  Re: Finally...
 
(...) Wow! Absolutely stunning. I'm going to take some time over the next few days to enjoy, and then re-enjoy all the pics. I would LOVE to see this MOC in person. I also love the back story. In the end, it's all about story-telling, isn't it? (...) (19 years ago, 19-Aug-05, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: Finally...
 
(...) Very nice work. I love that tree. I like how you have it spilt into two large trunks near the top. The under construction building is very nice.
