Josh --
Good grief! Put the thing on a scale? *laugh* I think it's well over 100 lbs,
but I am not sure. When it comes down to the design as a whole, it just kind of
dropped out of my head. I am pretty lucky a lot of the exterior detail has
merged as well as it has. One problem, though, the sections are so heavy the
table is bending and I can't see the lines clear enough to plan the next levels.
So, I have a table top on the floor (when the kids are in bed and the cats are
not around) to build on.
Hopefully I will have the two final roof sections done tomorrow and I can finish
the detail on all the floors... Then, onto the village!
I will, however, put the 'finished' pics on up on Brickshelf (maybe by Sun).
Each floor is completely playable and is finished. I have lots of figs in
there, supplies, magical bits and other stuff for fun in there. Let me know
what you think when the final pics are up!
Also -- thanks for the comments! I love to hear what people think!
