I particularly like 3 and 4, 5 seems a little unfinished somehow because of the semi-open cockpit space. I'd like to see the other side of 3 and I think 5 would be fairly easy to improve.

Dave!

(...) The problem, at this point, is that I think we only have one plate in this style (though maybe the set comes with two--I can't remember). That would be a small castle and a really small volcano! Dave! (21 years ago, 28-Jul-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) I think that's the case. IIRC (it's been a couple of weeks) the plate itself is stone-dark-gray, and the painted water/stream/creek of the original Dragons baseplates is replaced by a red-orange lava flow.
