The first set of pictures are up for the NELUG Castle display in the window at
The Construction Site in Waltham MA http://www.constructiontoys.com/ .

At this stage 3 NELUG members are included.  They are Dave Eaton, Chris
Phillips, and Eric Kingsley.  Suzanne Rich is going to be adding her stuff soon
to help complete the display.

Unfortunately this is an extremely difficult space to photograph and the
outside pictures have quite a bit of glare off the windows.  I am hopeing to go
back and take some more pictures once Suzanne adds her stuff.  I will wait
until I can go at night because the outside glare should be minimized at night.

Anyway for now here are some pretty good pictures to start off with.

Please not the Gate and "Modular" Wall system that Dave Eaton and I came up
with.  I like it a lot and I think it will only get more impressive as we are
able to add more sections in the future.  Many of us plan on making this
display an ongoing NELUG project even after it is no longer in the window at
TCS.

Great stuff! I love it! I really like Chris' castle, and the modular wall-system looks fabulous! Hopefully I'll manage to wiggle through my loads of homework and get to the TCS next weekend. If I can, I'll try and take some pics. -Shiri (25 years ago, 2-May-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

The keep and wall sections look *fantastic* !!!!! Is there any chance we'll see an LDraw file of a wall section, so that we can get an idea of the piece count and design of them? *drool* I love it's scale, and the sparcity of windows is a nice (...) (25 years ago, 3-May-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) approaching the wall? :^) The pictures that are up look nice and it does look like a difficult space to photograph. Essentially WE WANT MORE PICS!, how does that sound? Pretty Please? Mike :^) All other themes are just spare parts for Castle! (25 years ago, 3-May-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
