That is cool Chris!

I'd just have one comment - it mightn't be as easy as you think to get a
seal at the top - unless LEGO have made 4x4 tiles with round corner. There's
no tile that would match exactly to the edge of the cylinder. However you
may be able to seal it with another arch at the top of the doorway (on the
inside).

Personally, I dont think it's necessary - mybe just a few tiles to *almost*
seal it would look fine.
