Very nice assortment of figs. I am trying to keep more peasants than soldiers
but it is a hard thing to do. Its a good thing the Star Wars sets have good
parts.
My only comment is I don't like Silver Swords. To me no sword should be as big
as the person carrying it. :-) I think the Silver Sword is OK for a special or
Majical weapon but otherwise I try very hard not to use it. That has been hard
though because I have a shortage of DkGray swords which means I have more
pikemen and archers than I'd like. Speaking of archers I don't like the
crossbow either and the new sets have a ton.
Of course this is all just personal preferance so do what you like.

The inn is coming along very nicely. The bar seems a little high, your
innkeeper can barely see over it. I guess she can just toss the drinks over.
Seriously though I might either lower the bar by a couple plate thicknesses or
I would raise the floor behind the bar so that your inn keeper can reach over.
I like your Keg behind the bar and your Well a lot. I also like your door on
the other side and the red windows. I wouldn't worry too much just yet about
color. I would wait till you get that line of color installed I think you
might find it does wonders. Plus if you plan on landscaping your inn with
flowers and bushes that helps a lot too.
If you look at my Inn I really don't have a lot of color up to the second floor
either. The green shutters do add a little more color but that is it. A lot
of my color comes from the red roof and the flowers all around the sides. I
suppose the white window mullions do help brighten the building a bit as well.
Unfortunatly I don't know if there is anything but black inserts for the arched
windows.
You might consider changing your gray 1x1 rounds with tan that might help
brighten things a bit.

I do like your page layout but it did take quite a while for your page to load
on through my modem. You might want to consider either thumbnailing some of
your pictures or maybe just keeping two updates at a time on your page and move
the older versions to a second page linked to from your first.

Great work once again. Like I said I wish I had documented some of my projects
from the begining. You probably wouldn't recognize most of them.
