Fellow Lego Enthusiasts:

The final brick is in for Castle Chillon on Lake Geneva.  The castle can
be
seen at http://www.end.com/~jynx/castle/chillon.html.

My model was constructed using 30,698 Lego bricks!  The rough breakdown
is
as follows:

    Gray bricks   20,418
        1xn bricks = 11,202
        2xn bricks = 4,557
        Baseplates = 2,869
        Arches = 186
        Slants = 449
        Tiles = 390
        Misc = 747

    Red slants (roofing)   2,609
    Other colors (infrastructure, etc)  7,671

It was my largest castle to date!

        Bob Carney

(...) Whoa is right! That looks great! I'd love to see inside the walls if it's done too. I like the courtyard inside... it looks like those bigger early castles were actually roofless malls. -Tom McD. when replying, the wheel was accidentally (...) (25 years ago, 18-Aug-99, to lugnet.build)
