A Peasant’s Castle

If you were a medieval peasant, would you prefer a cozy hut in the village, or a windmill in the countryside? Though it may be a bit drafty, I think I’d pick the windmill. At least, I’d pick this one, built by Sandro Damiano! With its quaint cabin and cobblestone path, it’s a peasant’s castle!

Sandro does a great job of capturing all the little dimensions and levels. It keeps your eyes wandering around the scene. This garden is full of tasty veggies to take to the market!

In addition, I particularly like the unique use of parts that give it that rustic feel. For example, the hand-tools creating the iron bracing on one of the doors:

Also, have you found all the critters yet?

Alas, we can only imagine how wonderful the interior might be, as there are no pictures. But once that’s sorted out, I’ll be ready to move right in!

Sandro has many more wonderful creations with impressive detail. Keep an eye out for future features!
