Great Work Bud! You really brought some brightness into this build with the vendor, flags and shields in the wall. Once again, your interiors are lovely and I like all the outside wall details. Keep up the great work!
Happy Building, Sir Valiant~

You've got some incredibly good techniques going on here. My favorite things about your builds are always the interiors. They look splendid. Great work!

Awesome work Isaac, sweet techniques! My one and only critique would be it looks too bleak...just more and more grey. Some accents would really be appreciated, the flags, people, and cart are nice accents, but I think you need more, especially on the manor itself. Other than that, great work! Lovely interiors!

Soccerkid, I have watched your builds over the past year or so and you have really progressed fast. Its fun to see people develop their style and your builds definitely have a look to them that is your own. The dark outline of the structure looks great and and you really captured that melting snow look.
Thanks for sharing this build.

Schmidt: Thanks Schmidt, glad to hear you enjoy my interiors mpoh98: Thanks Matthew, I was actually going for 'bleak' as this is a winter scene of a large stone house. When trying to portray a cold scene you want to avoid using many colors that are 'hot' or 'warm' for the most part (how many very bright colors do you see in Nature during the winter?); I could have used a bright colored shield in the building, but chose the heroic knight's because of its cold colors that I thought fit the scene well. And from what I've read and seen of medieval manors they were generally pretty bleak (there weren't too many ways to brighten up the exterior of completely stone buildings). If this building wasn't set in Mitgardia I would have agree that it needs some more color accents though David: Thanks David, I've had fun experimenting with different stages of snowiness

I was going to ask if you did an interior...but then again I should know better. Isaac I love these shots.

Great build! I think a tree or two (evergreen, of course) would add some more color to the exterior without being out of place. I love that you added interiors, too.

Hey Isaac,
How exactly do you build those cheese slope stained glass windows? I have seen quite a few of them, but still can't understand how they are built. Are they held together by friction?

mattiusxavier: Thanks Matt, and yes you should know better by now @ronin: Thank you, I would have done something like that, but this build is located in a city. Schmidt: The stained glass itself doesn't actually use any cheese slopes, it used the bottoms of turntables and some normal trans 1x2 and 1x1 plates. The stained glass isn't actually attached, but I used some bracks over the top to sandwich it in place between those and the frame you see from the front. Does all that make sense?
