Hey, Excedllent work. The detail is lovely. It is a little "potterish" for my taste but just jumps the hurdle into true castle : ) Thanks for sharing and God Bless, Nathan (20 years ago, 1-Jan-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

Hey y'all, I've been pretty much caught-up in a frenzy of various things going-on in my life, so...hence the absence since July or August (not that anyone noticed...*sniffle*...the curse of being a former lurker).

|

So, recently, someone bought me a copy of the KK2 castle wall: [LEGOSet 8799] But... it came with UNPRINTED shields and a small sticker sheet of the 5 shield designs for KK2. How awesome is that? My first copy of the set came with the normal printed (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jan-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
