Ayrlego Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 With her new official 'City' status, Jameston is fast becoming a major trading hub in the East Prio Sea. As more and more merchants flock to Jameston each trading cycle hoping to make it rich through trade deals, the settlement has recognised a need to support them. Thus a large trading house was planned, where merchants, ship's captains or company factors from all nations can meet together and buy and sell cargoes from all over the brick seas. In recognition of Eslandola's superior mercantile reputation and to honour the special relationship between Celestia and the Eslandolan colony of Otoño, the trading house has been named 'The Autumn Trading House' and one of the distinctive red foliaged trees that Governor Guilder sent to Governor Allcock has been planted out the front. The facility is provided to merchants from all nations on behalf of the settlement, free of charge. -------------- A large commerce for Jameston. My original plan was to build a 'green' commerce property for Jameston then a 'red' educational property for Hojaroja (Yep, I haven't finished building on Hojaroja yet!). I will probably still do this, however I really want my gift builds for Hojaroja to be real brick, so it will probably have to wait a bit! The carriage included in this build is not entirely my own design, but is a modified version of a carriage I found in the LDD designer gallery. Quote
LM71Blackbird Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Fantastic looking build @Ayrlego! I really like all the timber frame work as well as the stone foundation and the dark green is perfect! Nice job on the tree as well! Quote
blackdeathgr Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 WooooW! You excel both in brick AND in LDD after all! Gorgeous looking building. I love the idea behind a "House of Trade". P.S: Can we have a close up of the carriage? It looks really promising from afar...! Quote
Elostirion Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Simply and absolutely fantastic. My girlfriend wouldn't even believe me it's digital... Marvellous colour choice, those two greens mix perfectly. The window frames in the lower floor are brilliant. Fantastic wall texturing, nice fence, nice tree, flawless roof (amazing mix of colours for the roof), nice carriage. No criticism from my side, just amazement. Quote

Way to go! Great build, the brown and offset green of the second story look very nice, and so does that tree beside it. The carriage and the minifigures add some life to the scene. Nice work! Quote
Darnok Posted February 10, 2018 Posted February 10, 2018 Wow! What an impressive build! The architecture, the colouring, the details, the scene in front... perfection all around! Absolutely incredible, well done! Is it possible to get some more detailed pictures of the carriage, the lower level windows and the brickwork (both grea and green)? Thanks in advance! Quote
