LEGO Bricklink: Mountain Fortress

Description "The Black Falcon used to be a powerful baron of the Old Kingdom. After the Lion Knights took over the realm, the arrangement was made for Black Falcon's daughter, Kunegunde, to marry the king. However, when the baron fell in a joust, these plans came to naught and the king married another baroness. But Kunegunde decided to take matters in her own hands... A few years ago, together with her younger sister, who was a royal falconer, Kunegunde managed to covertly organize an abduction of the king when he was on a hunting trip. Now the king is being secretly held in a remote and inaccessible mountain fortress, while Kunegunde is readying for a winter campaign against the queen." *** What makes this mighty fortress design stand out is its harsh winter scenery, including snow caps and icicles. It consists of a lower and upper castle, connected by a drawbridge, which spans a frozen moat. The build is quite large in size and uses just shy of the maximum allowed 4000 pieces. The building is foldable and contains removable sections to allow for an easy access to all parts of the interior. Greebling and texturing is used with moderation. The construction process should not be a big challenge but even advanced builders will find some nice and unexpected details and techniques, including the use of Technic pieces in both structural and decorative roles. 9 Minifigures included.
