Very attractive design!

My favourite way of doing arrow slits is just doing straight vertical slits
half a brick wide. This makes for a much harder window for an enemy to shoot
through. You can do pairs of them easily by using a few of the 1 by 2 plates
which have a single stud in the middle on the top. I've been trying to
figure out how to make cross shaped ones which are that thin, possibly using
SNOT tecnology. There must be some way.

cheers

Hello everyone. I was playing with some parts the other day and came up with this idea for arrow slits. It is a little large, but I really love how they look. (URL) me know what you think. -Andy Lynch (URL) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle) !!
