    Microfig doesn't mean space does it? —Aaron M. Sneary
   I had decided to pose this question before the treehouse was posted, but I will ask anyway. Is anyone building town or castle stuff in microfig scale? I was looking through David Macaulay's (of How Things Work) Building Big and thinking how (...) (23 years ago, 7-Sep-01, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build)
   
        Re: Microfig doesn't mean space does it? —Tony Hafner
   (...) I've seen a castle and cathedral built in microfig scale. I also remember a tiny town in the context of a train layout in the basement of a minifig-scale house. I don't recall the originators of either of those. X-Posting to .Castle and (...) (23 years ago, 7-Sep-01, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.trains)

     (...) full castle in microfig scale (moat, glacis (sp?), bailey etc. absolutely everything), should be fun, you'll have to wait a little while though, I have other priorities at da moment, ;-) -Geordan- (...)

         Re: Microfig doesn't mean space does it? —Jeremy H. Sproat
     (...) Me too. :-, A microfig (I'm thinking "stickfig" :-) castle would seriously rock, though. Actually, I'm kinda surprised that we're not seeing more from the Castleworld folks. Cheers, - jsproat (23 years ago, 7-Sep-01, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.trains)

      (...) Yeah, heck I shouldn't even be posting here! :-D Well, I was just upstairs fiddlin, and I came up with a way to do a micro fig tanks! and only three studs long! I'll incorporate this with a diorama, pics tonight, should be good...hehe. :-D (...) (23 years ago, 7-Sep-01, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.military)

      (...) Truth be told, I just finished one of those yesterday, after reading this particular thread over. The castle itself is 28x28, with the surrounding land occupying a 48x64 area. I hope to have pics of it up as soon as I can find a digicam to (...) (23 years ago, 9-Sep-01, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.trains)
