A very well designed MOC, illustrating a nice, quaint scene. Keep up the excellent work!

Simply superb. The snowscaping is very well done, and I love that there's no baseplate. The transparency of the water makes it look rather cold, as befits a wintry scene like this, and the bridge-thing itself is worthy of the best fantasy illustrations. I love the top of it. The shape and the open roof, as well as the big, black, almost eye-like dish, evoke a somewhat mystical feel. The lower parts are quite awesome as well; especially the sign, ladder, the wooden middle, and the stone door. The screen door is a really funny idea, especially in such a cramped space. Your trees are nice. I hope you can finish it.

I love the snow and the water. I also love the use of the SNOT technique in this creation. Great Job.

I think I will be “borrowing” your water idea for some of my future creations.

As always, your work leaves me with no complaints. :D

I like all the details you put into this, from the look of the snowscaping to the decorative grappling hooks. Plus, as smcginnis said, the trans-blue water looks very cold--perfect for a scene like this.

Hey,

The structure seems kind of mysterious, like something from Myst. I really love the SNOTty landscaping.

Very nice! I really like the way you did the ground, with the river flowing through it.
