Hey all, a couple things to share:

A miniature castle I threw together:

Here's a couple pics of a roof design I came up with.

(...) emulate thatching. Gives you room for a loft as well as an interestingly different roof design for your peasant villages. Matt (24 years ago, 21-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build)

(...) (unfortunately, the pictures didn't turn out to be any good.) Mine wasn't quite as steep, and used a somewhat different construction. Both sides were able to fold upwards enabling me to get at the interior. (24 years ago, 21-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build)

(...) really well with the microfig medieval town Shiri did a while back. The tile door adds a lot; perhaps you could fit in a 1x3 arch for that curved look, or even use a 2x4 arch with 2 seperate 1x2 grill tiles for that portcullis look? A. Mark (...)

(...) 45-degree pitch you should be able to finish the side edge of the peak with virtually no gap using one 1x2 plate on the underside of the 1-by's on one edge. There'll be a bit that hangs down, but it'll look decorative. Amy (24 years ago, 22-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build)
