Seems like your missing a piece in one of the corners :D . A placeholder for a ladder perhaps?

It looks like your a little short on pieces there. :wink: .
I remember those days. I would say since your short on pieces, try building even small! ( i know it must be hard.) I would also not take the picture on asfault. (not sure how to spell it.) I know how hard it is to only have a few legos. Try buying some more. A small cheap set or two.

I dunno, it seems a bit...unfinished. Maybe if you added some nifty detail, or clever technique, or even made the walls higher. As it is, it looks like a great starting point for something a bit more elaborate, or a generic platform on which you can demonstrate neat ideas. I know you're squeezed for parts, but just looking at the figs makes me suspect that you have enough for something a bit bigger.

There are no windows? How do the knights see if any enemy soldiers are approaching. :?:

I guess the battlements on the top solve that for the most part.

This is not a very good MOC. I mean, its only about 7 pieces (excluding the minifigures) that look like they were roughly slapped together... Not to mention none of the minifigures even have any headgear... Not to mention that is looks laughably unrealistic...

skilzz1, it is looking good, for a start. However, it is a long way from being a finished MOC. What I suggest is get a fourth leg, and make it a little bigger. Then add a big baseplate on the bottom. From there, use you imagination. I look forward to seeing a finished version of this.

Make sure to add detail, and have it be less skimpy. Design is key!
