Originally Posted By Bolna Looks like they are really making some progress. I would hope that the trees are indeed only placeholders - however on the right side of the Beast's castle there are light green stumps - which also look like place holders. Why have two different ones. I also think that the Beast's castle starts looking much more realistic as more of its surroundings are appearing. EE, I would not be too worried about the transition from Village House to French cottage - those should actually look not too much different.
Originally Posted By ChiMike I think Beast's castle looks pretty simple and too small from a few angles. Not too impressed yet. I'm sure it will look better as part of an entire finished product.

Between you Chimike & Spirit, the MK will be closed like DL was in Escape from LA... Negative Nincapoop.
