Just add "http://" to the front end:

Some very nice work in there. Some of the joints between wall sections could have been a little neater, but the overall look is great and very "great-gamey".

Dang it, why'd I open this thread!?  Now I have to get back to work on my castle project when I'm trying to focus on my wild west town.  :-[ lol

That is a nice looking conversion job you've done there.

I'm alway careful about buying plastic model buildings due to scale issue but that castle looks fine for 28mm (Unless your using smaller scale figures not the one true scale!) lol

Foundry figures!
 using the blue foam allows you a bit of scope with the height of the parapet against the figures.

Great looking conversion, and a fine castle. 
Very small chance your gaming partners will know that Khivan walls are mud-brick rather than stone. 
I really love your work, and your blog.

Multi purpose Chick castle will move west in near future! if you google Khiva you get some great pics of the city they call a museum.
