Castle ... construction ...

Wall sections cut out from foam board; scribed thin card fixed to bottom part and card section marked out and scribed ready to cut the section roofs.  I also found a couple of suitable gates for the gatehouse.

took some time out to make some sketchy plans of corner towers and gateway....

upright framing added to the wall sections....

walls sections completed and fixed to bases, the basic structure of the lower part of the towers has been finished...

The gateway section... with temporary fixings for the gates...

The access ramp and  a small bridge.... with all sections in place - starting to look the part ....

Final fitting of the gates....

base for gatehouse top ...

next stage.... card walls and roof -  made using Wills tiles (spare bits leftover ...)

Framing finished ....

In place with access ramp ....

Started filling in the framing on the bottom of the corner towers before fitting window bars...

Building up the corner towers .... upper structure...

roofing ....

framing, roof details and finally the windows .. ..

Hoorah ! all the section done and ready for painting ....

While I'm in construction mode, I'll make a couple more buildings which could be a storehouse or barracks but which will double up for use in towns and villages.
