Well finally a little rest payed off!! I did not take a very detailed photo (i will do shortly), and it is not finished yet, but here is the main gate, or West Gate as I like to call it, for my project!!!
It beards the coat of arms of the king and the banners of the steward and the city guard!! On the left hand, as we see the picture, is the office of the gatekeeper and on the right, the barracks of the gate guard...

Awsome West Gate Wolf Knight!!!
It looks really good, I can't wait to see it attatched to the rest of the city.

One day I will build a large steck city and fill it a bit like Wolf Knight's...
Attatching houses to the sides of the city with only a few twords the middle,
Giving lots of room for fighting! ;D
Steck is BACK! <:>

Great gate indeed Wolf Knight. As I am still quite new to Steck I hadn't realized that there were different colors Castle Steck...so not there is even more to look out for.

The coloring can make things look even more interesting. Never enough :-)

Thank you Giorginetto!! Well its a good way to make fortifications stronger and, mind you, there are no civilians in these buildings...

Thank you WoT!! My sourse of inspiration is the Canterbury Westgate! http://www.canterbury.gov.uk/main.cfm?objectid=49

I have spend five years as a student in Cantebury, Kent and I as thrilled by the city's beauty and its medieval history!!!

Here are some pictures attached!! (n the third image you'll see the Westgate Grove...it really reminds my of playmobil medieval houses!!!

Hope to see your work of a steck project soon!!!
