Trelawney and Son, it says on our door - Turkeys, geese, chickens, and more! We offer the finest of fowl in town, a better selection than anywhere around!

So buy a plump hen, perhaps a fat goose, do come by and look, you surely can't lose!

Built for the Medieval Husbandry Category.

Hope you guys like it!

Fantastic build! Such a simple elegance!

What colour is the roof on the chicken coop and the 2x2 round tile on the barrel?

I think it's dark tan. :wink: Edited by Graham Gidman

I was going to say I loved the geese, but after opening the picture I was even more impressed by the turkeys. What an amazing build! Everything is great, but the variety of brick built birds is awesome!

Are the tree leaves just hanging from grass pieces? I usually have trouble getting the grass pieces to stay put by themselves, how did you manage that?

Best,

Julio

Really awesome small build. The colours and the life in it are awesome!

Congrats to the frontpage :thumbup:

Excellent build, Brother Steven!

The tree is my favorite part, with the curved SNOT branches and the draped foliage. The birds are all excellent as well. The landscape is perfectly quaint!

One small quirk, the roof edge over the door seems like it should be at the same angle as the roof. The gap in pieces and color difference makes the roof seem a bit unattached to the building.

Excellent scene! I think this is gonna be one of the category's with the most beautiful builds.

My favourite parts are the trees and the brick-built birds. Just excellent!

Good luck Steve! :classic:

I am not sure if this was done on purpose or not....or if others notice how detail-oriented this build is...but notice the two white ducks crossing the river. They both have different elements that make up the wings at their side. One (the one that just crossed the brook) whose wings look right close to its side and the others (one that is crossing the brook, in the water) whose wings are fanned out.

This is just like it would be in real life. A duck in the water often flaps its wings to speed up the process or avoid getting wet. Again, not sure if this was done on purpose or not but if it was.........genious.

Actually I believe that is Nougat, though I could be wrong.

Also, those tree leaves look amazing, but I can imagine how annoying they must be to deal with, they don't look very stable.

Thanks for the great comments everyone!

The coop's roof is dark tan as is the barrel's lid

Actually yes, it was intentional! I'm glad someone saw that. :)
