That's interesting, but what category are you entering it in?

Looks like it would fit in the "Miscellaneous" category.

This is a cool moc.
That knight and his squire don't look very friendly.
I like how the knight's gear is all set up in the tent.
Are they having a drink before the battle?

Good tent AC. Those guys don't seem to have good deeds ;)
And Ayden, it's the CCCIII contest and also I'm really having a really hard time while trying to understand what you typed.

Hey AC,

Nice MOC. I like how there is enough room on the interior to move around without being over-large on the outside. The use of capes is also very clever.

Very nice.

The use of the capes was a very good idea.

I agree with the two others on your use of capes... not only is the idea good, but the way you used them is even more important - it makes it look a lot like one big cloth flap, and not like a bunch of capes (which would be kind of shoddy).

The best part is that you made it a bulls tent... I can see that, since they are always seiging. :twisted:

I like this tent. I agree, these two guys aren't very cheery, are they?

One of the things I miss having are small sets that would be something like this. Tents and small huts would be a welcome addition to my kingdom.

Good job ACPin!

Thanks all for the compliments! Quite surprised for such a small MOC that it attracted this much attention. I've used capes in various ways before and this presented another opportunity. The size was very important to maintain in this scale as it had just to be the right fit so that there's also enough room inside.

How'd you feel if you just lost in the grand tournament? Better get drunk and forget about it!

I've uploaded more pics in Brickshelf so that you'll be able to see it from various angles.
