Traditional Christmas Dinner

It's been too long since my last post.  The beginning of a new school term means I have to spend a little extra time at work so I have found it hard to find time to build.  Stupid paper work.  Some weeks it can be a real uphill battle just to get a little time to myself to do some quality building.  Poor me!

This is definitely my favourite interior so far.

The black and red is very effective here and I think the wall decorations worked out pretty well.

Next step is building the last sliding rear wall in which I hope to include a medieval toilet.  Even minifigs need somewhere to relieve themselves.

My Kitchen Rules, 15th Century

Preparing breakfast, medieval style.  Years ago Tim Gould gifted me a big bag of 2 x 2 light bluish gray tiles and never have they been so useful.  Thanks Tim!

OK, so the chef's hat might be a little off as far as medieval headware is concerned, but you can't tell me you don't know who the head chef is in this picture.

I wanted to add as many kitchen objects as I could and was fairly conscientious of how the kitchen would work in reality.  Of course I couldn't cover everything.  There is no oven and no way to dispose of waste.  Maybe that's what the pig is for...

Interior 2nd Floor

Flare Michael Bay would be proud of

I wasn't going to include this shot at first, and I definitely won't post this on flickr.  This shot was taken in the same photo shoot as the last post.  At this stage the second floor interior is largely unfinished but it gives you a fair idea of what I have to work with.  It also provides a glimpse at how those windows work as well.  The doorway, although vacant here, already features a brick built door which will feature in a later post.  Check out my next post for details on the completed right hand side.
