Chateau de Barron

[Athos]

Here's a creation I did a litle while back for Hinckley's survivor contest, this time with more photos (though these photos aren't great, as the house is quite dark and the yard is quite snowy), but let's take the tour anyway, the Baron is waiting:

Let's explore the exterior first:

Be sure to toss a few coins in the fountain for luck:

Lets look at my flowerbeds, before we go in:

Can I offer you a drink, before we go in?

Let's start in the attic, where I store all the treasures I'm not displaying:

On the second floor is my collection of rare books are stored next to an Egyptian sarcophagus:

Is it nap time already?

Alexis Sinister does her hair at the vanity:

Let's give her some privacy and go down stairs:

And into the dining room, looks like fish is on the menu:

Before we eat, we'd better check out the kitchen:

Wow. When i saw the exterior, i thought that was as good as it gets. But after seeing the interior details, i appreciated the entire house

Thanks for the tour! I'll have to come in for a drink.

That house is amazing. From the outside, I wasn't expecting such a rich interior. I was very impressed with the fountain and all the furniture/decor/artefacts - seriously detailed and carefully done. I wonder how Alexia passes the time when Sinister is racing against JT?

A very nice exterior and interior all in one great MOC, Well done!

I will be sure to try out some of these nice techniques for furniture etc.

Cheers

Holy crudmuffins! That's impressive! I love the exterior, and the idea for the fountain was wonderful! And the Ivy on the side of the house! I also like the bed and the drawers, they show great technique!

this castle looks very cool and it interior is awesome^^ great job on it!

[Captain Blackmoor]

I've seen this before in the 'Build whatever you like' contest I believe.

There it had another interior, more castle style.

I like the new interior, especially the small details everywhere. The paintings are very nice as well.

The exterior is nice too, the fountain and the building itself. I like the shape and coloursheme a lot.

Great work!

It was in the contest that Hinckley was running. Though the interior hasn't been changed at all. Just some closer-up pictures so you can see it better.
