Adventure Map Ship

This is the ship I'm working on for my first adventure map.  Obviously there's some things left to work on, but I'm happy with how it's coming along.  Critique appreciated =)

Trapdoor Shutters (2x2 windows)

Blocks Needed
4 trapdoors per window
1 house, obviously with windows


Step 1 
It looks better if you don't have windows next to each other, so the shutters from two different windows aren't touching each other.
















Step 2
 Place a trapdoor on the blocks attached to the right and left of your window.















Final
Close the trapdoors.  It looks a bit strange here since the door appears pretty small beside the windows, but if you have a large house it'll look pretty nice.


Pumpkin Scarecrow

Blocks Needed:
4 dirt
4 fence
1 pumpkin


Step 1
Get the four dirt blocks ready to have the fence and pumpkin placed on top. There should be a row of three on the bottom and one on top in the middle.



















Step 2
Place the pumpkin on the top middle dirt block, and one fence on each left and right side dirt blocks.
















Step 3
Replace the dirt block the pumpkin was sitting on with a new fence.





Step 4
 Replace the middle dirt block under the new fence piece with another fence.



Final 
Now you just remove the remaining dirt blocks and you have your scarecrow! You can do this with a jack-o-lantern as well to light up the area.  It looks really good in a wheat field.
