Not at all! On the contarary, I love to see your work.

First an most exciting I have added a new "Generic Building" to my site.  This
really looks more like an upper middle class home.  I realise there was a very
limited middle class in the middle ages but this is also a bit of a fantasy so
I can do whatever I like.

It is becoming more and more obvious that I am running out of key colors but I
am much happier than I thought I was going to be when I started this house.

I like it a lot! The grey-blue combination works great and I love the windows
(not gabled, um, whatstheirname) on the roof.

Second I have added 2 new Market shops to my Market.  You can see these at the
bottom of my market page.  I don't know what is going to be sold in these
shops
yet so for now the shelves are bare.

I hope someone rents them soon! Put up a sign... :-)

Third, I would generally not show another peasant building but I just wanted
to
highlight the fake door design used here (Yes I stole this from Dave E. too).
Basically this is a layer of plates covered with tiles that are attached at a
90 degree angle to the building in back using technic beams and 1/2 pegs with
stud.

Cool! I haven't seen Dave use this but I think you talked about that and I
wasn't paying attention... It looks awesome, realistic indeed.

You can always make the roof removable so that interior is possible...

Fourth,  I added one picture of the new roof I put on the lookout tower on my
City gate.  I like this design much better although it is still not perfect.
The picture is at the bottom of this page and is not of the best quality
because it came out dark and I had to brighten it considerably.

Nice job!

Lastly,  I added a couple of pic's to my "City View" page.  The city is
starting to hang of the edges of our dining room table so I am going to have
to
find a new location soon.  Once again the new pics are at the bottom of the
page.

Wow, that's really big. I'm green with envy... oh well, my inn is coming to a
nice start and other building will eventually join... I hope!


As usual, great creations!
