  Orthanc
 
I saw the LOTR on Saturday.... finally an application for those inverse half arches! (URL) the four pronged torch holder makes a good, if oversized, staff for Saruman). Cheers Richie Dulin (Who didn't realise he had that many black bricks, but (...) (22 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle) !

(...) Beautiful, Richie. I particularly like the details around the base. The shot of Saruman at the top against the sky is also cool. I've got to start thinking about how I'm going to do Orthanc. Bruce (22 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Wow, neat Richie. I just saw LOTR yesterday, and can't wait to try (or see someone else try) MOC's of Hobbiton and Bree. George (22 years ago, 22-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)

Beautiful! Yu really have given it a very evil feel! If I ever push my medieval castle building into the fantasy realm, and make a "baddies castle" this is very much the kind of feel I would like to create. Magnus (22 years ago, 23-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Orthanc
 
(...) Thanks Magnus! The tower is pretty much copied from the movie so I can't really claim credit for the evil feel :-(. The base (the grey part) is my own, but includes movie related bits (three doors, and a palantir inside), and the upward (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-02, to lugnet.castle)
