Its a small castle but it goes well with the surrounding landscape. Are the helmets spray painted?

Very nice. I love the way you have it in different stages, like a recording or a castle once and then a second time 50 years later, or something. Great job!

They are that shiny just out of the box, and seeing this MOC makes me think that they won't photograph too well. They look great in person, but I can't say that I like the way they look in these photos.

This is starting to look really nice. The buildings look good, as well as sturdy; and the garden looks really good. Nice posing of the figs too.

Ah, this MOC keeps getting better and better. :)

Love the swimming Crown Knight. He looks quite content.

Great job! I like the fence with the brown 1x4 tiles and the railing with robot hands. Hands for hay is a nice touch!

I think all the foliage makes the ground look a little to cluttered.

Keep up the good work!

It's quite a bustling fort now. I love the minifig placement and the details- especially the EXO-Force hair being used as lettuce/cabbage. This was a great use for such an odd piece and I think I'll have to scour BL for these, along with some other "food" items. Which also reminds me- I need a pitchfork!

The use of minifig hands as horse-feed was unsettling at first, I didn't notice it right away until I had looked at the other pics. :D

If you go to the SAH website and hit up Pick A Brick you can get all sorts of food items at a fraction of the price of Brick Link.
