Finally another Ninja theme MOC.....I have been working on mine for a
year....I am ver impressed....lol
I am a fan of the Osaka castle I saw in a travel magazine ....I would love
to know of any historical links that have pictures of the castle you modeld
or of others.....
Your Castle is similar in design to what I have been working on...but your
execution of the sloped roof design is much better than mine...My design
seems to be a conglomeration of shinto and Chinese design....not
historically accurate; but I like it anyway.
My fortess has 4 levels....I didn't know it was a 3 or 5
scale...oops...gotta change that.
I have torn mine apart dozens of times trying to make a modular design....I
got caught up trying to design an interior...I finally have a tatame sliding
door design that I am happy with using plates and 1x2x1 thin wall
sections....the halls are narrow...but I am working on that...Trying to
maintain symmetry is a challenge... I have switched to a combination of
slopes and plates mounted on hinges to add texture to the roof on all 4
sides. The other problem I have is integrating stairs to acess each level.
I am so happy that I am no longer alone in the "ninja" theme...
there is a Ninja theme link at Baylug that has amazing "practice mat"
designs for all 3 Ninja theme factions...
I have to finally buy a SONY mavica or some other Digital cam that works w/
my little web box to Post pictures....
Long story short....thanks for the pictures.... = )

Lots of pics from pro and amateur photographers from (...) (25 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
