I like the stone pattern at the bottom. I cant wait to see your wall with a sewer grate. Maybe a destroyed/breached wall section next? Or a main gate section.

Great stuff!!!

Yes, I should have mentioned that. The sewer will definitely be twinned with a destroyed version.

A main gate is essential to complete the castle. The sections should also be suitable for a non-Helm's Deep fantasy castle. It would be up to personal preference whether they can be used for a historical one.

That sounds great. A set that can be used in several different ways. Awesome.

Might I suggest that a full octagonal tower (à la Caernarvon) would be of assistance to anyone not wedded to fantasy?

Actually, that might be a fine solution for Helm Deep's central keep.

Also, with this model you can (if you don't mind) stand (balance) bases on the side walls.

You could sit them on top but the curved nature of the bridge suggests they will slide - and it looks naff.

No billy goats or trolls but at Falkirk's Carronade show today Leon successfully marched a Warband base (100mm x 50mm) over the 10mm bridge.

Excellent!   

Brilliant

Stonking.......Again !!

What those two said !

Thanks, again!

I've designed a possible gateway.








The emblems can be changed. A horse for Helm's Deep may be more appropriate but those Numenoreans or Gondor guys may have left their mark.

So far, the tower and the wall sections have been designed to accommodate two bases each. The gateway can accommodate two bases as well. One base at the battlements above the gate and another in the room below where boiling oil and hot sand can be thrown down on any attackers (there is an available gap in the floor). It's possible that I may lower the floor of this room significantly so that a troop base can actually be placed in the room (from the rear).

Very, very impressive. I can see the walls flying off the shelves.

Good grief !

Wow...yep time to get saving

The look fantastic.

I had been vaguely thinking about scratch building some castle walls, but these look a lot better and an easier option.

How long are the basic wall sections going to be? You have mentioned 2 bases, but not sure if this is in relation to  all sections are just these. Being able to fit 3 x 40mm bases on a wall section may be good?

Marvellous Michael
