Congratulations to all other winners.

And a great honor to win master builder again, this year.

Somewhere deep in the Whispering Woods, live many magical creatures and plant life. Not many have seen them, but the small gnomes are continuing keeping the forest livable and are caring for all plant and animal life's, even the invasive kind as long as they don't harm them. What doesn't harm them, ...

Thank you, getting the roof right was a bit challenging, but I really like how it turned out in the end.

Thanks all, for organizing this contest again.

I really liked the truly classic castle category, that was fun.

In Hellum lies a small farmers village, called Banwert. -- My first build of the year (well I started it last year already but didn't finish it in time). A new build for the Whispering Woods series and also made for the CCC XXI, "Dream Village" category. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535...

The wall got damaged with a previous attack on the city, now the workers are hard at work to repair the damage.

Made for the CCC XXI, "Truly Classic Castle" category, with using only parts pre 1996, except some new reddish brown and bluish gray. This was fun, although difficult as well sometimes. I had to substitute a number of green plates with smaller ones, because the bigger ones didn't exist yet...

Deep in the mountains lies a small shrine of the water god on the edge of a lake between the blooming cherry trees: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53419876073_e63bcd2866.jpg Mizugami no jinsha - Shrine of the water god by Ids de Jong , on Flickr Close up of the shrine and torii gate: https://li...

The night elves their home "A'slion Dorthore" build into the holy tree of life, deep in the forest of Ardabor. The water of holy tree connects the whole forest, which the night elves use for transportation and keeping the forest safe. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53414423914_ce6882b...

The fantastical feast is held each year, at Majisto's castle, and no party is complete without a few uninvited guests. Ogwen the dragon has escaped the dungeon and decided to also partake, because the guards were also at the party, Ogwen was only noticed when trying to enter the great hall. https://...

Question regarding the village category, if the buildings are attached, does it count as one or multiple? For example next to each other in a street, or attached to a single central building (e.g. a gatehouse)? What if in a fantasy village some buildings are build on top of each other (each would st...

Yeah, I agree, can't wait to try somethings myself for that category.

Yeah so, classic parts (1995 or earlier), with any modern build techniques are fine, it doesn't have to be a classic style build? Although you could also make a classic MOC, something like this (which also has it charms, don't know if that is the goal of the contest though?): https://live.staticflic...

Haha, yeah I know, it was just a joke and any overlap would be a coincidence (still it can make it somewhat easier to enter multiple categories if they do overlap).

I appreciate the work needed to come up with new contest ideas each time, so thanks for that, can't be easy every time.

Thanks, yeah it's been interesting for sure, I looked at most entries before I started this one, to be sure I used some unique features and tried to avoid coping what others have build already.

I always wanted to use those pieces for a flag, and they fitted well with this build.
