Time to think about building something other than Trains, John!!!
Great Job, good ornate details, and very impressive, I can't wait to see
this on a layout table when you guys get the new setup done!

Just be careful of those tall tree's, check my pockets if I come to the next
show ;-Þ

That's a buttload of windows too! LD is very handy when to comes to these
kinds of things!

This MOC is a departure for me in a couple of ways.  Normally, I build
trains and train related stuff.  After having been to LLC this past
summer, I became inspired to create a building that had miniland detail
in it, but was minifig scale.  So I built this chateau with the idea of
having it sit on the new GMLTC layout which is currently under
construction.

Also, I am normally pouring over schematics and photos of trains when I
build, in order to create the most real-to-life MOC I can.  This
chateau, however, came completely out of my head.  I literally just made
it up as I went along:-)

In order to build this thing, I utilized LEGO Direct bulk services, AFOL
parts sellers (thanks, Julie K:), and my own multiple set bursting.  I
couldn't have done it alone.

Sorry the pics are rather big and fuzzy-- but here it is-- enjoy!
