I’ve wanted for a while to do some Castle building outside of the
traditional Western European style. So I did some research into medieval
Russian architecture, and decided to start working on a town surrounded by
wooden fortifications. Here is the first wall module:
There are more pictures and information at my
LUGNET page. Please let me know
what you think!

Hi Marc,
I think your construction technique is wonderful for this moc. I like the
tiles and round 1x1’s for the log construction. I am also interested in
wooden historic fortifications. Great job!

Thanks! Hopefully, I will have at least half of a Russian town to bring to
Brickfest.
I have made some efforts towards building a wooden palisade, like one that might
be found in a motte-and-bailey castle. Unfortunately, the cost of the tan
1x1 cones to top the wall
proved to be prohibitive.
The Osprey book, Fortifications in Wessex, c.800-1066 has some excellent illustrations of timber
fortifications.
