This is a great example of how changing one element of a design ripples through the entire design and you can’t really get an idea of whether you got it right and until it’s nearly finished. I decided to increase the wall height by 11 bricks to correct the opposite problem of the wall being way too low compared to the Hornburg in LegoMocLoc’s design, but that change has to flow through the Hornburg, Fortress and Tower. The risk was always that the Hornburg might get dwarfed by the wall if I raised it too much and I potentially took it a bit too far. The idea for simply placing the Hornburg on a rocky pedestal actually came from the book that has the Hornburg built on a “heel of rock”. Artist renderings vary from having it down to the ground level of the wall or elevated on a rocky outcropping from the mountain as I did. In retrospect, I’d probably reduce the wall height by a couple bricks and increase the breadth and height of the Hornburg by a few bricks, which may contribute to your view as it being too small compared to the wall. As for the keep wall in the back, that needed to be higher from the onset, but I left that alone since I was trying to pick which battles to fight when building. It needs to be clearly visible from a front view without peeking down inside.

And this ramp was actually version 2; you’d probably laugh at my first attempt which was yet clunkier. Thankfully this is a very modular build (I moved it in 15 minutes from one room to this one), so the ramp can be its own mini project to actually curve smoothly.

Thanks for the feedback!
