PirateRoberts Posted September 12, 2020 Made this a few months ago. Playing with open backs for interior. Simple design for a classic castle look. Enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimmynick Posted September 12, 2020 Hello @PirateRoberts and welcome to Eurobricks! Thanks for bringing your best game with this castle! It's got a great classic feel with the rectilinear lines and the open back that I absolutely love, and you've paid enough attention to the walls to liven up the texture. I really like that you've recessed some of the windows and built arrow loops into the gate house and keep, and the hammerbeam roof in the great hall is a simple yet wonderful architectural feature. Again, welcome to the board, and with this MOC you're really making an entrance. Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zoth33 Posted September 13, 2020 Very nice castle. I like all the interior rooms, very detailed. I like the red roofs, but if you had enough slopes in dark blue or regular blue that would nicely match the figs coloring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, a different color roof scheme would have matched the figs much better. I need to buy a bunch of roof bricks in other colors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deraven Posted September 13, 2020 Very nice classic-style build with a little bit of more modern technique sprinkled in. Nice (and fun) interiors as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So do I. I have some red, blue, black and grey. But I need a wider variety and more probably going to need a B&P order soon. I really like the dark blue for roof colors on the light or dark grey.

Not that you were asking for my opinion, but I think the red roofs make the castle just a little bit livelier than it could be otherwise, and gives it an especially classic feel that works well with the rectangular proportions.
