That's incredible! The sheer size of it is amazing, and on top of that, you included a ton of detail! Wonderful work! :D

Absolutely gorgeous. You have perfectly done examples of some of my favorite castle details: Two great bridges (how did you do the wide arch?), "natural" looking rockwork, and intricate half-timbered medieval structures.

Well done!

How did you build that GIGANTIC round tower?

Wow! Very impressive. This moc has it all. Beautiful round towers, stained glass, a waterfall, a brilliant bridge, the rockscaping, and the tree. All of it excellent.
You would rather be building right now.

There are a ton of great details going on here. Your stonework is quite impressive, especially the large bridge and the integration of the round tower-to-square base at the end of that bridge. Really nice cliff and waterfall sculpting as well. The interior courtyards and irregular layout are also quite appealing. I'll be bookmarking this as I'd like to eventually build a castle at this size. The wizard training scene is a great touch too. I love the defensive wall of purple flame.

If you're in the eastern US, any chance you'll be going to Brickfair in August?

:shock: :shock: :shock: The layout on your castle is incredible! Very nice work! I like your stain glass window, and the water up in the castle that flows down the waterfall. Incredible :)
I think your crenelation design is my favorite that I have seen so far. And it uses just basic bricks! Very well done!
Keep up the good work!

Thanks everyone for your kind words. We all know Katie gets the credit for the cheese window :D I am planning to attend BF with my wife and kids for the first time this year- not sure if I will have time to be an exhibitor. Will you be there?

Oh wow! That will be cool. I will be going. Let me know if you are going to be an exhibitor, there is a tentative castle collab in the making.

Oh yeah, I will be there. Like Blake said ^, there's a slowly forming collaborative display for castle this year. This would make a most excellent addition.
