That is REALLY sweet!

It echoes the style of the original theme, while being both better-constructed and defensible as well as more detailed.

I really like it!

That's excellent, you did a great job on all the greenery. I also like how you rigged the suspension bridge for when the scene folds apart.

Great Job!

For some reason, I like the topograhpy of the stream.

Overall, you packed a lot of detail into a sort of small space, for example all the plants and stuff. Great job!

Great Forestmen entry! Ironically, I just finished a forestmen entry last night and yours is way better than mine. So now do I redo it or take pictures of it as is?! :D

Great job, the angled wooden wall is well done and the river is to, with the plates over it, a very detailed, realistic and classic look!

I love how this MOC is packed full of so much detail everywhere. Each time I look I see something new. The stream to me really looks like it's naturally meandering through the countryside and the fortress was built around it. I really like the wooden wall as well, it also looks like it was built to adjust for the existing landscape. I can picture this from a minifigs perspective and it looks like a fun, homey place to live!

Wow! Amazing work. The stream, the wall, the bridge, the hidden door, the rope bridge... it's all too much for me to take in at once! So many creative details in one small place... I love it! Great work, now if you'll excuse me, I have to study the pictures some more. :D

This is a cute small village/hideout moc. I like the "not strait wooden walls". When I saw this on brickshelf, a while ago, I saw it from the side, and it was realy dificult to see that there is a hideout between the trees. Could be a Asterix and Obelix village. Goog work!

This is really nice. I like the 6066 call back and the unique murky river (haven't seen a non bluish one before : ). All round a good MOC, though I would get rid of the palm leaves...

God Bless,

Nathan
