight with nice color coordination. On the gate house, it does seem a bit plain. You could consider adding a fancier roof or make the top look like an add-on structure in a different color. On my castle, I (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build.arch)

Hi eric, I'd like to comment on a job well done! I love your city wall and gatehouse, as I mentioned earlier the use of slopes gives it a powerful touch. Did your first version include the inside slopes too? I didn't notice that earlier and like (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build.arch)

Very cool. Out of curiosity, did you do any structural tests or design before building it or did you just slap it up?

Eric, you are doing some *terrific* things there. If you're not satisfied with the wall gate structure, I'd suggest making the outer face a little more interesting.
