Hi,

yes, very nice moc !
the interior is very cool - the "chimney" looks great !

why did you use brown and no grey plates for the roof ? I thought the
norman`s build them out of stone or lead.
But maybe an early keep... :) very nice compact work.

Here are a few pics of my newest MOC, a compact keep which is the first
part of
my new castle project. Thanks to Abe Friedman for taking pictures at last
weekened's WAMALUG meeting.

The keep from the outside:

I have since made the windows in the corners of the octagonal turrets
much
narrower.

...and showing the interior, what will be the great hall:

It is sort of hard to see, but in the upper right hand corner, squeezed
into the
square tower is a spiral staircase and a toilet. On the first floor there
is a
entrance chamber where an intruder is exosed to fire from holes in the
ceiling
and wall.

PLMKWYT!
