Many, Many, Minifigures!

There have been so many different minifigures inside the castle theme. To name a few Cedric the bull, Royal Knights, Lion Knights, Lord Vladek, Shadow Knights, and Warrior's of Bone. This is a picture of some of my minifigures that are in the castle theme. In this picture, there is also some LEGO minifigures of the separate series of minifgures, like the viking. Other minifgures are created by mixing the different people toghether. Like how I made a troll ( by mixing with cave woman's club, Frankenstein head, and a elf's body). These are only some of my LEGO castle people.

What Makes a LEGO Castle Good?














There are many things that cause the difference between good castles and bad castles. Good castles have many techniques used, some techniques are Micro scale, brick-built rocks, invisible bricks, terracing, and many, many many more. A good castle usually uses about two or three techniques on average, but castles can include as many as you feel are needed. Also, a good castle needs detail, consider adding one of the following, drawbridge, village, farm, animals, blacksmith, vegetation, or rocks. Castles come in both big and small, so even if you have few LEGOs you still can build a castle. The castle in the picture I built using three different techniques, Micro scale, brick-built rocks, and vegetation.

My LEGO Castle


My LEGO castle is right now under construction, it was a remodeled King's Castle Siege, with the Drawbridge Defense in the place where the entry gate was. Now, the castle has gotten at least twice as big over the years. I have also been able to make many, many, many more castles than just one. I have most of the new Kingdoms, and even some old castle sets, and quite a few remodeled sets. My castle is not like the picture, the picture is just one of my first castle sets ever. The picture above is King's Castle Siege. I suppose you don't want to hear me talk about my castles but what you can do to make yours even better!
