I finally posted a couple pictures of the castle/keep that I built for the NELUG window display at The Construction Site. (Yes, that's a grey 48x48 baseplate that it's built on.) (URL) no interior yet, but the window display is still well over a (...) (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.castle) !

| | Forestmen and Wolfpack... thoughts
|

I've been thinking a bit about those Wolfpack and Forestmen (1). First of all, I think the reason they are so sought after and viewed as "cool" by many castleers (aside from being hard-to-get :) is their rag-tag and slightly disorganized (...) (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)
