Gary The Procrastinator Posted December 31, 2014 (edited) Updated with a shot of the completed interior, posted below. My second largest single-build MOC ever. The roof alone consists of 3623 1x1 dark red slope 30 cheese wedges (I'm single-handedly responsible for their price bump on Bricklink...sorry about that!) The architecture is inspired solely from a single photo of one of those staircases from Dankwarderode Castle in Brunswick, Germany. For a rear view, and the full story, just click on the picture or here for the link. As promised a while ago (though it took longer than I wanted) here is a shot of the interior: Thank you for your comments! Cheers, Gary Edited March 1, 2015 by Gary The Procrastinator Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mpoh98 Posted January 8, 2015 Lovely work Gary, this is a beautiful build!! A fantastic entry, I love how effectively you used the masonry bricks, and that roof is a killer! The 2 chimneys in the back are a great addition to the build as well, does it have an interior? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
