The Kingdom of Ikros website and the Ikros: Chaos Skies website will soon be deleted from the Ozbricks network of servers permanently.

Other interior touches not mentioned include tiled floors to the entrance hall and conservatory, and a "wooden" (i.e. brown tiles 1 wide) floor in the main hall, as well as a very tight spiral staircase to the top two floors.

I've tried to see the wider picture, but it still looks like there are two cats attacking the cow! Good idea though. I love the ox and the donkey - those star wars bot heads make excellent horns. Alastair (21 years ago, 23-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle)

These animals are great! I think the use of cats for the cow head would be even better for a cow skull. I can see one out in the LEGO desert now :) Good job! James (21 years ago, 23-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
