Castle Options

[RaincloudDustbin]

I'm making a medieval/fantasy brickfilm and I need a castle or fort but I'm not sure which way to go. Brick-built? Or ploughing out for Kingdom's Joust or King's Castle? Please give me your opinions,thanks!

Depends on the story I guess.

The castle ist the only set that can make a closed area.

If that is not important, the joust is better, because it is more detailled.

If if you like the rugged look of helms deep, go for that. I imagine it has nice features for a film.

If it is supposed to be something more noble, take the current Hogwarts and take out all the HP symbols. It has a nice interior and I imagine it can be used for many different scenes. Also it includes a huge variety of figs that can also be used for non Harry Potter stories.

I'd say brickbuilt. You have the opportunity to do whatever you want with it. It can fit your story better, and in general can have a better video flex (flags waving, trees bending, grass blowing, and you can end up with a nice MOC if you put effort into it :)
