[MOC] Castle and Griffin Stairwell

Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Please to share with you a castle MOC I made that is draws some inspiration from Hogwarts. The build started with a technic mechanism to make the griffin topped stairwell appear and rise (see animated gif). The height of the castle was a result of trying to hide the mechanism which ended up being far larger than I had first thought it would be. The raised gallery on the side was added to balance asymmetry of the Headmaster's towers on the right.

This is my largest build to date, but I think I'll stick to more manageable sized builds that can fit on my desk in the future.

Finally, I've included my IG profile that has more videos/photos

Nice work on this tower / castle section. The stairway mechanism is a great addition and adds to it.
