mephistopheles Posted February 13, 2017 Hi there! As mentioned in the title: work in progress. Niether the terrain nor the buildings are finished yet. There is a LOT OF work that needs to be done. So this is just a teaser :) IMG_3063 by Mephistopheles, on Flickr IMG_3066 by Mephistopheles, on Flickr IMG_3068 by Mephistopheles, on Flickr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TitusV Posted February 13, 2017 You choose your words very well: this teases me a lot to see the finished MOC! The two houses you already have look great, though I would recommend to put one at angle to avoid a too blocky feeling. And are you going to tile the roof of the second house? The ladscaping looks great, welcome back! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mephistopheles Posted February 13, 2017 Thanks! Yes I am going to tile roof of the second house, I just ran out of tiles and need to wait for more to arrive. I agree with the angle idea. The first house = Tavern will be angled as soon as I got the terrain ready under it (the terrain under the houses will be tiled). The terrain will change a lot, I will add a lot of plants, bushes, trees, flowers and what not to it. However I first want to finish all the buildings, adjust them and only finish up the terrain after every building is in place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I understand, when tiling large surfaces you can run out of tiles waaay too quickly Of course you will add vegetation. Otherwise you wouldn't have an "all hail Avalonia" in you signature Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoth33 Posted February 13, 2017 Great job. I really like your choice of colors and the look of the buildings. The roof on the second house reminds me of Vikings. Really nice textures and I like the landscape so far especially the stream. Keep up the great work cant wait to see the finished project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blufiji Posted February 13, 2017 You are not messing around with this build! What you have so far could be a build in and of itself! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henjin_Quilones Posted February 13, 2017 When I saw it I thought that it must hail from a northerly part of Avalonia, near Mitgardia, since there seem to be some very strong Germanic influences on the designs, with the colorful geometric patterns. "Bavarian" is the adjective that comes to mind, though someone from Bavaria would no doubt correct me on that. Looks good, and I look forward to seeing what you end up with. Be sure to take lots of pictures! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Be sure to take lots of pictures! It is located in Woodward which you will still find on an Avalonian map :) You are right with the Bavarian adjective, Bavaria did influence me a lot.

Brandon Stark Posted February 14, 2017 The build already looks amazing. In fact, it gave me some ideas for future MOCs. Welcome back to Avalonia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LittleJohn Posted February 15, 2017 This looks amazing already! I love the use of cheese slopes in the buildings, and the dark brown is a great color choice for the wood sections. Looking forward to how this progresses! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isundir Posted February 15, 2017 Looks insanely good so far. I must admit to be a bit jelous of both your parts and your skills Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted February 16, 2017 Certainly will be an impressive layout when finished! I love your use of cheese slopes in walls to form mosaics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garmadon Posted February 22, 2017 Awesome looking houses, I really love the colors and decorations you give them (that dark brown roof and the balcony in the taller house are especially great!), and I'm definitely looking forward to watching as you progress with it!
