JON, I think what you've done here is perfect. Though the "sets" may not be as big as some would want, they definitely make for some nice add-ons. Since seeing your creations, I've started making "modules" off of your ideas. I agree with you 100 (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Don't worry , as evidenced by other posting, the battlements were something that had to be sacrificed to lower parts count. These arent really something I would build to show off my design skills, rather something I would buy , to build what I (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

I really like the overall idea, and it's quite similar to something I have been slowly developing. (school and work get in the way) I especially like the way you have ladders and doors connecting almost everything and I hope you will post more of (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

Beautiful! I have also been thinking along similar lines recently, and you have captured much of what was on my mind. The monochromality of your stuff doesn't bother me so much, castle tended to be all the same colour. I would however, suggest you (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)
