I proudly present my first castle creation..... It's for the CCCVII.
so enjoy!
A German/Italian rags-paper mill. The required cellulose fibers were won from worn linen textiles. Rag-and-bone men supplied the paper mills with the raw material. Rags were so desired at times and rare that for them an export ban existed which was also put through by force of arms. In the paper mills rags were cut in scrap, were sometimes washed, submitted to a process of disintigration and, finally fray out, in a stamping mill. The stamping mill was driven with water power.

Re: CCCVII - Rags-paper Mill
I saw this on the submissions page and really liked it. Heck, I even liked it enough to come and leave you a comment.
Landscaping is great. The little details like the vines growing on the walls are nice. In general, this is just an exceptional creation. The only part I'm not so keen on are the slanted tan tiles.
By the way, what color are the walls? (Other than tan)

My life is based on a true story.

Re: CCCVII - Rags-paper Mill
Great MOC. The interior is fantastic. Nice use of the sand green. The detailing on both the interior and exterior is wonderful. Most of all, thanks for the little history lesson. You learn something new everyday.
Lego helps make history fun!
Re: CCCVII - Rags-paper Mill
