Sorry for coming back so late. Thanks for all of your suggestions. I see that I have started a heated debate about how to best keep things clean: I'm sure our mothers would be proud. :lol:

An ingenious idea. You could make it slightly more medieval looking, but it is still quite clever.

The inn itself is very well constructed. Looking at the Ronald McDonald fig, I can only think to myself: jibbly! There's nothing wrong with the fig itself, but I believe that my childhood fear of clowns is coming back...(hides under the covers).

I'm not a big Mongol/Eastern medieval fan, but I still think that this is an impressive creation. The landscaping and the posing of the figures add to the reality of this battle scene. Good luck in the contest.

I am particularly fond of Black Monarch's Castle and King's Castle. However, I think that all of these sets are wonderful, and that we should all raise a glass of New Year's champagne to the LEGO company for providing us with these masterworks.

The colour scheme and goofy face make him look more like the court jester. However, I still think that it shows good artistry on LEGO's part.

Great details in the interior. I like the buckets full of swords, and your forge is wonderful. The exterior is just as impressive, as is the small but appropriate landscaping around it. I'm looking forward to seeing how it fares in the contest.

Great landscaping, great factions. However, the pictures don't do this creation justice. I just hope that the admins do not punish an otherwise excellent battle scene due to the difficulty making out the figs.

I echo the words of everyone else, and express my admiration of the green faction. The rocky landscape is excellent, as is the beast. Good luck in the contest!

Although I am not a big fan of this colour scheme, the building itself has won me over. It looks like it has a shot at winning.

As a result I was hesitant to post this one at first
I don't understand why. With no intended disrespect to the other entrants in the interior category, I cannot find too many other entries with this level of structural integrity, interior detail, and interesting facets (stairs :D )

Good luck!

Although my first impression was that the hull looked out of place, I am starting to like it now. However, the exterior of the bakery is wonderful. I like the little details that were put in, especially the columns and the awning over the window. This should definitely place high in the contest, if ...

I am a big fan of your box designs. How do you make them? As for your creation, it is very realistic. It is Redwallesque, reminding me of the low walls and grassy interior of Redwall Abbey. I especially like the targets that you painted. This leads me to another question. What kind of paint did you ...

This is definitely a creation that would benefit from more space. The MOC is excellent, but it is a shame that you were limited by the contest space restrictions. This will be a major contender in the contest.
