Averaging the perfect build-time score with the value-per-brick gives an overall value grade of 97%.

This set is a bit unusual in that it has a well rounded and irregular base, which is a stark contrast to the angular bases that I’m used to in the LEGO Architecture series. This requires some care, especially on the side closest to the doorway, as it is difficult to apply 1×1 tiles to the side of a building while holding it awkwardly in the other hand.Our fair maiden could almost be mistaken to belong in a different era, with her torso also being suited to the Wild West.

They were among a small group of craftsmen that no civilisation at the time could have done without. Splashing in the newer lime green tones to inject some colour, as well as using some of the sand-green on the roof to indicate age. The 8th bag is a bit more involved, as it takes some time finish the walls, but also to carefully apply the exposed wooden beams to exposed studs on the exterior. Part of the reason the actual Castle theme hasn't really drawn me in is that ever since my childhood, I've been unimpressed with how much more emphasis they have on siege warfare and military conflicts than on the everyday lifestyles of medieval people. The American Black Bear is native to North America, but there's also an Asian Black Bear (lives mostly in mainland SE Asia), the Sun Bear (lives in SE Asia), the Sloth Bear (lives mostly in India), and the Spectacled Bear (lives in the Andes Mountain range).Outside, we see continued progress on the walls, and the addition of an awning which covers the forge. The architectural details of a 3-level building from the Middle Ages are lovingly recreated in signature LEGO style. Concerning the horse coat, my guess would be that the designers chose that color thinking of the dun coat of some rustic breeds such as the Fjord or the Henson. I'm definitely a fan of the final model and will be picking one up when i see a good gift with purchase or double points offer.
