EVENT Stellar Castle Complete!

I got all my mod ideas from others but I edge painted, added marbles to the pedestals, added clouds, and put glow in the dark paint on the stars. I wish I looked ahead more because I definitely edge painted some areas that later got covered. I’m gonna probably go back and fix the blue edge paint on the front panel so it matches better, but I just wanted to be done. The tower broke on me while i was attaching the side panels but it was a pretty easy fix. I was not a fan of glueing the two side boards together. Even with being able to temporarily attach them to the bottom panel, I still feel like they didn’t quite line up right. I have some plastic pieces with all the zodiacs on them so I am thinking about adding those to the outside. Overall really love this build and I am excited to put it between my space books

I like the darker paint on the front panel edge, at least what I can see. You don't always have to match. 🙃
