(...) Thanks! It would indeed be too expensive to make a huge MOC with this design: Both the grey 2x2x3 slopes and the grey 1x2 tiles are fairly expensive parts in large quantities. (...)

Hi Daan, (...) Well, it's mine :) (URL) used this technique for my Tonquedec castle. (...) I really like those windows. I tried also to use the 8x8 plate, but I didn't like the 2x2 square in the middle. You find a very good way to mask it. I hope (...) (20 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.castle)

Hi Marc, thanks for the compliments (now there is even a 'bargerboswindow'...) I like your church very much. You've got to use a lot of brown tiles there. But it really gives a 'wooden' touch to it all. Also the cross on the tower is a nice touch. (...) (20 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Excellent use of 75° slopes, nice stone buildup on the ground, full brick trees, a portcullis made of plates, only true grays and brown--the list goes on and on.
