Quick Tips on How to Make Your Lego Castle Really Stand Out

The first thing that might be tempted to when you buy a Lego Castle Set, is that you want to make really big so that your work to be seen as grandeur – something similar to the size of the Taj Mahal in India! We’re kidding, of course. But to many of us, we believe that making an extra large-scale model is the only way to make our castles really stand out. That’s simply not true. Even if you use big Lego Blocks, and create a Lego castle that rivals the Windsor Castle in the UK, your piece may not get the notice that the small ones do. Here are some tips on how the more experienced builders are able to make some really outstanding Lego castles.

1. Concentrate on detail as opposed to size. The challenge here is to build it with accuracy and to size it down without giving up the definitive touches that make it recognizable. Always try to include any possible flaws or faults in the architecture itself. Many Lego castle builders use irregular lines as a method to show where parts of the castle may be crumbling or collapsing in present times. Or you can give it a dramatic flair, maybe even showing the different building stages as an interpretation of the fortress during its actual construction. A good idea here would be to add scaffolding complete with workers. Simply using different colored Lego Bricks in the castle facade can be seen as the weathering of the actual bricks of the building itself. This would also help breakup the lines of the castle, making it more realistic looking.

2. Landscaping is also important, both within the Castle Walls and outside the building. Depending on the detail of your project, landscaping can be a crucial part of the entire presentation. This is even more evident with the construction of castles on mountain ranges or those surrounded by forests. Even small touches such as a small pathway lined with trees, or a small patch of garden within the castle walls can be considered as landscaping. Assuredly, presenting flora with Lego bricks is challenging enough. Making it fit the scale of a miniature castle can be even harder. This is where the fun is and when the creative juices get to flowing.

3. Look to your castle borders. Castle owners during the medieval age were obliged to look to their borders, and oversee everything and everyone in their dominion. That includes their land holdings as well as the people and their living accommodations.  So, if you really want to present a realistic and dramatic piece, it might be a great idea to include a Castle City complete with it’s own small buildings. Merchants would be hawking their wares, and travelers with horse pulled carts would be in evidence. Of course, having a drawbridge and moat is a must! There could be a body of water nearby such as streams and ponds or even a lake as would be the case of water castle. These little touches make your Lego Castle Set worth a long, appreciative look

Answer this question …?

Tasty purple Lego construction sites, full of energy marsupials? Why not Ice Cream! I forgot to mention the greed of the nearby clouds causing terrible wooden spoons to collapse under their eggplant

OMG! I was thinking the same thing! But then I restrained. I am glad that Cahun had to ask it, however. I shall hold my breath until an adequate response is before us.
