Hey all,

Check out this Hogwarts by Tohst:

I particularly like this spiral staircase running along the interior of the main tower:

It's been a while since I've seen one of the movies, but this looks spectacular! :twitch: I love all the great textures in it. I'm a little disappointed though because there's nothing else really to look at or "details". No trees, just tan, blue, green, etc. Kinda bland. But the architecture blows me away. It would be nice to see a little more...I don't know... figs or trees perhaps? Just an idea...Anyway, still looks great! Nice job Tohst!

Forestboy, Thanks for the kind words.

And yes, I know. :) I've built a whole lot of interiors for this puppy...and didn't like any of them. You should see the to do list.

But you're right, maybe I'll try to take a few pictures as-is with some mini-figs loitering to liven up the old place.

Thanks!

I must say, this is certainly my favourite rendition of Hogwarts ever, as not only is the the build excellent, but you've clearly been imaginative and added some of your own designs for certain aspects of the castle and grounds, rather than just copy the films' interpretation of Hogwarts. Love it!

I saw this in the Window into the Community at the new LEGO store in Orland Park and was impressed. I think some more landscaping and interior work would make it even better, but the architecture is great. I love the roof on the big round tower. :D
...and that's how Equestria was made!
