It looks pretty good. You need a little more depth as ^ said. Try pushing the stone parts in the walls back 1 block. It creates shadows and that creates depth. Also, play around with the lighting at night. You can also create depth with lighting, because it creates shadows. The overall structure is pretty good, but the roofs need some work. You currently have it so that only the tips of the stairs touch each other on the edge. And the path looks too man-made. In a place like that, paths wouldn't look like that, they would usually have bits of grass growing all over them, with stones every so often, which creates a worn path effect. And for the windows, you should try using fences.

Sry, but I agree. It needs a bit more depth on the walls. And I play on a server that builds maps for hypixel so.......

seems pretty good,
but theres 2 things i need to point out
1. i personally am not a fan of the mixing cobblestone in walls, there are other ways to acheive unevenness
2. the walls have uneven texturing, but they are flat!
usually, really good builds have walls that are 2 layers thick. the inside layer is primary material, the outside is decoration, like the secondary, cobblestone wall, fence, stairs, slabs etc
this makes the interior very cramped, which is why those builds are so big to compensate

other than that, it looks interesting enough to try out! good job

Thank you everyone for your kind replies.

Pretty new here so yet to find the project section..shall have a look!

Branching into new areas is what I'm aiming to do. This was my first attempt at this nordic/medieval type theme. Inspired by a mix of Jamziboy and Madness64.

Also, the texture pack is Conquest.

Bumps should only be posted once every 24 hours of a post going live =p

However, back on topic, I like it. Or at least what is shown in this one screenshot. I'd recommend branching off this theme or building style and creating towns or some type of village or kingdom type deal as it seems to be working out rather well for you and seems to be your strong suit.

If you haven't already, try posting some of your work in the Projects section on the site, I'm certain it might get quite a bit of love for those who are interested in Noridc/Medieval builds.
