Thanks gents  :)

Got a wall sample done and I must say I'm bloody well pleased with it  :D

It doesn't have any paint on it and it's already looking the part.

Centurion Sebasticus for scale  :)



The choice is whether to cast this or just make it. There's not much in it really.

cheers

Very nice!

Man, I really can't believe how many projects you successfully juggle.

Oh man, another Project to follow from you James!

Like always, you don't start anything small, don't you?  >:D The fort will surely look spectacular, I think you shouldn't decrease the size at all  :D

Dr. The Viking mentioned earlier that the lumberjack must have been a tall fellow... either that or then the trees have been cut down when there has been a meter or so snow  :)

The tree stumps look good and if you are about to build a fort/castle then I am all ears ..... err I mean all eyes

Cheers gents  :)

I'll have to make a longer one if I'm to cast it and also spend a bit more time on finishing it but I think I've been pursueded  lol

Dr. The Viking mentioned earlier that the lumberjack must have been a tall fellow... either that or then the trees have been cut down when there has been a meter or so snow  :)

There is a knot in the trunk so I assumed they would've stood on wooden platforms when cutting it down above the knot  ;)

Should that not be Centurion Sabbatical since he's taken a year out to build his wall? ;)

The wall looks great James.  :D Avoided using individual bricks this time?..

The fort will really look the part. I think it should look fairly imposing, so the scale is spot on in my eye.  :D

That wall piece looks good, James. Now I know who to ask if I should be in need of walls :)

 ;D he's only thought about it for a year, the actual building took about 90 mins  ;)

Avoided using individual bricks this time?..

I did think about it...

But then thought against it  lol

Now I know who to ask if I should be in need of walls :)

Ask away  :)

When the full size one is done it'll show it and the castings here.

cheers

James
