Lonesome Valkyrie

Lonesome Valkyrie

Hello everyone!

This is my entry for the Mini Castle Contest IV and it's called Lonesome Valkyrie.

This construction has a moving wind mill, a cart with horse, boats and a working drawbridge.

I very much like this. The windmill is great, and I like the cape as a sail (good thinking!). The MOC is balenced well, and contains a feeling of motion that many micros miss. Well done!!!

This is well done. I really like the tan bridge leading to the castle(?) on the cliffs. As has been said, the cape for the boat definitely stood out to me.

Very well executed! I am also a fan of that cape sail, but even the small sail ships are nice. Windmill is creative.

The photography is good, though the colors feel a bit warm for my tastes.

This one is done perfectly. You've adopted some real great building techniques. It's done so perfectly to scale and there is a neat blend of colours. :)

That's not really a castle. :wink: It's a small isolated village on top of that cliff...
