Hello there! I took a look at your house, and here's what I think:

Overall, this is a very nice build. The interior and exterior are above average for a submission build, I can tell that you've studied Ponyville houses well. Despite the T-shape's dullness, I feel your interior makes up for it. Here's a few things I think you could improve.

 

Exterior:

• The overhang of the building could be used more sparingly.

• The roof's overhang seems to go a little too far at the front and back ends of the build; it looks like the straw's falling off!

• This is unchangeable, but the T-shape is dull and, like the L-shape I'm sure you've learned about, is overused.

 

Interior:

• The way your staircase from the ground floor to the first floor connects to the staircase from the first floor to the attic is a little awkward.

• More of a personal preference, but it appears that there's no floor, left wall or back wall to your bath! A real bathtub wouldn't expose its contents to the rest of the building. It's clear that you've done this so that the bath does not leak - a bookshelf on the floor below the bathtub can prevent this.

His review is fine. The only thing that can get you in trouble if you tell the cmc where to place stuff. Eg. "The windows go there, the kitchen there..." ect ect

There's nothing wrong with specific reviews, as long as they are not direct instructions.

This may be the wrong place to say this, but hepolite- you said not to use pink. Ponyville houses have pink in many places if you look at pictures of them; window frames, door frames, these sun guard things that I don't know the name of. My point is that it's accurate, should it not be done?

Ah, I was more referring to those walls made out of pink wool, or those who use an excessive amount or just plain and simple misuse blocks. I've seen that happen way too many times. Of course, a few blocks for decoration wouldn't hurt at all. I realize I could have worded that sentence better, I'll make sure to do so in the future.
