Hi everyone

I'm not a raging castle head, but my friend Lorax and I were inspired to make some entries for the Classic Castle contest. Here is an entry for the bridges category (for what is more important than building bridges?)

Thankyou for looking

This category is starting out with a bang! I'll have a lot of competition.

This one looks great; I was actually planning to steal that rock technique from one of Sir Nelson's entries last year. I love the cutaway to the secret chamber.

I have seen this style of building used on a wall before. This is most excellent, looks like I have some good competition as well.

Looks great! Nice technique on the stone work.

Wow. Looks like the Bridge Category is going to have some serious competition. I like the bridge technique and the secret room. My only problem is that the water looks a little, well, stiff. Besides that, great moc. Keep up the good work!

Some great stonework here, I like the overall look here. The landscaping is done well and the posing is good too.

The bridge category sure has some great competition, I can't wait for the judging!

Very cool, as already said my favs are the stonework on the bridge (although I do remember something similar by Sir Nelson from a previous CCC that Bruce kindly linked), the secret chamber and the buried skeleton. Once again - very cool

I hadn't seen similar stonework before, but I guess nothing is truly original. It's a little scary seeing how good the previous years winners were though

Nice technique on the arch! Gives the whole bridge a strong look. That well up there looks nicely detailed as well

So true... I prefer to look at it as, "Great minds think alike"

This is a great MOC! I love the brick-look with the long slopes. The burial with skeleton, the "white water" in the stream, and the trees are wonderful details. Who can resist a secret chamber? Top marks.

Welcome to CC! Nice way to intro yourself.

I really like the way you did the bridge. It really gives it a feesh feeling, like it had just been built, as opposed to old and weathered down. Good luck!

I love your bridge design!
That looks spectacular, especially from a distance.
That's probably one of the most unique lego bridges I've seen in a long time.

Good luck on the contest.
