Since I'm not really getting anywhere in publish.photography, I was wondering if the two largest groups could comment. Anybody used this camera listed below?

(...) the problem with the apex roof solution is here: (URL) you look closely, you'll see that you can see the edge of the apexes, which means the solution can only be best used when both edges of the roof are covered by something (another wall or (...) (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Hi James, Thanks for your comment. Yes, it is the Harry Potter bedspread. I really wanted that it would look like a gipsy tent, and I think it achieved it more or less. Maybe it could use another one (which I don't have...). It's weird cause (...) (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Thanks for the comment, I had this idea for some time now, but havn't had the turban for it. I really thought it was original but now I've seen what Rene did so... Thank you very much Josh Yaron "Webrain" Dori (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: "White Lion Castle" updated ! :)
 
Hi, yes the straight stairs where much more bigger, but an old medieval keep doesn't have such big stairs, 'cause small stairs with a turn will make an attack with a battering ram much more difficult. And the proportion of the stairs to the keep is (...) (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)

Hi, It's just up to the second floor: cellar, 1st, 2nd ( started ) The third floor the for towers and the roof will be finished in May i think :) So this keep will be even higher than now, 'cause it should be the highest building in my castle. (...) (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Well, the use of glass windows is much older, the Romans used it. In all the Roman ruins in Britain a vast number of glass shards from windows have been found. regards Arne, Copenhagen (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: "White Lion Castle" updated ! :)
 
(...) Well, it seems you're progressing along fine with the project, placing a nice amount of fidelity into the structure and design elements. (arches, shields, etc.) From what I see, it has a rather imcomplete look, but it's starting to shape up (...) (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.castle)

Hi Nathan, (...) This I can imagine very well. I don't have the particular baseplate you're using here, but I owe the elevated one used for King Leo's Castle (6091).

  Re: Compatible?
 
I've seen the same image and wondered. I very much doubt these keels will be compatible with TLC hulls, but depending on how many of those decorations can be stripped off, you might be left with a hull base suitable for a pirate-era ship -- albeit (...)

  Re: Compatible?
 
(...) The smaller parts (bricks & accessories) are compatible (Purists may not like them on Purity grounds), but the hulls themselves almost certainly will not be. You're right about the rocks-at-sea and historical-compatibility issues, though! (...) (21 years ago, 21-Apr-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle)
