Oh look another reason not to build. I'll just stick to the boxed sets. Oh, and this is really nice btw.

You are one of my favorite builders. Ever since the release of your first installment of this series I have been eager to see your next MOC. I am astounded by the details in this. The snow was done outstandingly as was everything else. I like your take on the water.
VERY well done.

Awesome work!! Besides echoing the positive comments already mentioned, I wanted to add that for me, the thing I like the best is that the size and detail of this MOC and the other one linked give the feeling of actually being in a different place. It's like an on location site for a movie shoot. I almost wished that there were some photoshopped (Lego landscaping) scenery to go around the edges to make it seem like an actual place, but that would take away from the artwork of a MOC in itself. The website is very impressive as well. I like seeing someone take their love of a hobby this far and succeed along the way :D .

Nathan, this is great.

Very impressive size. My favorite part is the trans blue loose tiles for water, very creative. I notice that the Vikings' helmets are horn-less. Nice.

This is honestly just so awe-inspiring! The snowy mountain is awesome, but those caves are incredible! I am super impressed by your building skills. Also, I like the beacon itself.

Just to let everyone know that I've put up a better picture/explanation of the tower construction up in my Tips and Tricks section...

God Bless,
