Last weekend (Feb. 19-21) IndyLUG had a display at the Child & Parent Expo in Indianapolis at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. We had three sections to the layout: Town/train, Space and Castle.

Most of our club’s shows are train oriented, but this past Expo was open-ended; we could build whatever we wanted. Several people jumped on this opportunity to make a large Castle layout as part of our display.

We used the Classic Castle City wall standard for making the wall around the “good guy” castle and village.



The “bad guy” castle was made entirely by Peter, who was displaying with us for the first time. His fortress was huge. The following four thumbnails are all pics of his single gigantic structure:




We also had other medieval structures throughout the layout






We used two lowered tables to create some bodies of water in the landscape. One for a river, and one for a harbor.




Then, of course, we had hordes of armies duking it out medieval style.





The entire gallery can be viewed here. (There are 3 pages of thumbnails in the gallery.)
