Here's my entry. It's not the most amazing castle I could imagine building but as I'm away from home for six months, it is built with my travelling Lego kit (more about that here, if you are interested: http://midlifecrisisgapyear.wordpress.com/2011/05/24/travelling-lego-kit/)

There are tons of photographs in this Flickr grouphttp://www.flickr.com/photos/25270435@N03/sets/72157627999956550/ - I was desperately trying to get a decent photo in my hotel room on a cloudy day.

This castle was originally intended to be used in a larger diorama, but it turned out to be too large. At 5x5 studs, this might say more about the diorama than about the castle.
Image
Putting the castle into a 8x8 vignette, gives some nice context and the ship approaching the castle aids in conveying size.
Image
I guess an LDD model could be considered cheating, but at least all parts are guaranteed to be valid and available from pick-a-brick. See the page on MOC Pages for the LDD file.

klorox, your links aren't working because you copied the text from your other post. I found them there, but if you want you can edit your post for the record.

Athalus, you can post deeplinks (works even before your folder is public) to your pictures: Keep clicking them until you get an address that ends in .jpg, then copy that here.

Boom! I finally finished my entry and just in time. I you have been following along on flickr you will know a bit more about this. My suggestion would be to look at the previous chapters as well as Sean and Steph Mayo's Volume 1. Anyway this is their brain child and it would be worth your while to check their entry.

Alright here she is. This has been a ton of fun for both of us. Be sure to stay tuned for the exciting conclusion, found in Volume 3!
