Excellent creation. I like the pathway. The landscaping is interesting, it looks blocky but still realisticish. I really like that little fountain. You did a great job on this, you packed in details, but didn't make it too complex.

Thank you. It took me a very long time to find all the 1x1 cyndrical plates to make the pathway. Glad you like it :D

This is excellent for a first MOC. I like how the tower is built upon a small hill. It is a little blurry in the few pictures listed before but all the rest is great! Good work!

The pictures are very blurry and the lighting is bad, but we all get better as we go on.

I suggest organising those colors a little more. I know you probably are running out of pieces, but maybe you should try building smaller. The landscaping is exellent. So the only work is the exterior of the building.

A really good first-attempt, and i'm sure, a lot better than mine!

The construction and details seem really solid, and the interior nicely detailed. I think you could benefit from sloping the landscape however- it's stepped currently and rather unnatural. That said, the foliage and plants are nicely placed.

A tripod (or a steady hand!) couldn't hurt either. I think good presentation has a lot to do with the overall success of a MOC, but most of all it allows the viewers to see more clearly some of the better details of the MOC. You could benefit from this a lot.

Regardless, nice work!

I agree that the pictures aren't that great. Still trying to learn the basics of of my digital camera and the lighting isn't that great either hopefully when I finish the castle completely I'll have better pictures :) .
