Excellent Job Anthony, but I do have a bone to pick with you here....what's with the cloth wings?!?! That doesn't look like Lego to me...I was hoping someone else had finally come up with a strong stable reptillian wing design. :( I guess I wait (...)

Good tower! I like the way you used the 4x3x6 tower/wall pieces in the top, and the way you used hinges to make the octagon shape of the top floor. Nice work, will you make a castle to go with it? Stephen (21 years ago, 22-Jun-03, to lugnet.castle)
