Good structure,but not much going on.

Very good.These roofs eat so much parts. :S Figs and Interior would've given you victory over tristan.

ok you guys made it close... but my vote gos for JOE B!!!!! Tristans may have had better photography but your build had a look that was very unique... boxy and geometric and a cool castle-ish way... just perfect.. the ground is is great and the roof is great! my vote is for you joe

Ooops, MOC #2 is next in line for rethinking... maybe I could add a spaceport. :)

This is a tough one for me. Joe, your photography is just a little off focus at times. There isn't any action in the MOC and the inside of the building should be finished off. The minifig at the bottom is doing something, but I can't tell what exactly he is up to, I'd like to see more minifig action or some sort of definite story that is being told. Because of the great construction here, all of that would put this one over the top. I really like the overall size of this MOC, good color and solid construction. I love the rock wall and the stairs are over the top. A little more color would do this a lot of good. I am going to reserve my judgment for just a few minutes as I look at Tristan's. Regardless of my vote, brick for brick, this is a great little build. ~dave

Joe, I gave my vote to Tristan. Brick for brick, your construction had him beat. What gave him the edge is the action, the story/explanation and clear photography. I love the irregularity of those stairs! For the next round I would really like to see more movement and story. ~dave

Fantastic! I love the windows, stairs, and rock work. I think it could use some green, and the interior might need some detailing, but you did a nice job.

Wonderfully done, both of you!! It was extremely hard to decide, but my vote goes to Tristan. Again, great job you guys!

Oh man you guys, why do you have to make it so close? =) I'll be back with my vote, but I need time to think it over.

very nice stairs by the way

I chose Tristans moc but that doesn't mean I don't like this one, I like the solid look of the building, nicely build on a cliff. But it's missing something, the building is empty, it would have been better if you made a nice room inside the tower. Anyway, good job, good luck, after all my vote is only 1 of 3 so it's not over yet, keep it up

You were so right this is going to be a close round :) May the best man win.
