rucorder Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) A castle I've been working on for a while. Castle Dalrdae by Ru Corder, on Flickr All of the photo's can be found here. http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/280752 Enjoy! Edited October 16, 2011 by TazManiac Indexed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted July 18, 2011 Excellent castle and support settlement 'rucorder', it has a feel of classic castle too ! Tons of greenery and plenty of characters.....including a guy who is very green himself ! Great work 'rucorder' and Brick On ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AwesomeStar Posted July 18, 2011 Gorgeous! Fantastic brick work, the tan looks just right with the light bley, dark bley and even a int of old grey, which is always a welcome addition and adds heaps of realism to any stone wall. The land outside the castle is also excellent. I really love the greenery and the small village. Not to mention the almost sparkling river and those ingenious fences! My only suggestion would be to add some variation in land height - perhaps a slightly raised hill, or even just the odd dip or raise here and there. A spectacular MOC. The Historic Themes forum is really getting a huge influx of new and exciting topics, and is fast becoming one of my favourite boards on the site. Great work, rucorder and I simply can't wait to see more of you in future. Consider the Flickr images favourited immediately! -A.S. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More green plates for better landscaping are definitely on my wish list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoboman Posted July 19, 2011 I like this MOC castle very much. I really like the sprinkled yellow as it gives the walls that built from stone like feel. As others have said the small village also adds to the overall impact. Great Work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stephle59 Posted July 19, 2011 (edited) Good job, I add your creation to my favorites in Flickr. I especially love the "entrance" between both towers. The roof with lion head is great idea ! Edited July 19, 2011 by Stephle59 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brickdoctor Posted July 19, 2011 I love the way this is such an old school style castle, from studs-up design to prefab trees, but it still looks like it could fit right in with modern MOCs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLegoDr Posted July 19, 2011 I really like the blue roofing and the archway behind the front doors. I actually built an archway very similar to that without ever seeing this post! Great minds think alike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
