SilentWolf Posted October 8, 2017 In Arlinsport, behind a low decorative wall, there is a massive building built in much the same style as the rest of the city. In front of the wall is part of the exquisite landscaping that is known of Corrington's crown jewel in the Sea of Storms. Perfect shrubbery and trees layed out in perfect lines for all those passing by to enjoy. Behind the beautiful wall, the landscaping is equally perfect, including a fountain revealing the business of the owners of the building. In addition, the colors flown on the building reveal this to be the orderly and perfect headquarters of the East Terran Trade Company. Today the manager of the headquarters, Mr. Bartholomew Antonius, is returning from a meeting in town to find out that he has a visitor waiting for him. Mr. Arthur Kellogg of the Wolf's Equine, Trade, and Expedition Company, has arrived at Sir Micah's urging to request a favor for aid with keeping the shipwrights in Arlinsport honest in the order they perform their work. It appears, they have placed various projects ahead of others because of bribes and personal relationships while not informing the others involved that they would have to wait longer. It is a troubling affair that could use the influence of a nationwide group such as the ETTC to help solve. Here are a couple more pictures of the headquarters including the spacious interior with a large meeting room on the second floor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elostirion Posted October 9, 2017 Those trees work wonderful in this MOC (which is rare for these parts) - great work. The mini-microship is so beautiful, fantastic! Nice MOC overall, great to see your HQ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayrlego Posted October 9, 2017 Great wall texturing and I like how the roof matches several other of the MOCs we've seen in Arlinsport! The formal gardens also work really well and I especially like the design you've used for the benches. The green feathers sticking out of the bamboo pieces in the pot plants is also a really nice part use. Great work and a fitting Headquarters for the ETTC.

Kai NRG Posted October 9, 2017 Great headquarters build, the ship fountain is neat and very nice job on the interior! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Wolf Posted October 9, 2017 Great HQ! I love the angle of the first photo. As for the build, great texture on the building itself, and I like the color variation in the roof. Also, the general design of the walled property and courtyard is very good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Puvel Posted October 9, 2017 Lovely build! Especially like the garden bit, that fountain with the ship is very original. The statues with the flowers in them is clever as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is hard to find a way to fit the old molds in sometimes (trees, panels, big rock pieces) so it is fun to find ways that make them work. Thank you on the microship; it was my first attempt at a microship and I definitely used everyone else as inspiration.

The roof was the key feature that has popped up in Arlinsport a lot so I was trying to work it in. I am not sure how the tan goes with the roof style, I fussed with several other ideas for roofs because of my lack of love for the combo. However, in the end I didn't come up with anything better. The benches are the same piece that I used in my desk, and I though they worked well at making the bench less boxy. Glad to finally knock this off my to do list and now the ETTC can soar to greater heights!

The first and second photos were my favorites but obviously the first shows more of the building so is a better overview. I have been trying to improve on the angles of the photography though I am still learning, so feedback like this helps. On 10/9/2017 at 5:07 PM, Puvel said: Lovely build!
