Ayrlego Posted April 17, 2022 The settlement of Brickford Landing is slowing expanding. Recently a blacksmith and his wife arrived and have set up a small forge in the settlement. Now residents of Brickford Landing can have metalwork repaired and smaller pieces commissioned as the craftsman plies his trade. A quick digital build I completed while overseas recently. Will be licensed as a medium artisan in Brickford Landing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The tree is also well built, I can imagine that it took a lot of time to build. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evancelt Posted April 17, 2022 I like the shape of the building and the triangular roof for the furnace. Those stem leaf trees take a while, but the result looks good! Compared to your physical brick builds, the photo is more evenly lit and it makes it appear somewhat less lifelike. Fun to see this style of base built digitally Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roadmonkeytj Posted April 17, 2022 What setting are you using for the glowing lantern and fire ... I've not had any luck with the lighting effects. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LM71Blackbird Posted April 17, 2022 Another nice addition to Brickford Landing! The "L" shaped building with the forge in the center has a satisficing symmetry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was a total accident! I put some trans-light blue in the bottom of the trough to simulate water, but when I rendered it the whole trough glowed blue. On investigation I found that Stud.io has two types of trans colours - normal and 'Glowing neon - render only'. I'd selected the blue glowing neon by mistake. I fixed the water (which probably explains why when rendering the water in this MOC my computer kept crashing - I bet I had glowing on...) and decided to try the effect for the lamp and forge. Works well for fire, not so well for water! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
