Halhi141 gave me several ideas for this build, including the &#8216;mirror&#8217;. This build is based off of the real Chillon Castle from Switzerland, in particular this section: <a href=\"http:\/\/brickbuilt.org\/Castle\/2015\/Chillon\/small.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[1266]\">Chillon Castle<\/a> It&#8217;s the first castle I&#8217;ve done that is pretty realistically scaled. On the first floor is an armory, and on the second floor is Lord Chillon&#8217;s room.<br \/>\nThe layout was rather challenging, as were the roofs, but I&#8217;m pleased with the final result. The thick walls let me use some new window and arrow slit designs. I experimented a bit more with my SNOT wall design, as the tower gradually gets thinner. The bartizan (overhanging corner turret) is my first, and I&#8217;ll probably be doing lots more of those in the future.<\/p>\n<p>The Chillon family has always been respected in Guaire, and their castle is admired by all. Upon hearing that he needed to infiltrate a lord&#8217;s castle, Dedan decided on the Chillon Castle as he knew it would provide a real challenge.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style
