Hi,

Thanks for the comments.  It's nice to hear constructive criticism.  I think
that you are right about some details like the above separating a good MOC from
a masterpiece.  Some of these I was aware of (if I'd been willing to put in the
time, I would have varied the texture of interior walls to make them
interesting), and some I'm not.  The gap you mention I missed, which is a bit
embarrassing given that I knew I would highlight that point.  I'm much better at
the exterior of my MOCs than the interior, so comments like yours are very
welcome.

Thanks, glad you liked them.
