Hello Everyone,
I have now built a governor’s mansion for my town. His Excellency The
Marques de Afilado, Captain-General of His Most Catholic Majesty’s domain of
El Cubo (The Brick!), is visiting his new home, accompanied by his loyal
guards. You can see it here:

Bah! The interior needs work.

We haven’t had a pirate era building for a while, and this is certainly a nice
one.
The yellow/white with black and red colour scheme which lego established is
certainly spot on.
I really like that you’ve successfully incorporated the smiley/grumpy bricks and
the curviness of the front verandah. The coach and escort are great too.
The only area for improvement (besides the interior), would perhaps be a more
detailed garden. A water feature (or two) together with some formed flowerbeds,
and perhaps a statue, would complement the mansion nicely.
Adieu
Richie Dulin
