I'll add this information to the ldraw parts keywords.  If y'all have any
other castle-y goodness to add to the castle-y ldraw parts, please let me know.

Will do.  Is there specific info you're looking for, or should I just shout
if I see anything?  I'll admit that I don't exactly browse the Ldraw parts
list all that often...

Well, heraldry terms and technical names for objects are always good.  I'm
looking for any words that people might reasonably use to search for a part.

Ok.  I'll work on building the proper heraldric terms for the various
blazons in use.  I'll bug my wife, and see if she can give me some of the
terminology for some of the clothing indicated on the torso patterns
(although most of those, I think, are fairly generic).

As a note, some of them may not have a "real" heraldry - brown for instance
isn't one of the 9 proper tinctures, although it gets used in later
heraldry.  I'll try and get them as close as possible.

You can check the patterned parts on these pages:
http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptpatterns.cgi?p=973
http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptpatterns.cgi?p=3846
If you click the link on each unofficial part, you get details for it.

This search
  http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptscan.cgi?q=castle
turns up a few more castle-related, unofficial parts.

Thanks for the links; I'll work on them in spare moments.  Would you prefer
I e-mail you or post here, and should I post them as I do them, or wait
until I've got several done?

thanks,

James

(...) Very good! :) (...) That's all we ask. It doesn't have to be complete -- if there's no good term for brown, then we don't have any data to add for it. Brown is brown. (...) If you could email them to me in bunches, that'd be great. Steve (22 years ago, 7-Aug-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.cad.dev)
