Mate, you gotta stop, before I come to your house and blow it up out of sheer envy :twisted:

"it" being Helms Deep, not your house, of course.

Hey mate,

What materials are you using for the walls? are you supporting them with anything (as in the insides of the structures), or are they just the sheets on their own?

i'm using foamboard.. its 0.6cm thick.. well.. its just walls inside it.. nothing much to support it.. its kinda strong for such a material.. even if so.. the walls should be sufficient enough to hold the roof in place =D

Excellent. Did you just obtain that from art/craft supplier? Additionally, how are you treating it so you can paint it? just basecoating with black acrylic?

Although perhaps a little smaller than I would have imagined Helm's Deep being, the design is excellent and the work is very neat. 8)
Can't wait to see more! :)
