Lovely tavern! I really like the swamp and the tavern itself is top-notch, great touches with the balcony and roof over the entrance :)

Nice roof! The one nitpick I have is that the transition between the roof and the sides is a bit abrupt. Not sure what could be done, but it seems a little off. Anyway, everything else is fantastic!

Oh boy, now this is a nice one! The colors really complement eachother well. I know this isn't your first time with that roof technique, but it just looks so gorgeous here! The landscape is excellent too!
You would rather be building right now.

That's really really good. It reminds me of the swamp tavern in Risen.

The reason for that is because the roof if tricky to make, and it wouldn't work as well to have it across the whole thing is because of the support-system. I'm pretty sure has some pictures of it on his stream.

Brilliant work on the remote swamp atmosphere Simon! Love the architecture and minifigs. :D

Thank you Aeridian :)

I don't have posted a technic of how to support the roof, usually with 1x2 technic bricks and a 1x1 brick with a stud on the side, but in this one I did it just with a hinge part on one side of the roof... good for the design, bad for the stability :lol:

That roof is gorgeous. In fact, the whole scene is very nicely put together. Nice work! :)
