As I was taking apart Cliffton I noticed how heavy the different pieces (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jun-05, to lugnet.town, lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Hey Nathan, there is alot to like in here: aysmetrical castle, giant beacon, water feature, sculpted terrain...and plenty of action to please the mainline hot weather crowd. Excellent attention to detail throughout. My personal favorites are (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates, FTX)

| (...) Well, rats. I was about to propose a Chess Set contest, but I would have proposed it with no restrictions on theme. Medieval themes would of course have been well represented, but I think we would have seen some interesting entries in other (...)

| (...) Nathan I just love it. I like how its suspended on the rock. looks like it's really floating on clouds. Very nice work I give it a 10 out of 10. (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) I'm not a castle guy, but this is very impressive. I like the inclusion of water and trees as natural elements. The building style incorporating stone and wood buildings is very nice. And of course the inclusion of all the little details like (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates, FTX)

| (...) I've done more in castle than in town, actually. (URL) And even with castle there is room for strange interpretations. I've heard a lot of "Is this supposed to be something from Lord of the Rings?" Specifically when they are look at scene (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.town, lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Thanks for the comments! Rest assured there are stairs, doors, access etc.. to everywhere, they just don't make for as interesting pics to the average observer ; ) Thanks again and God Bless, Nathan (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)
| | | | | Re: Cliffton Castle
|
| (...) Good points... I tried a blue roof originally (no pics unfortunately...) and it did look better on the building (as did taking away some yellow) but it made the pier loose influence on the whole MOC so I went for loud for the sake of the (...)

| | | | | Re: Cliffton Castle
|
| (...) It's just my opinion, so I don't know how much it matters, but yeah, it seems like it has too many colors. Right now it has white, blue, yellow, black, and green (oh and brown details and a red sign). I think that if you replaced the white on (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| So, here it is, my first ever castle creation. I had a lot of fun with this build, imagining a whole backstory of a wizard who was able to protect his home and his family from the destruction of their world by casting a spell around their castle, (...)

| | | | | Re: Cliffton Castle
|
| (...) I like it a lot. The big thing for me is the feel of a living community. The variety of structures helps there as does the landscaping. The town on a hill feel is very effective. Good interiors too, but I couldn't satisfy one of my favorite (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)
| | | | | Re: Cliffton Castle
|

I'm sorry the oar maker isn't to your taste...One, or two colours too many? : ) Actually I really needed it to lighten the whole MOC and focus the eye into (...)
