Luckypat Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) Hey everyone Decided to build a section of a library for GOH. The first floor has some bookshelves, desk and a statue. Second floor is more of a "cat-walk", which displays shields, weapons and the colors of Avalonia. As always, both positive and negative criticism is welcome. Thanks all for reading/viewing. ~Pat Edited February 21, 2016 by Luckypat Quote
gamejutzu Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Occidens... What is that? I really like what you did there with the chains up top and for the railings. This entire area look generally polished up and neat. Couldn't criticize such a content library. Unless there is a flaw which you see... Quote
The Steward Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Very nice!! Though I think a nice touch would be a couple books on the table. Quote
de Gothia Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Really lovely!! So many great details in that moc! Great work!!!! Quote
TitusV Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Lovely! So many details! If I had to choose one favoured, I'd choose the furniture! Quote
Elostirion Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Lovely library, what really stands out is how stuffed with details (e.g. the helmets or crown) the whole build is. Quote

Thank you, that's something I really tried to get in there with a small size build like this. Quote
Tezclatipoca Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Really good build ! Your attention in details is great. And that furniture is just cleverly designed ! I like those drawers atop the desk. Great job ! Quote
Rogue Angel Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Excellent build! Many little details and a ton of variety really make this stand out! I love the slightly raised walkway in front of the shelves with the chains, and the little shelf with the bucket handles is ingenious! Quote
Gunman Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Nice furniture there mate... Lovely done, I really like the use of the helmets above shelves. Quote

soccerkid6 Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Excellent interior, the first floor is particularly well detailed, with the clever chair and shelves, and armor in addition to the bookshelves The brown flex tubing holding the flags looks a little odd to me, perhaps some more traditional looking wooden rafters would fit better with the interior scene Quote

I was playing around with designs of a wooden support on the top but couldn't find something that I really liked. I see what you're saying, though.. thank you!

Kai NRG Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 Very nice build! I love libraries! The furniture is great and the entire room has a peaceful atmosphere! Quote
Blufiji Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) Really nice job on this, it's fullness of the interiors and the small touches really imply a library setting. Edited February 22, 2016 by Blufiji Quote

Full Plate Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 Very nice build! You've done a great job with the furniture, and the walls look really good too Quote
Asad Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 Beautifully detailed interior, my favorite part is the bucket handle drawers. :) Quote
Gideon Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Excellent build overall, and many nice details My favorite detail is probably the drawers on the desk. A piece of photography advice is that when you intend to remove the backbground it is a god idea to have something similar in color behind the build to avoid the "halo" of another color (in this case black or at least dark). It is also adviceable to soften or "feather" the edges a few pixels, particularly on areas which are out of focus to avoid the sharp cut look of the edges. But by far the least amount of work is to have a decent smooth background to start with so that background removal becomes unnecessary Edited February 23, 2016 by Gideon Quote

I'm starting to get used to Illustrator and learning the different tools as I go. Today, I'll be sure to look into how to "feather" the edges (And will remember to have a white background!). Thanks again! Quote

I personally like the brown flex hose there, I think its a nice touch. Overall, Great job! Quote
