Blue Castle

Post by soccerkid6 »

Built for the "Taste the Rainbow" contest. I was originally going to build a red/dark bley or bley 'brick' castle. But decided that there had been plenty of those done before. So instead I used blue/tan and tried to capture more of a middle eastern feel. It was a bigger challenge than I expected, particularly because I'm not familiar with the pieces I have available to use in blue and tan. I'm not completely satisfied with how the castle turned out, but I do really like the landscape. As always there's a full interior. Credit for the cobble stone design goes to (what)_Tambor.

Great work and a good entry to the contest. Even with the unusual colours you managed to pull it off really well. And you have a great interior! :)

Happy Building,
Sir Valiant~
