Wow! :shock: That is a great entry you have, I love how you used tiles instead of bricks, it really adds a lot to an already awesome MOC. Keep up the good work! :)

That is wonderful. That staircase is ace, and the tiled wall really completes it.

I was hoping something like this would result from this category. Great job!
You would rather be building right now.

Brilliant! The torches and statue are nice touches.

The texture of the handrail is a little too much for me, but other than that, I really like this!! The large radius of curvature makes it feel very graceful.

One of my favorite entries into this category, I think. Very unique :)

On second look, one thing that would have improved this a bit would have been eliminating the gaps between the wall and floor. I guess I don't know if that is possible based on the technique you used to curve the walls, but at least covering them up with something would have been nice.

This is beautiful! The stair-case/curved wall is great as well as the knight statue. :)
The banner is new to me where is it from?

Nice. The floor could use some polish but the walls and curvature are lovely.
...and that's how Equestria was made!

What a great idea, like the smoothness of the entire thing. If you could have tiled the floor it might have looked a tad better, but beautiful work nontheless!
