A note on the tree, since I see a few comments on it. I was trying to evoke a sense that the tree has grown out from and back into the cracks of the masonry supporting the stairs. Mainly to disguise the jumble of bricks holding up the stairs I also liked the fact that the entire section gives the sense that the building has been there a while. That this merchant is experienced (OR that he built his house in a declining part of town ) I hope the PoP sets will go into deep discounts next year so I can buy multiple sets to make a arabian bazaar.

Thanks LuxorV, I wasn't quite sure where to put the post.

Thanks all for the compliments. Definitely keeps me motivated to do other mods. Interestingly, my favorite piece from the set is the cloth canopy. For me it evokes the Arabian Nights bazaar feel more than the dome pieces or the arches. Does this piece exists in other sets and in different colors?

Thanks to the Prince of Persia sets, I have the pieces to make Vega from Street Fighter. This Vega is in my favorite alternate color for the character. The hairpiece is from the princess. I am also trying to figure out where I can find the golden-yellow (C3PO maybe?) and bluish-violet (I think one of the Harry Potter figures have this color) for his 1P color. Also, is there a figure with mask suitable for Vega?

I liked the building structure but not the wall section of the 7571 Fight for the Dagger. I was hoping the box will show an alternate model but since there was none I came up with this. This is my attempt to keep the main building and turn it into more of a house for the merchant. All the parts used are from the set (including the extras). I also removed the trap door and falling balcony gimmick. With figures and rest of the set:
