Nah, I don't think matching is a good idea. I agree that a real city (...) (19 years ago, 27-Apr-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

|
| I just had a peek at what is coming in the KK2 series for 2005, and it seems like the 8877 Vladek's Dark Castle is a return to the classic fold-out designs. At least there is no ugly raised baseplate, and the design looks highly modular. (URL) this (...) (19 years ago, 27-Apr-05, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | Re: Minas Tirith scenes
|
| (...) Thanks for the comments. I see what you mean on the arch/slope thing (at first I thought you meant along the tops of the walls, which I was pretty happy with, but I assume you mean the shape of the gateway). That comes out of a) inverse slope (...) (19 years ago, 26-Apr-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| Very nice! I especially liked the flooring in the House of Healing -- set diagonally. I'd love to peek at how that was done. Keep up the great work! Joe (19 years ago, 26-Apr-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Very nice work. The city gates are quite large and look like they could withstand some punishment. One nit, I don't think the arch & slope combination works, I think it would look better if you just went with slopes for the whole thing. The (...) (19 years ago, 26-Apr-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| Hi all, "So, Bruce, why haven't you updated your Lord of the Rings story in over a year?" "Well, I keep getting distracted by other things, but I have been building sections of Minas Tirith off and on." Well, I've been alluding to these for quite a (...)
