A large build (perhaps a little too large if I am being honest), but there’s no denying the time and skill it took to make this and to shape it into a really good looking bank. I especially liked the interior of it (although the vault I found to be a little plain).

Awesome build!

I love how this build not only followed the theme, but in included a minecraft theme of its own! While differing from the normal “marble” or stone bank, this bank had a lot of character and a lot of small details that I liked. One small thing is that it was hard to get a good look at the front with a hill blocking the way.

Nice build!

#**Bronze**

I really enjoyed this build and how well it fit with your town theme. I also loved the small elements you added, in particular, the granite in the brick walls. A similar block.. but different enough to give it some character.

Nice build!
