You did a really good job on this. I love the way you made the bricks, and the interier. The way you made the men working on it is also a nice touch.

This is a really cool and unique idea... and you took it a step further with the guys working on the building - it's really well done. I also like the mixing of gray you did on the other side... more realistic looking ~ :)

The brick design looks really good, and the model looks great overall.

However, it looks more like a 1800s building than a medieval building. Still, no complaints here.

Hello!


This looks good. Not exactly mediaeval, though, but it's cool. Besides the brickworl I like the scene with the construction workers.

I like this!
The brick design is very unique but I think the building would look more appropriate for a 1700's or 1800's era city instead of the medieval era.
It doesn't matter though, it looks awesome & the construction scene is great. I like how you made the little crane to lower the construction basket. Good thinking!

Very neat idea! I'll have to try the bricks sometime, after all, some castles were brick built. I don't think anyone has commented on the thextured stone walls, that is my favorite part!

I agree that the building isn't very medieval, but it is definetely wll-designed. I think the best features are the method of acess and the construction rigging, namely using lances and clip-on triangles for support.

I agree, this isn't medieval building. Sorry

Thank for all comments

Hey Sir Lomero,

Very cool. I like the way you made the brick wall sections slide out to access the inside, which also helps avoid the problem of how to affix the SNOT sections. The pully thing on top is especially clever as well, with those triangular sign pieces and minifig arms.
