My second castleish thing, because the last one sank into the swamp.

About this creation

My personal favourite detail is the Slovene flag. Wich detail is your favourite?

The fort and the sinking tower are built fully in five angles, wich comes from the pentagram. This was made possible with the invention of a new round tower technique, using round bricks and macaroni pieces. Measuring 6x6, this technique is the missing link between macaroni round tower (measuring 4x4) and the 1x2+round brick tower (measuring aproximately 8x8). It is free to use, no credit or links required, the only thing you need to do (and it's not hard) is to reverse engineer it. Sadly this technique only works for five angles.

This time, there's two cats to find!

High and low shots...

The tower(s). I actually managed to fill in almost all of the gaps!

This next picture is my desktop image!

Tree close-ups.

And the mushrooms.

Bonus module, it's used for decreased aesthetics and increased realism!

It actually comes in there.

And all the minifigures featured in the creation.

Quite a detailed scene! Things like the crumbling tower and mushrooms complete it.

Quoting Adam L. Where do the guards sleep? Just my opinion.

Theoreticaly there's room for a double levle bed in the small roomish thing, but I didn't make any interior.

I've seen quite a few small-ish castles, but this one is the smallest one I've seen. Like, there is no rooms or anything in it really. except for the really small one. Where do the guards sleep? Just my opinion.

Quoting Adam L. Trees are cool, sunken tower is sweet, rest is meh. The transition from dark gray and light gray is kinda annoying. It would look better with one main color, and then the other fanned out across it. the brown tiles for the walkway have to many gaps, and it looks odd. Although you probably can't fix that. Also, that's the smallest castle I've ever seen...Seriously, even if it's a watch tower. All in all it's pretty good I guess, not good enough to get a 4 heads though.

Actually, if I used "one main colour", the outpost would not blend in with its environment. I was kind of going for the wet look. I guess next time I won't be going for realism again, it seems to clash with the aesthetic effect. The last part however, I don't understand. How many MOCs have you seen that you know this one as the smallest?

Too many studs. Way too many studs. Good work on the trees though. ;)

The castle/outpost thing is great but you lack enough trees to give it the swampy feeling that you need. Especially if you are going to have all you ground totally flat and even.
