Hey,

It's one of the many fine entries in the CCC that hasn't been mentioned in the forums (as far as I've seen). Check out all the great entries that are there now and get some inspiration to submit your own.

I should definitely be checking out the entries a bit more if this is what is coming in!

This is awesome!!! I love the Classic Black Falcon look, with a few more recent elements to aid the civilian feel.

This Rocks!

i agree... this could almost have been released "back in the day"... it looks really authentic... and... it would sell well today for the same cost as Orlan's Citadel, i'd bet. 8)

This is a very nice MOC. As Formendacil and Ottoatm have said it has a classic Black Falcon feel that just blows you away.

And...........if I'm not mistaken I think it is built with New Grays. Correct me if I'm wrong, it may just be the lighting.

Nice.

I like the fact that this isn't just another tudor framed building. This has to be one of the more creative small Castle MOCs I've seen in quite a while.

Very nice, I love design of it. It is old greys since it uses a 1x5x6 castle wall piece which hasn't come out in bley (yet...), only the corner ones have (New Hagrid's Hut).

This does have a "classic" feel to it. I like the simple, realistic design. A Knight Bachelor pad complete with a garage for his ride! Throw in a beer keg (or 2) and what else would a knight need? :D

It's got a really nice feel to it. Good use of selective compression but with lots of nice detail. The only critisism I could make of it is that I never feel that door piece looks right on a castle moc. It's a bit too contempory.
Other than that I love it :)
