I just brought it from a foam shop.

If u are in Sydney, does the foam shop have a name possibly?

Unfortunately I'm in WA Perth. The foam shop was called Foam Sales, I just found them on the internet.

Thanks for all the encouraging replies.

A quick update

Its kinda coming together now. I need to do the raised walkway around the Keep section, tile the roofs of the buildings and make the upper floors for the keep and gatehouse buildings. Then add the chain for the drawbridge so it works, doors for the doorways and the groundwork. But its slowly getting there.

These are well and truly awful..as always. I couldn't tempt you to build something this awful for me could I? That mot and bailey is so big you could use it for a dog kennel. And you've got a Great Dane. Jeez those Vikings would get a surprise.

Very quick work too..still..all those hand cut tiles to still do....should slow you down a little bit. Now just make sure we have time to thoroughly 'test' the design prior to this beast winging it's way overseas!

Keen to see the progress on the ziggurat as well.

Well done that man.
