Saw this on Flickr and loved it. All the details are amazing. On a side note, What does your room-mate thing of you being a TFOL?

That's pretty awesome!
The bit with the dome on top is my favourite part, but you've got some great details all over the place.
Very good job!

Lots of great details, I really like it. The staircase in the rock was very well done, and I absolutely love the dome on top. The little white birds also caught my eye, very simple, but they look great. Thanks for sharing!

Love the rubber bands as a ripple effect, and the lantern is so darn cool!
What is that piece at the top of it? A wheel?
Overall, amazing work, as usual!

I loved the concept!
Maybe at your eyes it will be a n00b comment, but it's not common to see MOCs of medieval observatories!

The small telescopes have a fantastic detail and the blue rubber around the column is "that final touch".

Great work :D

This is so cool! There are so many details that purely love! But using the rubber bands for ripples in the water is pure awesomeness!!!
