I can't even expalin how awesome this is, Paul! Crazy good job. Keep up the great builds :)

I love the architecture of the dome. The curved retaining wall stood out to me too, and of course Bombur's hair looks great here.

Aw, man! You had me going! For a second I thought that Bombur's hair was removable! Lol, great work, I really like the color scheme, and the rockwork is impeccable! Not to mention the great architecture!

Superb work all around. A+!

Love the tree. Great build Paul! -LB Senior

An exceptionally nice-looking build. The clean colors are wonderful. Great techniques on the base of the dome and the roofs (rooves?). And the rockwork is fantastic.

Awesome Paul! This is AMAZING! I really Bombur's hair!

Bombur? What Happened?

Wow! These question-marks almost don't look Lego!

Love that rockwork and the color scheme. Clever with Bomburs hair.

a lovely creation !>.....well done

Awesome looking rock detail! Great work.

I like all three domes... hee, hee... and the tree roots! :)

Amazing work Paul! I love the snotted rockwork! Actually, there is so many amazing techniques in here, it would take a while to name them all! The water, rockwork, curving rockwork, curving wall, etc. :D

Wow Paul, the texture and color usage here is simply stunning! Love the use of the medium dark flesh and the minifig. Cheers~

Mission accomplished. The curved rock work really shines and the monastery is has a great blend of simplicity and details. Great job!

Nice job Paul, the rock work is excellent and the monastery is well built. Heh, clever mini-fig too, though I can't say I'm impressed with the modifying aspect...I also think photographing it on a different colored background would've been a nice touch, as the whites tend to blend. But aside from those little critiques (mostly based on my preferences), this is a beautiful build. Well done pal!

Being a landscaper, my eyes are immediately drawn to the stunning rockwork and beautiful tree (even if it was a last-minute thing). But the monastery itself is almost perfect in it's simplicity--just the other day I was contemplating uses of the medium dark flesh color. You have pulled this one off masterfully!

Beautiful! The color scheme makes everything feel so tranquil! Bombur's hair makes perfect monk hair :D

Terrific work Paul! Love the rockwork, the architectural style of the monastery and the little details, such as the tree, growing in the rock! - K.

Nicely done! That curved rock bit turned out great!

Wow, Paul - nice work! Something about the balance of texture, color, and form in this that just sings. Can't quite put my finger on it other than to say that it's a beautifully clean aesthetic. But, whatever the case...well done!

Beautiful work on this, great one.

excellent rockwork, that monastry is fantastic!

Crazy work! Lots of great part usages and unique colors and shapes. Love it all! I must try to sketch some of my bigger projects and see the results I get. Nicely done once again!

Incredible....
