The large white mushroom castle is 14 inches tall and has 2 main floors.
The first floor has the kitchen, study, dining hall and throne room pretty
much all crammed into a small space with a spiral staircase leading up to
the king's (very spartan) bedroom/loft that overlooks the throne (the
balcony has arches in it from side to side but it's impossible to see in the
pics).  The second floor is removable just like the tops of all my other
mushroom houses.

My mushroom village is coming together slowly but surely, one day it will be
a thriving community. =)

Wow! Those are really cool Nathan! I enjoy the ideas you have here. The
king's mushroom castle is really really cool. Nice economy of space and
structure, while still maintaining the integrity of the structure. I
think it's GREAT! I look forward to more mushroom houses in the future!

Have you thought of making round spots on the roofs (ala smurf village
in the old cartoon)? Or would that be too difficult witht he way you
construct the roofs? It might look cool to have a multicolored roof on
top more like mushrroms look in "real" life.

Thanks for the compliments! =)  Glad you like the mushrooms. =)  I tried
making splotches of color on the red and black mushroom houses but it's
difficult (for me, anyway) to get them to look as round as I want them to
be.  It's hard to do with the curve of the building the way it is, if I had
more 1xn and 2xn plates I think I might be able too.  I'd like to,
eventually, have a mushroom house for just about each color LEGO makes, the
hard part is getting tiles in the sizes and colors I need, I'm always
running out and I'm on a limited budget =\.  Blarg... =)  Thanks again for
the compliments!

Merry Christmas!
