Moexy Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Greetings fellow LEGO enthusiasts! I wish some input in a search for a realistic castle MOC that, so far, has been unfruitful. After scouring rebrickable, MOC’s Market and Google, I found only one semi realistic castle : https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-68151/SleeplessNight/lions-castle/#photos The only remarks I have on this one is that for a smaller castle the ornaments are to decorate and it only has curtain walls. To give an idea of what I consider as a realistic looking castle, is the ‘Castle Blaustein’ from Bluebrixx. Except for the small dimensions of the different sections, this is the kind of castle I am really looking for: fantastic floor plan, angular parts, rock work, different heights, wooden structures, .... As I am not so great in creating beautiful/realistic looking castles myself, I am in search for instructions to build one. Do you have perhaps come across other castles/keeps/fortresses that have semi realistic looking floor plans? Or is it an idea to contact the local LUG to see if there are some members who can create projects on commission? I am very grateful for any input or ideas! Thanks in advance. Quote

Thank you for the suggestion! It looks like a nice build, but it is rather small to act as a realistic castle. The ‘Mountain Fortress’ (https://www.bricklink.com/v3/designer-program/series-1/482/Mountain-Fortress) from the BrickLink designer program looks good as well, but the proportions are off compared to a realistic tower/fortification.

Sebbl Posted November 1, 2023 Posted November 1, 2023 It's no Blaustein, but this is a reconstruction of Rodenstein castle that EvilMedival and I built from 2x 10305. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-162503 https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-162602 Quote
