EVENT Stellar Castle Progress
Take 2. Made progress and finished the tower. Thinking of adding some greens to cover the messy tower. What do my book nook pals think? The kit is much easier now that the tower is done! Hope this works with the picture this time...

Oh I am sure I am missing pieces on that tower all over the cursed thing. The base is cut and glued together and that is missing pieces, too. I did my best by not throwing the thing out the window at one pint! I pretty much gave up on the tower, so covering it at this point seems like the best option. Thank you so much for your valued input!

Sounds like you're having a really rough time with this one - I'm sorry!

Ooh I could definitely see this going in an overgrown-with-ivy direction. Maybe something vine-y in the cracks, and flocking across the surfaces? I’m sorry the tower gave you such a hard time, but I love how you’re persevering and making it into an opportunity for creativity!

yes! deliberately going for a run-down derelict look would give give you tons of scope to add vibes, moss etc. Bits of rubble at the bottom of the tower too if you wanted

I know you were having a hard time with this one. If I'd had as much trouble, I don't know if I'd have had the heart to go back to it.
The piece overall lacks in greenery, doesn't it? But it's tough to think of what might be appropriate. 🤔

I hate to say it but it looks as though you're missing a few pieces at the top of the tower wall, immediately under the roof. :/ You could absolutely call it a stylistic choice though! 😉
Some mossy green on the tower could look really good - go for it!
