hello all, i would like to add to the castle community by putting up for
scrutiny my new crusader keep.

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=49567

it is my second attempt at a castle, and far more satisfying than my first one
let me tell you, i am quite happy with the way it turned out!there is really
nothing to actually identify it as a crusader keep except for the guards, but i
always liked that line the best, so i built it with them in mind. there is no
landscaping, because i have no green bricks, but eventually i will try a
landscaped castle. sorry about the pictures, i am not much of a photographer.
:-) in any case, please give me some feedback, whether it be on design, color,
accuracy to real castles, etc... thanks and hope you enjoy!

thanks
steve

Hi Steve, Very nice castle! I really like the randomness of it. Looks like it slowly spread due to additions. Great feel and look. One critique, the bottoms of the jutting out towers look a bit rough. I can't think how to do it better, but I may go (...) (21 years ago, 12-Jul-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Very Nice! I love the various levels look to it and overall the imposing height. A great construction. Any interior? God Bless, Nathan (21 years ago, 12-Jul-03, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Hey Steve, It is great,although it might look better if it wasn't all grey. Later, Joshua (21 years ago, 19-Jul-03, to lugnet.castle)
