Wonderful piece of terrain. Every bit as good as the one the Perry twins did for that doco.

thank you for your encouragement. I have plenty of other projects in mind which I intend to make you enjoy it, especially now that I have a little literature (since I bought the book: British forts in the Age of Arthur) but I have an inclination to Tintagel, but my wife disagrees) she said there was not enough room. Oh women! pffff

I understand this issue  ;)

long ago, I made a very small version (28mm), with cliff and drawbridge etc, but it was still too big for even a car trunk.

I love your treatment of the wooden surfaces. Why don't wives understand how lucky they are to have such a work of art to display in the dining room?!?  ;D

I can not really blame my wife, I think there are already handling all miniature rooms in the house ... or something related to it. and she leaves a great deal of freedom, and patiently listens to me when I explain why and how (even if it does not matter) lol lol

She's reading over your shoulder, isn't she?  lol I completely understand. My wife is similarly understanding and encouraging, but she also has her limits. My large Norman motte and bailey castle lives in a dark corner of the basement instead of being proudly displayed in the living room. :'(

Go ahead and build Tintagel - tell her she can decorate it. That might appease the dragon lol lol lol
