Nice MOC, especially because of your usage of the dragon/black knights. I am usually a fan of a fortress built on or near a mountain, and the same holds true now. The large entrance to the fortress is probably my favorite part. The combination of light and dark grey bricks works really well there. Furthermore, the large black knight flag waving over part of the MOC is always a thrilling site to see. Nicely done...

My thoughts exactly. It's a very nice piece of work, and I enjoy the large square tower and the battlements as well.

I like the angled wall and the main tower - you really got the good patterning with the different greys. Also, nice tree with roots.

However, I'm not sure what those long vertical slits are in the big square part are...

Very nice. Kinda looks as if it's sliced right out of a larger scene.

Thanks for all your compliments and nice words.

@ smcginnis: Yes it would be great, if I could build it into a bigger scene, but unfortunately I don't have enough bricks.
@ Dharmatoad: those vertical slits are some sort of windows.
