Ninja Showdown at a Japanese Tea House

Here's a new MOC from brickshelf user DARKspawn [gallery here].
It shows a scene from medieval Japan, wherein two groups of ninjas face off outside a tea house.  I really love the clever curved roof design on the tea house.  Also noteworthy is the landscaping, especially the waterfall and the staircase set into the rock.

Green Dragon Inn

Check out this MOC from Matthew Hurt [gallery here]

It provides a nice home away from home for traveling Green Dragon Knights.  Since they're so new to the LEGO realm, I'm sure they're traveling a lot these days to explore things.  And what better place to relax after a hard day's slog?  It certainly looks cozy and festive inside!

I particularly like the deer (or possibly moose, elk or wapiti) head mounted over the fireplace, and of course the boys throwing rocks at the chicken (a classic!).

Resting Outlaws

Check out this MOC by ElephantKnight. [gallery here]
It shows a few outlaws enjoying their spoils.  Of particular note is the clver use of the pig piece.  Mmmm, I love BBQ!

P.S.  Sorry for the break in there with no posts, I was out of town.  Resume regular posting!
