It's a very small cave which disappoints you when visiting it. You can hardly squeeze in through the entry, before it, there's a small natural arc. In the interior there's specific fauna, so also this cave is a part of the Natural park Lahinja. The water source on the other side of the hill is connected with this cave.
An entry into Global Challenge 10 in Lands of Roawia. For the Restricted Category under Preparation.
I went with more of an old school approach to this build, and rather like the result. The castle hinges open to show the full interior.

#BehindTheScenes
This month's entry on my 12 weeks project is about describing something behind the scenes. There is nothing better that expresses that than the moment that I dump my ideas into coding. Users only see the end result but the magic happens only when the developer codes the solution. I hope you like it :)
Thank you all for your appreciation.

And this is my entry for the Brick Architect contest 2010. It's Called 'Huis ter Dijk'.
This House is inspired by Dutch Architects like Willem Dudok who had a special style of building around 1930 (inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright).
Here are some of Willem Dudok his buildings:
'Huis Ter Dijk' is a large villa build on a dike near the imaginary village 'Blokhoven' (Brickville). It has a living room, study, 2 bed rooms wit 1 bath room, kitchen, garage and a pool. It's build by the famous architect Willy Dublok in 1930, so it's a state monument. The family who lives there now, has no rights to do anything that changes the building.
Here are some pics of the interior:

Off to the right - they are pouring a concrete slab on the building appendage that fell outside of the main perimeter.
The lines and shadows are from the trusses above that form the structure for the roof.
Terrific Thursday to you.
Locomotive 4023, built in 1944, was one of 25 "Big Boy" articulated locomotives. Designed in Omaha by Otto Jabelmann and his engineering team to support the nation's entry into World War 2.
It weighs 1.25 million pounds and has a pulling power of 7,000 horsepower at 70 m.p.h..
The last run of 4023 was July 20, 1959. Eleven days later, it was placed in storage in Cheyenne, WY. It was officially retired in 1962 after logging 829,295 miles. It has been on display in Omaha since 1975.
This space is a renovation project that I designed and installed.
All of the art was designed and fabricated by me...
See the publication of this online at: "A European Design Magazine" from 2008 but still online

Following completing my large Monastery/Temple model, I made an additional entry way to the village which it will be housed in. Models based on the 'Adventures' theme, with a few focusing on 'Orient Expedition', have been among my recent builds.
I will upload some further photos of additional models once I get a chance, including; Monastery, Steam Ship, Tracked Transport,

Waddesdon Manor is a country house in the village of Waddesdon, in Buckinghamshire, England. The house was built in the Neo-Renaissance style of a French château between 1874 and 1889 for Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild (1839–1898). Since this was the preferred style of the Rothschild's it became also known as the Goût Rothschild. The house, set in formal gardens and an English landscape park, was built on a barren hilltop overlooking Waddesdon village. The last member of the Rothschild family to own Waddesdon was James de Rothschild. He bequeathed the house and its contents to the National Trust in 1957. Today, following an extensive restoration, it is administered by a Rothschild charitable trust that is overseen by Jacob Rothschild, 4th Baron Rothschild. In 2007–08 it was the National Trust's second most visited paid-entry property, with 386,544 visitors. The Baron wanted a house in the style of the great Renaissance châteaux of the Loire Valley. The Baron, a member of the Viennese branch of the Rothschild banking dynasty, chose as his architect Gabriel-Hippolyte Destailleur. Destailleur was already experienced in working in this style, having overseen the restoration of many châteaux in that region, in particular that of the Château de Mouchy. Through Destailleur's vision, Waddesdon embodied an eclectic style based on the châteaux so admired by his patron, Baron Ferdinand. The towers at Waddesdon were based on those of the Château de Maintenon, and the twin staircase towers, on the north facade, were inspired by the staircase tower at the Château de Chambord. However, following the theme of unparalleled luxury at Waddesdon, the windows of the towers at Waddesdon were glazed, unlike those of the staircase at Chambord. They are also far more ornate. The structural design of Waddesdon, however, was not all retrospective. Hidden from view were the most modern innovations of the late 19th century including a steel frame, which took the strain of walls on the upper floors, which consequently permitted the layout of these floors to differ completely from the lower floors. The house also had hot and cold running water in its bathrooms, central heating, and an electric bell system to summon the numerous servants. The building contractor was Edward Conder & Son. The towers were modelled on the staircase towers of Château de Chambord. One of the twin staircase-towers inspired by those at the Château de Maintenon. Once his château was complete, Baron Ferdinand installed his extensive collections of French 18th-century tapestries, boiseries, furniture and ceramics, English and Dutch paintings and Renaissance works of art. Extensive landscaping was carried out and the gardens enhanced with statuary, pavilions and an aviary. The Proserpina fountain was brought to the manor at the end of the 19th Century from the Palace of the Dukes of Parma in northern Italy: the Ducal Palace of Colorno. The gardens and landscape park were laid out by the French landscape architect Elie Lainé. An attempt was made to transplant full-grown trees by chloroforming their roots, to limit the shock. While this novel idea was unsuccessful, many very large trees were successfully transplanted, causing the grounds to be such a wonder of their day that, in 1890, Queen Victoria invited herself to view them. The Queen was, however, more impressed by the electric lighting in the house than the wonders of the park. Fascinated by the invention she had not seen before, she is reported to have spent ten minutes switching a newly electrified 18th-century chandelier on and off. When Baron Ferdinand died in 1898, the house passed to his sister Alice de Rothschild, who further developed the collections. Baron Ferdinand's collection of Renaissance works and a collection of arms were both bequeathed to the British Museum as the "Waddesdon Bequest". During World War II, children under the age of five were evacuated from London and lived at Waddesdon Manor. Following Alice de Rothschild's death in 1922, the property and collections passed to her great-nephew James A. "Jimmy" de Rothschild of the French branch of the family, who further enriched it with objects from the collections of his late father Baron Edmond James de Rothschild of Paris. When James de Rothschild died in 1957, he bequeathed Waddesdon Manor, 200 acres (0.81 km2) of grounds and its contents to the National Trust, to be preserved for posterity. The Trust also received their largest ever endowment from him: £750,000 (£15,310,270 as of 2014).

In life all doors can either lead to the same point, or to another quite opposite. Our paths in life don’t need to follow any formula, although sometimes it would feel nicer if we received the secret directions up front. It would prevent a lot of frustrations and sadness if we knew which opportunities to accept and which ones to pass by.
From my sister's perspective....
"Master we've found the entrance to the Separatist base."
" Good stay put and wait for me to arrive, do not attack until I arrive"
" Its to late master we've been spotted"
just trying out some techniques while I brainstorm what to do with Ark Squadron.
Any Ideas?

Red moon (Todd spectre)
Todd was a man suffering from schizophrenia with two alt personalities Jason a child who wanted to be a superhero hero and Marc a insane man who enjoyed killing. In order to keep the personalities at bay he created another that mixed them together now a violent vigilante calling himself red moon. Now that he was a costumed crime fighter it made sense to him to move where the others lived leaving egypt and going to the us. However the only problem is sometimes his personalities take over and he losses control of them, his idea is to only kill the most evil villains but sometimes things get out of hand.

Here in Alaska, we consider this an Arctic Entry or in some regions a mud room.
These are crucial here in Fairbanks these arctic entrances create a temperature transition zone between entrance doors, in order to minimize the amount of cold air entering buildings by opening one door at a time.
Also, in this case acts as a diversion for the snow off the sloped main roof.
