Thanks guys! :D Well, considering almost all of my other entries did make it to top 5 I'm not too worried about it. ;)

This didn't even make the top 5 0_o

Wow Mark, that nightshot is truly a beauty!

Wow! Great details. Love those columns and those windows :-)

fantastic!!

Stunning,truly stunning! The curves and angles on this Moc are really amazing! The floor is great and I love the Second picture with that wonderful light shine.

Beautiful stuff, Mark. The lighting is gorgeous:)

nice work, great lighting effect, superb detail.

This is a really amazing build!

Thanks for the nice comments everyone! :D Approximately 4 hours. :)

stunning :)

very nice

vey awsome creation.I like your technics and how you use the right bricks in the right place =D how long did it take for you to make

Beautiful, very realistic. Great photos, too. Thanks for sharing your cool creation.

Awesome techniques! :D

Excellent

Very nice and peaceful creation! Makes you wonder how the rest of the building would look like...

Thanks a bunch guys! :D I really appreciate all the kind comments! :)

Wow, this is so cool. Especially the stainglass. Well done.

Glorious stained glass window !>.....well done

Another jaw-dropping build, man. The recessed ceilings are perfectly detailed and that's the best use of the lion gargoyles I've seen yet. The stained glass windows are awesome and I love the shot with the light behind them. The floor tiles are great - is that SNOTing? Keep the awesome builds coming. "I never get tired of seeing another Ericson MOC show up on this site"

Mark you have really outdone yourself here. This is absolutely incredible

An amazing branch outwards from your normal style. I love the ceiling, floor, and walls especially... oh wait, that's all of it.

I love the sense of peace here - that top rail is excellent!

I think that second and fourth photos are particularly good. The stained glass in the darkness and the effect of looking up into the room are both wonderful. I like the use of the bannisters in the cornice too.

Wow, such lovely detailing!

I like the window technique.

An excellent build, brimming with npu and snazzy windows. (Although you're missing a yellow bit?)

I love it! Some great ideas for ornaments, I particularly like the use of those round fences. And the floor tiles look great too.

Wow! Very nicely done! Brilliantly designed and the lighting makes it even more beautiful. --Blast--

Wow! Just wow, Mark, I'm speechless. This is absolutely amazing.

Wonderful build Mark your interior is always so good you should do the Loreas throne room lol

Nice job! I love the mosaic floor

Great NPU for all the architectural elements! But to those others who commented... I believe the term buttress is used primarily for outside supports? Anyhoo, wouldn't this be magnificent as a large build! :)

Saw this on Flickr, but can't remember if I commented or not, so without further ado: Great job Mark! The lighting effect is very cool, as are the pillars and buttresses. A nice clean little build you've got here!

Pretty!

Wow! This piece of architecture is fantastic! I agree with Matthew on many counts, especially on the mosaics and pillars. Btw, would mind giving some of my less-popular stuff some CC? (note: I'm not a halo kiddie or anything, I don't even LIKE sci-fi.)

Great work with those columns Mark! Very corinthian. The buttresses look a little messy, but the pillars and the windows balance that out. Good luck!

Amazing Mark! This is just stunning! I love your architecture! You should do it more often! :D The stained glass windows look great, and the mosaics on the floor just add to the effect. Your pillars are magnificent! I love how you used those curved fences for an arch. Good luck!

You have architect's blood in your veins. This is a magnificent interior. The detail across the wall is stunning. Always impressive without fail.

I never tire of seeing a new Erickson MOC show up on this site. I'm always amazed at how quickly you're able to get such high quality work done. I think you must have the cobbler's little helper elves that show up and build these things for you while you're sleeping;) This is another major win for you. I love the fact that you can take a corner of a palace and make it so meaningful. I feel like I can picture the room that surrounds it. The stained glass windows look great, and the floor tiles are brilliant. I also love the shaping of the pillars. The whole work makes me think of something one might find in Hogwarts. Very well done, as always, Mark.
