Hogwarts Hungarian Horntail

I tried to think of a part of hogwarts that would be awesome and challenging to build. At first I thought of the shrub maze in the goblet of Fire. This idea would be cool, but would be easy and repetitive. I settled on the least shown part of the castle, the dragon fighting arena.

The cliff side was built up, then I built the interior of the arena. I learned and invented many new techniques for terrain. Getting the cliff side to look rocky required problem solving due to my limited amount of pieces. I tried to make the landscape around the arena my own by not using any techniques I had seen before. I also tried to keep the outside looking good, but not distracting from the main part of the build. I believe I succeed in both of these. 
I do not own a lot of sand color pieces so building the walls around the castle was difficult. I wanted the tent to look as much like a tent as I could. To keep the fabricy feel tents have I used an actual fabric piece that’s from a bionicle. Thanks!
