Hi Kevin,
Thanks for the Comments. The mill is waiting for some of the White panes from
bricklink. I would have preferred black or brown frames, but those are a bit
pricey. The rounded bricks came mostly from bricklink, I had a few of the dark
grey ones from a creator set and the two white ones came with one of the new
Orient Adventurers sets. The one with the tiger. The black frame thickness in
the monks hut is due to a shortage of 1 x 1 black bricks. Most of the merchant
houses take about 90 1 x 1 black bricks. If I used 1 x 2 bricks, the walls
would be too thick. I plan on building about 5 or six more of the hut-like
buildings to even out the town. Furniture is going to be done in the next week
or so.
William
