Perterz Posted February 15, 2021 Training Grounds ‘This house located at the inner city walls, once occupied by a hard working farmer, became available as the poor man came to die. The army took over the property but instead of demolishing the house they transformed it into a recreational area, a place for soldiers to relax and have a drink after training. The surrounding area became the main training grounds for young soldiers, a place to discover their skill and choose their speciality in the army forces before going to specialized army training facilities. A compact but well equipped military structure was constructed next to the old house. The barracks contains a stable aswell, where knights and archers can use the horses for training.’ I was actually about to dismantle the WIP but since it wasn’t far from completion, I decided to finish it anyway. It also exists in digital form so I might release instructions for this build within a few days. Flickr Instagram Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many thanks, the house is all built sideways, ideal for the narrow wooden beams through the walls. 11 hours ago, natesroom said: i dont know how you guys do it, where do the ideas come from and where you start... Excellent Work. For me, most ideas start with a random image/atmosphere in my head. From there I try to visualize and fill in the details. Sometimes I draw a topview layout but mostly it’s just free building and the MIC evolves along the way. But anything can be a source of inspiration, random shapes & colors, other art work,..

That’s one my goals when building in angles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
koalayummies Posted February 16, 2021 What a visually gorgeous build. The tree, the overflow of the scene, the weathered look of the house and the texturing of the city wall are all sublime. Fantastic techniques, style and design throughout! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zoth33 Posted February 16, 2021 I love the texturing you got with the walls on the house and the tower. The plates in the walls of the house look great with the 1x1 round plates in there. The base has some nice rock work and the layering of the different colored plates makes for a nice effect. The tree looks wonderful with the 3 leaf plant pieces in the regular leaf parts. The roof also looks nice with the different plates and tiles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you, I’ve seen it done before and liked it so much myself I had to try it out. This build was the perfect opportunity to do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
