| Hello! (...) Thanks for the praise! I too am pleased with the outcome of the sandy-grey mottling. I pondered to build it completely in sand (since the original is sand-coloured) but I didn't have close to enough parts to do it, and there wouldn't (...) (20 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.castle)

| This MOC is truly amazing!! Jojo, your work constantly astounds me. You are constantly raising the bar. The arched ceiling is absolutely fantastic, and is made even more remarkable by the fact that you don't seem to use any specialized elements to (...) (20 years ago, 8-Mar-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| Jojo, this structure is so impressive! Every once in a while I get it in my head that I'm starting to become a good builder, but then something like this comes along and I feel humbled. Excellent job capturing the overall look of the building, (...) (20 years ago, 8-Mar-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| Hi all, Well, I timed this just about right. I've actually been working on the idea for a bit, but with the new .build.vignette newsgroup, the recent great success of the vignette category in the classic-castle contest, and the spate of great (...)

| (...) Nice job, Matthew. I certainly appreciate the scale you're working with. There aren't too many precedence to follow, so you have to make up the rules as you go. The pose-ability does well for him-- especially the pose where he's laying back. (...) (20 years ago, 7-Mar-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
