1- 27 in 13 more days... yay me...
2- Crusaders and Black Falcons
3- Yep, but it's taking me a rather long time to get my stories and models
together. =(
4- I really don't have a favorite, they're all so good. =)
5- See answer #4
6- Knights Procession way back in the day when I was a kid.
7- 50%
8- The basic Black Falcon guy, I suppose.
9- The coolest castle MOC I've built is more fantasy than historical. I built
those mushroom houses that were at Brickfest and I'll be putting them into my
CW stories when I get the chance. I've also built an airship that uses a lot
of technic parts, it was built for the fantasy CW world though, I really don't
know if it can be considered 'Castle'.
10- I haven't done anything too drastic to my castle minifigs, I'd be afraid I
would hurt them and they wouldn't forgive me. =)

Those mushroom houses were yours? Wow! Those were incredible! I loved the
detail that you put into the interiors, and the touches on the outside, like
the small mushroom patch, and I think you also had a small pond or fountain
with a trans-dark blue plate for water... Did you also do the house on
chicken legs? That was also fantastic!

Were these Smurf houses? That reminds me that when the Smurf show was on tv
in the 80s, my sister used my legos to build a smurf village for her little
blue figures, and her mushroom houses turned out really cool, too! Do you have
any pics?

I've just put up a few pics of them at http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-
bin/gallery.cgi?f=896 but there are better pics at

I'll be working them into my CW stuff one day... =)

Yep, that was mine too. =) I built that the night before Brickfest and I was
really hurting for brown 1x1 cylinders, 1x2 and 1x4 brown 'log' bricks so I
had to run over to a friend's house and borrow a few. =) I'm glad I have nice
friends. =)
