No i used these pieces on top of each other. Ben Ellerman has written an article about that technique somewhere on CC, but i can't find it right now.How did you make the bottom of the castle where it touches the ground by the water. It is so incredible looking and I can not figure it out for the life of me and I have been staring at your flickr and brickshelf trying to figure it out. Simply in awe. Is it a million jump plates?
Yeah, I know it would look much better in brown, but i don't have any brown hinges...It`s very good entry. The trebuchet is the best part, but in brown it will looks better (black is not a good colour for pictures). Castle is also very well done. I know that is size limitation but it looks little strange that trebuchet is so very close to the castle walls. But the size limit, the size limit...
Anyway it`s very good and looks interesting.
I have uploaded more pictures of the siege HERE
