[OL-Royal Arsenal of Astrapi] Hospital of Asclepius at Astrapi

Recommended Posts

40181991814_f51871bbb2_n.jpgOL-Royal Arsenal of Astrapi: Hospital of Asclepius by Mike Mercado, on Flickr

This is the military hospital at Astrapi. Headed by Dr Ambrose Pare and Brother Antonin it has a unique blend of science and religion. While Dr Pare works on new and innovative medicines to combat both jungle afflictions and sea sickness, Brother Antonin and a group of sister work around the clock to provide care and pray with those who in need. 

There is an interior however I had time to only finish one of the two floors. I will post additions when the second floor is finished.

Side Note: Forgive my American naivety, the symbol on the hospital is the caduceus the common medical symbol in America. While doing this build I found out that we use the wrong symbol and that the rest of the world uses the rod of Asclepius as the correct medical symbol.

C and C welcome

Looking good! I like courtyard covered with round bricks, the main building is well built throughout, especially the symbol thingy. And the palm tree is a nice addition.

The hospital seems to be a busy place ... Very convincing build despite the symbol that was adopted in the 1900s its is portrayed very well.

Very nice build. I really like using the spears for the fence, and your medical symbol is well done and easily recognizable. The building is well done, and your use of studs to create details around the windows is well done.

Great build with some great details! Looks pretty busy and lively! Nice stone work on the building and I never thought about using spears for fences!

Thank you. I had to remember that this building takes place on a tropical island and not the main land.

Thank you. I know the symbol was adopted later than the period but I needed something to hint at it being a hospital. I took inspiration from some of the church run hospitals and adapted it to the BoBS Lore.

THank you. I had taken the comments for my gate house design and adapted them to a larger build. The fence idea kinda came out of seeing this picture https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_hospitals#/media/File:Guy's_Hospital00.jpg.

Thank you. Like I said above, the idea kinda came out of no where and I just rolled with it.
