I'm not normally a castle person, but my son asked me to build a castle. So I thought I'd start with the outer walls (not sure what they are properly called). I seemed to have a large number of part #2345s on hand in dark grey (ok... old dark grey) (...) (20 years ago, 16-May-04, to lugnet.castle)

Hi Kevin, Your keep looks great. The snot technique used with the lattice windows creates a nice effect. I too am looking forward to more photos. The massing and roof of your Norman Keep are also good. Ben E. (20 years ago, 14-May-04, to lugnet.castle)
