Coming along nicely

Geoff. Nice job. You can tell it's a big model by the amount of strengthening pieces they have included.
Going to look nice when finished.

Geoff what do you do with them once you have them built?

They are displayed around the house in various rooms. For example, Cinderella Castle lives on the dining room sideboard, various Architect models are in the Conservatory and so on

Coming along nicely now... great idea putting the pieces in large dishes...I would have them scattered all over the table!

OK people. It's been a LOOOOOOONG weekend. Being at parties until 4 a.m. doesn't help.
So today I managed to grab an hour.

End window finishes off all of the Bag 2 group.

So onto the bags numbered 3.
More monarchs get added:

And more windows - never realised Parliament had so many!

The back wall continues to rise - and more windows!

More monarchs. More windows:

And bricks added at 45 degree angle:

207 more bricks and 1 hour..

Totals: 5 1/2 hours. Total bricks: 1323

Geoff all those windows must be a pane! Sorry best I can do.

Coming along now. Better than the one in the Lego shop here that I sent you a picture of earlier with its bent tower!
