These are simply great! I liked the welsh castle the best.

Which Welsh castle?  The Rhuddlan Castle or the Harlech Castle?

Conwy and Caernarvon are two different castles.  Caernarvon is where Prince
Charles' ceremony to become Prince of Whales was held.  It has Octagonal
Towers, is sorta curved in overall shape, and I believe it is the royal • castle

That is what I get spouting off on interesting but half remembered topics.
I told my psuedo-Welsh friend about Bob's castles and he reminded me that
there is a Conway (or Conwy if you prefer) castle and Caernarvon is a
different one.  Still and all, Bob's designs are awesome and I can only hope
to see  the rest of his constructs soon.  I can't decide if I want the rest
to be more wonderful recreations of historical castles or for some of them
to be equally wonderful original castle designs.  Oh, well, time will tell.
I'm sure no matter what the remaining 68 castles are, we will love them.
