I love it! Very detailed! I love the vault and tax-collecter office. I do not like, however, the old Black Falcon... UHH-GLY!

Amazing! The level of detail is very good. The one thing that gets to me, though, is the split fireplace. It always irks me when the fireplace is split!

Nice job on the interior details. I like the meat ;) I think the split fireplace is a good way to open a building and the black falcon is my favorite (although he needs the classic smiley). The only thing I would change is the spacing of the timbers. It would look better (to me) if they were more closely spaced. Do a search on real life half-timbered houses and you can see that that the timbers are mores dense. Keep up the good work!

Hi Nathan,

I like your hall very much. The simple form, small number of windows (creating a dark interior), and furniture make this creation seem very "medieval". I like how the building opens up through the middle of the table - it is a nice touch. :wink:

Hey Nathan,

I like this a lot. My favorite little details are the way you used gearshifts to support the windows and the way you built your own stairwell rather than using the existing stairwell piece, allowing for compression into a smaller space.
I hadn't noticed that the building split went right through the table until reading Ben's post. - goes back to look - Very clever.

I forgot to post earlier because I told you how great it was in chat. So I'm just posting for no reason except to make it known that I like this. But who doesn't? It's the first town government building we've seen posted here! I think...

Hey Nathan,
I really like this MOC, i can seee that every part of the interior has been thought out carfully. But i have to admit with the councelers, it is very dark inside!!

Hey Nathan,

As others have stated so well, this is a very nice MOC, you are improving leaps and bounds as you keep building. Just thought I'd chime in and then ramble so it wasn't a one sentence post. Anyway, I like the MOC and I agree with Ben, this is definitly one of your best.

After a long absence, I have returned. I can't wait to start building again.

Nathan!

Another A+ moc. The thing I like best about your MOCs is how creative they are. I boat made of Dino-tails, an alternate form of horse hitching, a small little Tudor-house! Shall I continue?

You continue that in this, instead of opening the way Blacksmith show does, youn shook things up. The double hinge is awsome and expands the quality of this MOC double! Splitting at the table was pure brilliance! My favorite MOC in a while it is!

Bye,

Dragon Master

P.S. Any chance of us getting some picks off all you castle mocs togeter as a village?

P.P.S. Where is all this Tan coming from!

Great job Nathan!

Nathan,

Sweet building. I really like all the little details in the building, specially the meat, staircase, and the room upstairs. I don't know if I like the fact that the table splits, but it would be tough to have it in there any other way. :P

Good work, dude.

Thanks, the fireplace bothers me too, but it's easy place to put the hinge.

Thanks! The spacing of the timbers would be closer if I had the parts, but I'm very low on black 1x1s :(

WOW, thank you! :shock:

I got all the tan from the UCS Yoda. I highly recommend this set for castle builders! It might be hard to have any two of my houses because I have to destory each one to make the next! :cry:
