Originally, there were some sketches and floor plans - but not intended
as a building sketch for LEGO, but as a scenario layout for an AD&D
adventure module.
I did a few design tests (the grey walls, and the diagonal tudor) before
i started, and the layout, especially the planning of the location of
the vertical beams, was done with round 1x1 in different colours on a
set of grey building plates. Sorry, no photos, as I got the camera when
this design stage was well over. I may take photos of the design stage
when I start the rear half of the setting, though...

Yea, they were quite difficult sometimes, especially with the problem
that such ordinatry pieces like red slopes 45° are only available in
minute quantities. I raided every german BrickLink shop (and quite a lot
of other people) on red 3046s - and I'm still searching, as I need more
for the servants quarters and the blacksmith shop in the rear half of
the scenario.

Thank you.

That should no be a problem, as the model can be disassembled into about
20 modules (each building, each level, and a few extra), which will be
stored in padded boxes.
Yours, Christian
