Hi Steve!


Hey, this keep looks really good! I like the use of mainly standard bricks and just few of these castle wall molded parts. I also like the several levels that are stairlike arranged, and the mix in the over-all design that is halfway asymmetrical but only symmetrical on the top part of the tower. This gives the hole building a “real” look since medieval castles were built without any major plans and blueprints :-) Like Anthony already said your building could pass for a keep standing somewhere in England.

As for the Crusaders identification thing: One red-yellow flag on the top would do it.

Some landscaping would be nice though. I doubt that buildings like that were surrounded by grey asphalt :-)


Bye
Jojo
