      Your castle looks great! :) Your son has designed it well ! The exterior design is well done. It looks good how he has done the moat surrounding the castle , with the stone paved bridge over the top linking and leading through the archway to the courtyard. Great fencing around the coop , and servants collecting eggs and gardening from the nearby garden would be a common activity in medieval times. Great area to have the garden/coop in the right hand side outdoors nook area of the lot., and the stable set up for horses in the left hand side nook area. Great setting up of the throne /hall room! The colours and furnishings he has used looks good! The long narrow carpet leading down the middle of the hall is great both in colour and how you have laid it down, and it looks very effective how he has used the same colours for alternate chairs and for the strips down the middle of the tables. It is great that he has carried the royal colour scheme throughout all the rooms. It has a good flowing on effect, and emphasizes the royalty feel of the build. Great use of the pillars through the build. I don't like the sight of that skeleton in the dungeon ! Great placing of it though! Great designing to set up a servant's quarters. The entertainment hall looks good and I can imagine royals having musicians in to play the instruments for them, whilst they sat listening on the seats, had a drink from the bar, and were warmed by the firepit there. Good furnishing and colours of the bedrooms. Great layout of the levels of the castle, and including a cellar and a dungeon. The setting out of the rooms/areas of the build is great. It is a well designed castle!

      Hello Jimil :) This is not an actual Skyrim castle, however, he has taken ideas from Skyrim. The Dining Hall was inspired by Dragonsreach in Whiterun :)

      Hello rosemow :) Thank you for your kind words of praise and your positive feedback - you are a sweetheart *huge hugs* I have entered this lot in gr1zzly's Castle building contest :) My Son has never won nor even placed in a build contest as yet, but I have my fingers crossed for him this time :)

      kateoverend, your son did an awesome job! It may be a small detail - but the wheelbarrow in the front, I think really adds that extra little Skyrim-esque touch!
