Well, I'm a week into christmas break, and after 2 other tries to build a castle and not getting the results I wanted, this is what I ended up with so far... it's not complete yet, I still need to do a few other things... just not sure how to get (...) (24 years ago, 30-Dec-00, to lugnet.castle)

Hello everyone, I guess it's time to announce that I'm making a feature length movie with LEGO studios. This will be a huge project and should be quite interesting when finished. The movie wil take place in a D&D/medieval fantasy type setting. You (...) (24 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle) !

Hey Tamy, I agree with Wilson, cool use of the chains! I also rather like double windows in the front. It gives the castle a very heavy feeling, together with the chains, ninja doors and the [battlements I think you call'em?]. Nice job! Take more (...) (24 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Nice work, hope to see some side and rear pictures. I like the 'stone' work around the windows on the side and the front. I would probably move the windows a bit higher up the wall, just from a defence point of view, but I have no idea what (...) (24 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.castle)

You might try a power focus for your camera. I found it very difficult to set the focus from a distance from the computer. Check this out. (URL) Fay California, USA rfay@we.mediaone.net (URL) (24 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)
