An other castle made after the family photo and a tower

(http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/3429/dscn1478y.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/23/dscn1478y.jpg/)

The tower :

The roof is not small as you can see :

And to finish, let's have some imagination with proud knights in action... :)

That's all for the moment but i'm actually making a stable to complete my collection and 300+ miniatures are on the workbench with Perry Miniatures, FireForge and others...

Wow! That is a great, in fact an awesome, collection.

I wish I had the focus to concentrate on a single project to that degree!

I assume your castles are scratch builds - either way they are stunning!

What a fantastic collection! My son is green with envy as he is a Bretonnian player an dis slowly building his own army. This will surely inspire him to greater efforts.

Hi all,

thanks everyone for comments.

I know it's pretty impressive, but it's not over, i'll make soon more castle and i think a city ! because i had to give a roof for my 300 or 400 people who are not painted yet !

yes it's a little problem, even more if you have a wife ;)

As i said,, i'll make soon a medieval stable, but i had to finish an Helm's Deep before (you can see progress in "Workbench") :p
And tomorrow, i'll post in "Workbench" too how i made the castles.

Some pictures of a tower

We can imagine this tower on a coast to watch the sea, or simply in a mountain.

As a fellow styrofoam sculptor I salute you. You have amassed some excellent buildings in your collection. I particularly like your attention to architectural detail and use of different coloured stonework for decorative effect.  I bet you get asked the same question I do. 'Where do you put them all?'  lol :D

The castles are certainly nice....bur I'm more impressed with your Brets!  Nice collection and great to see them all painted!

Another amazing build.
I also rather like the third, smaller one. I might base a fortified manor for my English on it.
