Another entry to Classic-Castle’s Colossal Contest, busboy489’s Castle Hadrian is so full of rich detail that it’s difficult to begin to point them out. There’s the drawbridge, the lovely tree in the lower corner, the wall detailing, the interesting architecture and angles…I’d say just go ahead and stare at it for a while. You’ll be glad you did.

These guys don’t monkey around…
An entry for Classic-Castle’s Colossal Contest VIII, Mr. Johnathon Gilbert’s creation showcases the hard work and diligence of the Castle Health, Improvement, & Maintenance People (C.H.I.M.P.).
That’s a lot of destruction and havoc to fix up, but I’m quite sure the CHIMPs are up to it.
Silver Lake Fortress
This gorgeous castle, by Brian Corredor, hits all the high notes. I could live in this place.
Many thanks to Bruce for pointing it out and editing the main picture.
Mega Knight is Mega Huge
Eric Harshbarger had made a Mega-MiniFig and I want it. However, this was a commission piece built for a toy store in Connecticut and they won’t let me even borrow it. But what a thing of beauty! Standing about 5 feet tall and using nearly 20,000 bricks, this fig is standing tall and living large.
Welcome to Dracula’s castle
Mark Kelso (Amhakia) shares with us his vision of Dracula’s castle inspired by the classic black and white horror films. One of the standout features of this shot has got to be the visible rays of light piercing through the window. The interior is disheveled without being messy.
The Magic Shop
Takeshi Itou is an incredible Castle builder. One of the best. His latest creation is simply overflowing with whimsy and charm.
The Lost Castle
This marvelous creation by zgreenz on Brickshelf has too many rich details and techniques to pass up. There’s so many strokes of genius in such a concentrated space. The bridge and windows are two of my favorites.
Thanks for the tip Tyler!
Village in Microscale
Rod Gillies‘ entry to Classic-Castle’s Mini Castle Contest is simply fantastic. The techniques he uses are wonderful–the Exoforce hair as a deciduous, Technic pins as crops. But what REALLY catches my eye is the mini tudors. They just…work.
Can you put a price on peace?
Luke Watkins’s (– Derfel Cadarn –) latest castle diorama depicts hostile dragon knights storming the houses of the wealthy and demanding payment for peace. As usual, I love the detailed landscape in Luke’s dioramas. This shot below is simply epic, and here’s the overview picture.
