frumpy Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Hi All, I've completed the Gatehouse of Coltherstone castle. I've now completed 10 of the 12 sections and busily working to get the last 2 sections done in the next month. This was a fun section to build as I had to make the drawbridge and the portcullis operational. The drawbridge is controlled by some wheels just inside the doors. On the top there are sections that open so that you can control the portcullis. I'm pretty happy with how this turned out as I tried to avoid it being too blockish. C&C welcome.

Ruse901 Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I like the use of the palisades pieces on the drawbridge. Nice pops of color to break up the grey as well. Quote
