Hi guys!

This is the first MOC I've posted on the forum. Hope you like it!
The pictures link to the set on Flickr. Thanks for checking it out.

The building looks nice. I like the windows on the side and the indented door. If you added some landscape, It would look much nicer. Even a little bit of grassy plate elevation does wonders.

Good work on the building, I especially like the vines on the back. I agree that some landscaping would improve it a lot though

Thanks for the suggestion! I've only recently started my collection, and I guess it would be a good idea to buy some pieces for landscaping.

I'll third the comment about landscaping, though I always run short on landscaping pieces so I can understand when MOCs don't always have a lot of it. I posted a few comments on flickr for you, things that I ran across while building my tavern recently that I felt gave it a certain finished quality. I realized while looking over your pictures of this MOC that your screen name seemed familiar, and then I remembered that I had looked at your other castles before. As I commented on them previously, you have a nice retro style that really shines through all of your castle builds. Over all, I like your tavern. I think it is a solid build combining a classic castle look with some modern elements.

Particularly on the back of the MOC, the upper half is really nice and has a lot of great texture, while the lower half is very flat and plain, other than the plants. Adding some protruding or indented elements to that lower wall would add a lot to this build.

Dr. Jackles and I share a Flickr. We try to label who's built what. If I haven't said so before, I dig your Tavern and Hunter's Hall.

Jackles, I'm glad you've gotten into it. I really like it here, and I'm sure you will too. You can borrow some of my green bricks for your landscape next time. I like the interior you built for the tavern a lot. The Medieval Market Village seems to have added a lot of useful pieces to your collection. If only it weren't produced with all of those new colors!
