  Medieval life
 
Hello! Gero of Falckenstein expects the visit of his niece Kriemhild whose guardian he was. Kriemhild is accompanied by her brother Ruediger and of course by an escort. (URL) just a little series, not really a story (to appease those who don't like (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle) ! 
 
  Re: Medieval life
 
There are some lovely touches there. I particularly like your trees (the silver birch is inspired), the mechanism on the gatehouse and the dots around the door arch. Lots of detail and realism Thanks for sharing -- James Stacey ---...--- (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I liked some of the design concepts you used. Also liked the trees! Nice stuff! Keep up the good work and keep posting the results! Tom (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Medieval life
 
I like all the added details you put into the castle, would it be possible to see more pictures of just the castle and the gate house/grounds? Not that I didn't appreciate how they maneuvered the cart through the grounds, I'd like to see more (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Is 3739 Blacksmith Shop available at Lego Stores?
 
Hi all, I'm getting ready to go to Chicago this weekend, and as I'll be dropping by the Lego Store I figured I'd semi-plan my budget. I was wondering (as the subject says) if the 3739 can be found there. If so, good. I'll grab as many as I can. If (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) I was there two weeks ago and they didn't have any. They did have most of the rest of the Lego Direct line including all of the Legends and Wild West. David Kohrman (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Medieval life
 
(...) You told the story just they way you should--with pictures! Leave it to your reader to imagine what the characters are saying to one another. I loved it. It was very cool to see a whole troupe of men with the crest from the 373 red knight. 373 (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Medieval life
 
I truly enjoyed your series. Very good job of showing an event through the figs point of view. What really caught my attention, however, was the wonderful detail that was put into your creations. :-) I was glad to see you also had some overview (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Is 3739 Blacksmith Shop available at Lego Stores?
 
I was at the imagination center in Orlando, FL. the guy there had never HEARD of 3739, or lugnet or anything. But they did have guarded inn and the other legends as well as wild west. it seems S@H is the only way.. for now. -lenny (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  At The Inn Of The Prancing Pony
 
Hello again, Here is the next addition to my Tolkien creations folder, "The Inn of the Prancing Pony". (URL) in the Village of Bree, The Prancing Pony is the original destination of the 4 hobbits as they attempt to find Gandalf the Grey. Operated by (...)

  Re: At The Inn Of The Prancing Pony
 
Jon, Great work as usual. I enjoyed seeing your vision of the inn. Of course being the LOtR fanatic I am pic #16 was enough to make me happy. ;-) -L (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: At The Inn Of The Prancing Pony
 
Jon, wow! I love it. The building itself blows me away. I love the way you did the stone on the bottom floor, and the 1x4 tiles on the timbering. Great landscaping too. And as Dave said - great bed idea! <yoink as well :-)> Very cool...can't wait to (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: At The Inn Of The Prancing Pony
 
(...) Jon, You've done it again. This is beautiful. I think my favorite detail is the way you made the beds. Using all smaller bricks makes the walls look realistic on minifig scale, as does the mix of grays you use. That tap piece makes a good (...) (23 years ago, 5-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)

Thanks Leah, Picture #16 was the only one I really fussed about getting right, It's a pity that Lego doesn't make a Green Hood and a cape! Jon (...) (23 years ago, 6-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)

David, Thanks for all of the positive feedback! I accidentally stumbled across the bed design while I was building Bag end. I don't think I've ever heard the term, yoinks! Jon (...) (23 years ago, 6-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: At The Inn Of The Prancing Pony
 
Thank You Chris, It took some time to get the stone pattern right, but I'm very pleased with it. I got a bunch of very light grey plates from bricklink so I could get three colors of grey in there! Tom Bombadil's is on the checklist of things to do (...) (23 years ago, 6-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: At The Inn Of The Prancing Pony
 
Hey Bruce, Thanks again. I finally decided on a pipe piece after Tamyra suggested the lever idea. That gave a long enough shaft, but it couldn't be gripped by a minifig hand, so I started looking into all my 90 degree angled parts till I found one (...) (23 years ago, 6-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)
