I figured.  I think some large-ish "Hydro something or other" set has some
of these yellow corner walls too -- just without the tudor wall lines, of
course. You know, and I hate to keep plugging this stupid page, but you can
score a printable pdf of the tudor wall pattern from:

http://members.aol.com/blueofnoon/lego/gi/givariant.html

print it onto sticky printer paper, and then the lines can be cut out either
in advance, or afterwards, depending on whether you still wish to paint the
element or not. I'd probably prefer not to -- the sticky paper can always be
removed and the element returned to original condition with "goo gone" or
whatever. Ah, and besides that -- I sorta prefer the look of white walls as
is more common in real life timbered walls.

I very much enjoyed seeing your castle landscape.

Thanks for the reply.

(...) "Hydro something or other"? Do you mean the "Neptune Discovery Lab (set 6195)"? Sometimes you can find it now for $45.00 , but 45 bucks for one yellow corner piece? Of course, you also get those completely unique door pieces. NICK :^L~~~ (23 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)
