Current view of the refurbishment of Hogwarts Castle. Areas in foreground have been painted a base color. Scaffolded section at left used to have scrims. Seems to be getting last details. This project seems to have a rapid schedule. Perhaps because the impact on story is huge.

This section of Hogwarts Castle was one of the first to have scaffolding and scrims for refurbishment. Scrims recently removed. Only Universal knows the plan. Even so, interesting details to take a moment to see.

A look at some areas of the Hogwarts Castle refurbishment that were previously behind scrims. Currently scaffolding only. Could be the artists are assessing the repainting from a distance. Perhaps with drone camera. Refining details soon. Only Universal knows the plan.
