(...) I've experimented, particularly with branching. A real tree probably branches at a smaller angle than 90 degrees, so I built a structure from your pictures and altered it slightly. Whewre a sub-branch starts, replace the two 1x3 plates on the (...) (20 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.castle)

I've wanted for a while to do some Castle building outside of the traditional Western European style. So I did some research into medieval Russian architecture, and decided to start working on a town surrounded by wooden fortifications. Here is the (...)
