Jon, I just had to say, very tastefully done! I really like the livery and the gate house. The nice part is, you can 'buy' extra wall sections to expand the sides making it a much deeper walled city. That way you could fit everything inside the (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

I couldn't agree with you more Jon. We castle fans don't need any fancy new pieces to make us happy; just a reappearance of castle sets. Those modular sets you're created are exactly the kind of thing I want LEGO to bring back to the market. I've (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

Jon, this is lovely, and you've set yourself a hard problem. The thing that seems not quite in theme about it is the monochrome colors. Most Lego castles have a spot of color, a red, black, or blue roof. It keeps the minifigs smiling. -Erik (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)
