This is an entry into the CCCX Trade and Tolls Category:
RUSH HOUR AT THE WEST GATE
Ever since the King decide to put a toll on people entering for the Saturday Market, the traffic has been a nightmare!

This scene was meant to be a medieval version of NYC traffic at the bridges and tunnels, I hope that came across.
Enjoy!

Awesome work, you definitely expressed the busy feeling well. I love the tan/dark tan mottling on the lower level of the building, and the little glimpses of the road I can see look great too!

Re: CCCX Trade And Tolls - Rush Hour at the West Gate
Thanks guys! The house was loads of fun, I may do another one in that style soon. The road was not so much fun, it took me hours to place all those tiles and you can barely see it, oh well!

Re: CCCX Trade And Tolls - Rush Hour at the West Gate
Both levels of the house and the roof are awesome. Cool road too.

Re: CCCX Trade And Tolls - Rush Hour at the West Gate
I'm liking the mix of 2x2 and 1x1 tiles in the road a lot, and the simplicity and height of the castle wall make it much more imposing than a lot of the fancier architecture out there.
