Hello all, I put up some pictures I took yesterday of some creations I had made in the last year or so. Comments welcome. LightHouse: (URL) just a test design for round towers, but I like the vines growing up the side in the last picture. Castle (...) (22 years ago, 14-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Very very nice. My personal favorites are the corner tower and the knife sharpener. I think the angle between the tower and the walls looks great, and really gives it character. It's not just a rectangular building set square to the walls. I (...) (22 years ago, 14-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)

They're all great, but my favorite is the village details. The peddler with sharpening stone is briliant. I'm stealing that one. ;-) (22 years ago, 14-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)

The Castle Corner Tower is pretty cool. I like the use of the Harry Potter gems on top of the windows. The Wizard Tower and Peasants cottage are the cream of the crop. I love the grassy hill leading up to the tower. Looks great. I don't think I have (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)

Some awesome stuff, Andy! (...) Maybe I'm just blind or thick today, but I couldn't quite figure out how you did this. What/where is the 3x4x5 triangle you are talking about? The tower isn't at excatly 45 degrees, is it? I know Ed "Boxer" did (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Ah, got it! I thought the 3x4x5 was referring to some triangular brick I wasn't familiar with. I think Ed "Boxer" figured out that you could make an exact 45 degree angle using a triangle of 7 by 7 by 10 (counting studs, not spaces), or (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)
