Great work as usual MTL! :D Your version looks better than the original IMO, since it is more detailed and realistic-looking.

Well done! The re-imagining is quite good, but my favorite bit is the inclusion of the wall panels behind the arches on the outside of the wall! Lovely.

I love it! I like the bulk wall pieces hidden underneath the arches, it looks great!

Very impressive conversion, and it works so much better in LEGO in my opinion. Great build

I think this MOC is a wonderful idea with excellent execution. My problem always tends to be over-ambitious plans that lead to poor execution. I think I need to build something like this: not too big, but lots of detail and care and elegance. Even the castle-wall pieces look good; they're often a cop-out but here they are well used. Good work.
