Another Brick In The Wall

Been a bit since I've posted bu I've been casting molds and trying to build. I will emphasize trying. Started building the octagonal tower and was not happy with it, So I'm starting over with that. I've built the Wizards Tower and its OK.

I need to get better with laying bricks and be consistant about it. So I thought what is the easiest thing to do? Build a wall section. It turned out fine. But what I'm going to do is build wall sections, corners, and corners with towers. These are things that we can readily use in our gaming.

Here's the first wall section. I wasn't sure how I was going to build the top part up. All I knew I was going to do was make it a 50ft tall wall, which meant 5 inches tall. Once I figured out how I was going to to the wall off  and added the extra crenelations I added anothe inch to inch to it. The next time I do tis I'll build the wall up to 4.5 inches and add the extra inch of crenelations then and it'll be at the height I want.

Here's the front view.
