I think it really depends on the castle you're trying to build. Overall,
I'd say light gray is the best, but it's possible to have a completely
realistic (or evil) looking castle using black with gray highlights. Didn't
someone have a pink and white castle on here a while ago?

BFF is great, but I would honestly say that I think the Blacksmith Shop may
be the best ever. And I'm normally pretty war-like in nature with my Legos,
not often building anything but castles and seige engines. It's great for
the parts, it's great because it was made by one of us (so buy a bunch and
support the MOC program) and it's great because it shows people (like my
wife and maybe your parents) how realistic, imaginative and detailed a "toy" can

Not that I know of. Are there any with the HP castle?

Blacksmith Shop and Guarded Inn. You can never have too many catapults
though...

Blacksmith Shop, hands down.

Ouch. But don't worry. I was in a similar situation, and it kind of added
to my dark ages. Things picked up a little when I was 16, because I could
drive to TRU and then hide the "toys" in the garage until later. But I
eventually realized that I was the one working for the money (mowing lawns,
cashier, whatever) and I could do with it what I wanted. My parents
couldn't argue with that too much. And if yours do, mention something under
your breath like, "Ok, but then I'll have all this extra money that could go
to cigarettes..." That'll turn them.
But your convincing your parents is much easier than...(pause for effect)...
a new wife! Pulled that one off too though. I somehow got away with buying
Legos on my honeymoon (we were at Disney World at the huge Lego store).
Good Luck,
