(copy of comment posted on lego IDEAS) Thank you Roebuck, I considered many animals all those you've said but also, a spider, an owl, birds, a crow, a bat, a fish, a boar, a rabbit, chickens, and a bear. Some of these, like the deer, don't exist in stud.io so I couldn't use it, some others, like the bat and the olw, I do not like the mold so much. The bat mold is to old and the owl (even if the newest printings are great) is just a little too big for me. And the printed owl is not in stud.io Some just don't fit very well here in this scene, like a goat (that I really want to have !) or chickens or a rabbit. Lego always put very few animals in sets and I guess they do it on purpose, it makes them so rare and valuable. I'd also like so see much more but if they make this set with the squirrels and a horse I'd be happy enough. The horse is also important for me, in the '90s you could get 4 or even 5 horses in one set. You could easily have a small horse riding army. Just look at the lego sets now, how long has it been since we got one normal horse? To answer your last question, I already did an update with more animals. :-) If some of you want to check out my updates on my first idea on Lego Ideas, I've created a huge scene. It has many animals and details but the most interesting thing is how I turned the plates on the ground. That build was sooooo complex ! When at the end I build the main castle I just wanted to finish it. https://ideas.lego.com/projects/1e7042a3-ea85-4b6e-935a-38dee2264451/updates#content_nav_tabs

I've ordered some parts at bricklink to make a bigger medieval village. I found set 10193, the medieval village at a really good price and now I'd like to build 2 more buildings in exactly the same style. One will be in medium dark flesh and the other in sand blue. I don't know when I will find the time to build them but that's my project for now. I'll show you when I'm done.

Thank you leafan, I'm so excited, checking my vote count 100 times a day. :-)

Hello poVoq here, Good news for the Classic Castle fans !!! My idea "The Castle in the Forest" is getting votes at a really high speed ! > Top popular gathering votes 1st place for a total of 10 days since I started (just over 3 weeks ago), > it's the idea that gathered the most votes of all projects this weekend. At this rate I will pass the 5000 votes this weekend, my idea could be in the Lego Ideas e-mail next monday. I need less than 8 votes a day to succeed before the end. That means that my goal is not to get the 10000 votes in 2 years, I'm hoping to get the 10K before the end of april so that my idea will be in the First 2020 Review. If Lego choses my idea (like they have recently chosen the classic pirate idea) we could have a new Lego castle just before for Christmas 2021 ! Thank you all :-) PS : If you want to reply and say you'll buy it, please do so in the comment section on the Lego Ideas website. You never know, those sorts of comments might influence the final decision. PPS : Vote also for other classic castle projects, it shows to Lego that there are still many of us that want classic castles/medieval themed sets. What do you think, could i it be #036 ? :-)
