Hello!

It is indeed a beautiful model and scene!

Thanks for your comment!

One thing I find most impressive is
the use of basic gray bricks rather than the standard castle wall elements.  It
does make for a very customized and personalized look.

Yes, I intentionally did build the castle without castle wall parts
(although those parts used to be the incarnation of the desirable part in my
childhood). I was somehow surprised when I finished building and had not
used up all my grey bricks. OK, there are just very few remaining.


I am also interested in
"borrowing" your idea for arrow loops, but I haven't been able to replicate
your design.  How did you attach the vertical tile element along the inner side
of the opening?  I'd much love to know!  :)

Take a look at:

For the vertical part I used some old 2*2 tiles without this
fingernail-grip-edge. This doesn't make such a visible vertical stripe
beneath the opening.

Bye
Jojo
