1. Joe Vigliotti from Pennsylvania Joe has been a very enthusiastic castle builder since August 2001. He began with a rendition of the Fortified Bridge over the River Monnow in Monmouth, Wales, followed by the Keep at Newcastle-upon-Tyne in Northumberland, England. As he turns out castles, he promises he's also doing his homework. You can email him at [email protected].

2. Jeremy Folkman from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Jeremy just got inspired to build castles in March 2001. His first castle, the Duke of Albany's powerful Castle Doune in Stirlingshire, Scotland, can be seen below. If his wife doesn't murder him for taking out a second mortgage to buy plastic building blocks, you can expect great things from him! [Only kidding, of course!] Needless to say, this's not Jeremy sitting in the courtyard at Doune, but Alycia is much cuter and I couldn't resist. A new addition is due in May and it's NOT more Lego bricks! You can email him at [email protected].

3. Corey Gehman from Phoenix, Arizona Corey has just gotten back into Lego building in March 2002 after a twenty year hiatus. The stimulus was a robotic tape stacker he saw at a friend's home, but before he could start the project, he became intrigued with Lego castle possibilities. His model of Castle Rising in England, completed May 12, 2002 was his first project. He's also finished models of Bolton and Bunratty. He also sees skyscrapers and sees them built in Lego! You can email him at [email protected] and also see his models at THIS LINK.
4. Stephen Wroble from Michigan Stephen is a middle aged college professor who teaches art history as well as "interactive computer graphics", which he translates as "game design". His wife Karen is a writer and political analyst. Stephen's website is at CLICK HERE. It's filled with great games and graphics, as you would expect. Please visit his website, and if you are inclined, email him at [email protected]. Steve's website currently features 18 castles, but all the new ones seem to be computer generated.
5. Daniel Vallauri from southern France Dan is a 34 year old Private Banker in Monte Carlo. He lives nearby, but is Italian by birth. A self described "Legohaulic" whose English is obviously excellent, he undertook one of the most famous and largest (!) castles in the world for his first project, the Krak des Chevaliers in Syria!! Fifteen months in the building (and waiting for orders of white Lego - like me with Neuschwanstein), the Krak was completed on October 7, 2010. You won't believe it! His second project is Belvoir Castle in Israel, another famous Hospitaler castle from the Crusades. It received second place in the Classic Castle Contest this year. The winner was very nice, but Dan was robbed! You can email him at [email protected].
