Building a Medieval Castle Miniature from Scratch

Post by ivangouveia » Wed Sep 05, 2012 1:54 pm

Hello everyone! I am glad to be here.
I am building a medieval castle miniature from scratch and wanted to share it with you. If I can have your opinion about it, certainly I can better my project or make a better one the next time. I am not born under the English language, so, my apology for the mistakes.

Here are some pictures of what I have already done.

barr7430, thank you very much.
It is all done from scratch. In my site there is a step by step of this castle. The project is still far from the end.

Ivan,

I have just looked through your blog and that is amazing. Please keep contributing pictures so we can all see it when it's finished.

Several days passed since I had time for the castle, but I am planning to resume the project next week.

Utterly Splendid so much so I have reposted a link to your blog to inspire the locals as morale raising beatings seem not to be working any more.

yar68, Thank you very much.

"I am planning to resume the project next week" - I said. There is still much work to do and little time for the hobby. Anyway, I am making the doors and the moat. Hope to post something soon.
