Wow, this is quite excellent! The stonework is fantastic. I am a big fan of how they did the very slight offsets in the wall with the 1x2 tiles. I like the window too.

Really like this! The rockwork and the olive green leaves are excellent.

That window is great! Did they use head light bricks?

Excellent, indeed! He did a stellar job creating so many small off-sets.

This is great. I have been wondering about that white hat with the red band. Does anyone have any info on that?

He blended the profile bricks into the wall brilliantly. I really like the sand green section and the house.

Re: Legend of St Nicolas by Pif500
This build is absolutely packed with detail! I think my favorite is the donkey. Those ears are fascinating! I would be very curious to see a tutorial on it.
As others have mentioned the rock wall with the slight offsets is really impressive.
And I am of the opinion that fleshies with sand green go incredibly well together.

@SSchmidt: Here is a tutorial the builder made for the donkey: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/pif50 ... to_ane.jpg
As others have said the wall detailing is superb, the 1x2 tiles sticking out a bit match the profile bricks extremely well
