Gatehouses
Firstly I've tweaked my more 18C look gatehouse to add more timbering on the top section and provide it with a gate
My other gatehouse is nominally earlier in date but can do service for the 18C, however it is based on a toy and needed some work
ok from the front, but round the back ... the hanging turrets are more obvious
so made the following improvements
- filled in the missing part of the turrets with cardboard
- made a guard room either side at the bottom
- added a new road surface
- used some printed stone paper to cover up the cardboard
- printed some images for windows and doors and applied them as needed
Walls
The wall sections I use are reasonable from the front, but the fudge up I did on the first build is apparent from the back
so I've added a back supporting wall to all the pieces using cardboard, still need to print and stick on the stone paper for them..
in addition I'm working on a breached section

Very ingenious ! , Tony
Impressive work on these useful items to make them even usefuller! The castle gate tower looks great!
Great work..... I like the way you return to old items and continually improve them. Most commendable.
Excellent Conversions- you have indeed a great imagination.
Neat! Very neat, it's amazing what you can make out of an old kiddies toy.
Best wishes, Brian
