Wow! the different use of dark and light tan works very well! you should try some ww2 related mocs; )

Nice!!!

This is amazing! And that onion design is perfect!

Vary Impressive!!

Oh, wow! This thing is gorgeous!

Oh, wow! This thing is gorgeous!

Stunning work.

Oh my gosh. That's one of the most beautiful castles i've ever seen! :O Brilliant walls.

HOLY SHMUBWUBBERS! Thats COOL!

Great effect on the bendyness

You may have gone through a lot of trouble, but you got a great result for it. The effect on the wall is sublime.

This is one of the most original castles I have seen in a while. Thanks for the inspiration

Thanks for all the nice words everyone. Just to stop speculation, the blue 'ninja' wrap I've had for over 5 years (2 longer then I've worked at LEGO) It's one of several unexpected parts I found at the bottom of the grab box in LEGOLand Billund, I did not know the colour was special until it was brought up by Nannan, I would not have used it if I had realised! I don't know why it was made or added to the grab box, but I'm glad to have it!

Superb. Your use of parts is always great and I always feel i've picked up a new trick looking at your MOCs. The dedication to do curved walls in plates is crazy! Like Nannan said below, i'm intrigued by the blue ninja wrap and as you are pretty purist i'm hoping that's in a set coming soon? Great MOC.

Yet again, you astound me. That is one helluva job. Great work.

great AFRICAN deatails ! Excellent castle !

10/5. That ninja looks boss in the last picture.

your lego castle is very very good :)

Excellent build! I love all the little details.

Great work with details mate :)

great Moc! VERY DETAILED!! awesome job, all together a really great creation.

Impressive wall technique!

im speechless.. and that doesnt happen often

amazing castle! The brickwork for the walls is some of the best I've ever seen for a castle, and you have to win the prize for the best use of Ahsoka's headpiece as the baby's blanket. There's so much detailed work here that it would be impossible to comment on it all. SUPERB

The level of detail is amazing, and the unusual techniques are even more amazing. Truly mind-blowing.

I just realized the blue ninja wrap, is that a non-production part or an upcoming piece from Prince of Persia?

I admire your patience in using that wall technique. Bravo, sir.

great job! the plates give it an interesting look that is unique from bricks built castles. i really like it. and great job on building an arabian style castle!

There are many incredible little details throughout this creation. You demonstrate excellent use of pieces on the onions, the baby swaddle, etc. The entire creation is simply, um….wait a minute, is that parrot pink? Great work.

Always like to see some castle stuff which doesn't look too classical. colours and shapes are very special.

The colors, the composition, the form of the walls, all terrific! Nicely done and a fun creation!

Awesome! i bet you could use this for a Cthulego bit anytime. and the bit with the baby was funny.

Brilliant piece of work. And it looks funny with all those plates and round studs. Keep up the good work.

High points for originality, higher points for level of detail. So many African/American figs! I have three from an NBA set and that's it. Anyway, best of luck ~H

Mark, this one is a real stunner. Your technique always amazes me. Your photos show every possible angle and all of your little scenes. Work like this is so inspiring. Regards, Eric.

Very nice technique work throughout the build...and some great ideas-turnips/and the baby cloth thingy Great build!

Wow - what a way-cool castle! The entire scene is very cool, even. Nice work!

Amazing! The castle itself is fantastic, but the all the little details are great too! The mass of plates that you own is what really amazes me though. *continues drooling with envy*
