Lion Knights’ Fortress in the Sea I am happy to be able to share my first castle MOC of 2024, Lion Knights’ Fortress in the Sea. Here are some stats on the build: - Pieces: approx. 2,823 - Unique colours: 11 - Footprint: 32 x 32 baseplate - Inspirations: Brother Steven’s Rosewood Hall for the shape, classic Lego castles like 6086 and 6090-1 for the colour schemes - Process: built in Studio first then in physical bricks Thank you for looking!

Thanks for your considered feedback Feur Zug . Vines are something I will have to be brave and try on my castles at some point.

Old MOC's in new colour schemes. The first, Knights of Clubs' Castle, is a recolour of Candlebark Castle. The second, Forestmen's Fortress, is a recolour of Wizard's Spire.

Here are some pieces which I have seen added recently which could be helpful for castle building: WINDOW FRAME 1X2X2 2/3 in black (currently OOS) here PYRAMID BRICK 2X2X2/73° in sand green here NOSE CONE 2X2X2 in medium nougat (currently OOS) here BEAR, NO. 7 (polar bear) here BEAR, NO. 6 (baby polar bear) here If you are into building classic castle roofs, the pyramid brick and nose cone are useful for capping off the ROOF TILE CORNER 2X2X3/73° slope bricks here Sheps

Really nicely done! A great contribution to the Middle Eastern MOC’s that exist. Sheps

Really neat build in true classic castle style, I think it looks great! My only critique would be the choice of the colour reddish brown instead of black for the main keep. Sheps

Well done, great architecture! You've pulled off quite a garish colour scheme, which works with the Eastern/Asian style .

Thanks heaps Boindil Lego! Thanks a lot Sander1992! Thank you Lego Train 12 Volts, much appreciated Thanks the Undo! I agree - I like to see pagoda MOCs as well. You don't see that many, but the ones I have come across have all been pretty top notch. Thanks Jeff of Clubs, glad you like it!

I'm happy to be able to share my latest medieval MOC, Dragon Fortress Pagoda. The colour scheme draws inspiration from 7419: Dragon Fortress, while the structure is based off Ayrlego's Lotii Pagoda. I have built a similar structured Pagoda in the past but was keen to try a new colour scheme, tiled roofs, and add a little flora.

Thanks a lot Horation . I will build more castle stuff before the end of the year, some of which might be able to complement this castle.

Thanks for the feedback Corydoras . I um'd and ah'd about building the model with the masonry bricks sprinkled in but ultimately chose not to use them. Thanks heaps Monty Matte! Classis Castle style was the look I was going for .

Thanks Powder Monkey

Thanks Feur Zug, appreciated!
