Title: Windsor Castle 1085
Post by: besilarius on January 22, 2020, 07:48:57 AM
Archeologists have reconstructed Windsor Castle from construction and then two major expansions.
This should be of great interest to miniaturists and to castle builders in various games.

The article notes that a later expansion included a roof being "cunningly" painted to appear to be stone.
Do we detect the dab hand of Bawb at work?

No, but if you look you can see that the artist actually included Bob's hut in the drawing.
