Mountain Chateau

Post by einsteinonthebeach »

Here is my 4th Post-Dark-Ages MOC. I do apologize for the mediocre quality of the photos. Constructive comments are much appreciated. Next project on deck is my CC Haunted Castle, stay tuned!

I love your MOC. The architecture is great. The different parts of the building all have the same flavor and tie together very well. I love the orchard of pine trees and other crops mixed into the pathways, landscape, and buildings. The color scheme of the rocky path really struck me as nice. Well done. :D

You have given your walls a lot of depth, it looks great. Well done.

There doesn't seem to be a problem witth the quality to me.
I love the height you have given to the moc, it looks very impossing and gives it a bit of fantasy flair.

This is a great looking MOC. I love seeing textured castle walls and the little house is nice. The only thing that I would want to see different is to mix up the foliage a little and not have so many prefab trees side by side.

Nice job!

I also like the height of the structures in this. The courtyard is interesting with the dark blue tiles. Perhaps you could add some lillies for the frog to sit on? Just a thought... Very nice, keep up the good work.

Very nice scale and interaction between all the various elements! I liked the tiling and slow fade of the landscape into the buildings!

God Bless,

I like the tiny blue house outside the chateau. It offers a very small intricate detail to such a large moc. Love it.

This is very nice, and very well built. Its just fantastic :D . With the little house at the bottom you could create a villlage by adding more houses and have the chateau as a lords castle. I think its great anyway realy good design. :)

Once again you come up with an amazing MOC! This beauty is fantastic. The layout is very nice and the walls have just the right amount of detailing.

A superb job all around, mate! Hope to see some more castles from ya!
