OH MY! Holy Cow, etc, etc....
Talk about inspiring! I was going to drive back 2 hours to Buffalo just so
I could pull my Gray Castle elements out of storage!
I can see the M.C. Escher influences...I bet you could do cool B+W pictures
w/ grainy finish w/ a Mavica or software, etc.
I like the idea of your creation hovering over a lake...
Like many others I like your skull door...ever since I saw Dan Jezek's
fortress, I have wanted to do a giant skull wall...your door idea is even
better!
Architectually intriguiging and accessible...great combination ! (my
exclamation point is getting a workout here)
I have been pouring over the brickshelf pics for 45 minutes....I love the
non-traditional Corners...2 arches meeting for a great open air feel. I
love the various stairwells in the topdown pics....
Heck I even want to see the Mephisto hovering lounge...lol
I never really like the CRAPPs, but your use in a new way has change my mind...
I love the white wizard...Considering I am a big fan of the Ralph Bakshi
animated "Lord of the Rings", I really wanted to do this...
I can't wait to read the Spider Chariot integration in your "fables"
What strikes me is the "non-boxy" organic flow of the structural lines
....the standard windowed gray wall sections are nicely integrated without
giving the structure a 90 degree square and standardized look...
The close-ups near your entry ways and balconies are great...such
detail...lots of slopes, arches, and ornamentation...the liberal use of gray
1x1 rounds makes me wish I had more. A new twist on the "standard gray
fortress" = )
I moved towards the Asian/Ninja designs because I didn't have access to my
gray stockpiles and I just wasn't happy with my "blocky designs"...I am
inspired to start anew!
I can't wait to see more!!!

(who suspects where the new painted rope bridges came from = )
