I decided to buy some Mage Knight castle parts to use as a dwarven Holt in a few Warhammer Fantasy Battles. link Tom |

I think the local shop in town has a few of those on the shelf. |

Very nice. I have that castle. it looks great BEFORE painting it, and what you did seriously improved on it |

Thanks to all! They were not ugly or anything, just did not go with my terrain I had. So I repainted them to match better. I like the castle though, and I am desperately trying to stay away from buying more
haha. Tom |

Well done sir – I agree with BigNickR – I always liked the look out of the box – but your efforts made it much better |

Because of the relief on the walls and towers, as well as the style, I bought some with plans to repaint as high elf fantasy castles using mostly cleaner whites; I also thought they could be painted in dark colors with reds and then decorated up with skulls, etc., to be dark elf castles. |

Tom--also, how did you prime or not prime the castles when you painted? |

I hand painted them charcoal black, then dry brushed them with khaki first, then with a light grey, and then finally with some white. I taped all the doors off, but dry brushed them with some khaki, and light grey. I have also thought of them being used for dark elf as well. But if you kept them the way they are, they would be great for high Elf as well. I have alot of building that I can use for High Elf already, so I painted these up. Tom |

Nice; I have a fair collection of this stuff too but I could use another plain wall set or two. |
