Would you let me know what are the dimensions of the walls, bastions to make me an idea of the size of the fortress? thank you in advanceAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02363932641965766213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3071854826133661871.post-34954812012997409892014-07-19T09:42:54.403-07:002014-07-19T09:42:54.403-07:00Yes the expanded polystyrene is quite dense and a ...Yes the expanded polystyrene is quite dense and a pain to cut accuratley with a knife but I imagine much better suited to this sort of conversion than your plastic ones.Ernyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06106035249657749275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3071854826133661871.post-80248000652963402502014-07-19T09:19:00.981-07:002014-07-19T09:19:00.981-07:00Looking really good!

One thing, the plastic castle does not have the material in the walls, so I have to recreate anything I want in there. Thinking foam inside and then rubble-ize it, any better ideas? Can't wait for part 3!Kaleb Hordeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18279279669165070169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3071854826133661871.post-75311543536306924862014-07-16T06:59:58.324-07:002014-07-16T06:59:58.324-07:00Somehow I missed that I do indeed have four boxes ...Somehow I missed that I do indeed have four boxes of mighty fortresses in my garage so there is a good chance I'll have a spare gate.

I had never thought of using the gate wall section but it just makes sense!<br /><br />BlueBlue in VThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16420605978612894112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3071854826133661871.post-30965703855699087462014-07-14T02:11:11.408-07:002014-07-14T02:11:11.408-07:00Nice work on the breached wall.Nice work on the breached wall.stonecoldleadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06561266165773076600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3071854826133661871.post-59384772661339699112014-07-13T17:15:51.014-07:002014-07-13T17:15:51.014-07:00It's looking good Erny!
The only criticism I ...It's looking good Erny!<br /><br />The only criticism I would make about it is that the smooth angle you've cut the upper parts of the breach at doesn't look natural. Maybe cut it jagged & at 90° so it will look like the stone's have collapsed out of place?<br /><br />Don't get me wrong, I think it looks fantastic! The rubble, the base & the lower section all do it for me.<br /><br />Just realised that this is a WIP. You were probably gunna to do that anyway :)<br /><br />Cheers.Mr Papafakishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449586265828153638noreply@blogger.com
