The outside level was really just for show and tell. It serves no real purpose whatsoever, other than showing what I can do.
I agree with you that it looks a little unpleasant, but it really was just for viewing purposes, and I did make it a while ago.

To be honest, I think the plainer it is, the neater and tidier it looks, but the trick is not to go overboard on this.

I wasn't exactly trying to say this is how I normally level, I was experimenting.
My normal levels are a lot neater. These took stupidly forever to make.
