Built for the Return of the G.O.A.T. contest on classic-castle which paired nicely with the Annual Challenge here. I chose to re-imagine set 6078 and had fun putting my own twist on the recognizable structure. My rendition features ladders or stairs to reach every area of the gatehouse, along with a functional drawbridge. The two hidden spaces under ramps at front and back are also there, though I added some barred gates under the front ramp so minifigures have access to that storage area. The rear one contains a hidden nook where some unfortunate soul seems to have been on the wrong end of a magical scroll.
Special thanks to Rolli for loaning me the original minifigures!
