Well, here's the starting pics from my "Castle Project". It's going to be planted with succulents when finished, and will even have a built in fountain feature. It's made using Portland cement soaked cloth over a hardware cloth framework. I still have a bit to finish but I think the hardest parts are done.
1. The initial framework, this was as scratchy a project as I ever want to do.
2. Inside the laundryroom, the center tower gets it's material coat.
3. Installed out in the garden, a barrel stay was used for the base.
4. Starting to fill in the details. The base is poured with Quickcrete and the "steps" of the planter get their material coats.
Today I continue with the details. Some outside windows will be added and I'll snap some pics of where the fountain is going.
