Hi, pleased to present the latest Æmiliabricks Lug work, a typical farm of our country. It required a long work and many buckets of pieces. This version is a work in progress as we still have to refine many details. Hope you all enjoy it.

Fatu Hiva, Ile D'Or, July 619 After the dark happenings of the previous months, life in Fatu Hiva returned to normality. Patrols of soldiers and groups of native warriors started a fierce hunt against the bands of fanatics still infesting the jungle and, even if some of them may have escaped, no new attack was reported. The economy of the settlement flared up again too: the natives returned to their fishing activity, while the plantations outside Fatu Hiva were repaired and expanded, allowing the recovery of the brewing activities. This little vineyard was bought by a foreigner, a Varcosian, who invested a large sum of money to expand the plantation. A little is known about this individual, but he is rumoured to have earned his fortune during the successful expedition in the jungle. While up to now the vineyard is sufficient for the requirements of the settlement, the Varcosian has imported seeds of Oleander grape, in order to expand the business and export wine and spirit in the archipelago. Today, the workers are cleaning a part of the hill from the undergrowth and are building new terracing. By sure, even if a lot of time will be required for the first profitable harvests, starting a vineyard near to the Oleander capital of alcol production is a wise investment. The herd of a native shepherd is very useful to remove herbs and low bushes... ...while more robust plants are removed with more resolute methods. Meanwhile, other workers realise the terracing for the new plants, planting poles in the ground and shovelling away the earth. Overall view The sheep And the "mysterious" owner, one of Tristan's followers during the expedition against the fanatics, in which absolutely no treasure was found. I will license this build as large plantation (instead of using a micro) as prize for the last challenge.

Trador is not only known for its applecider, it has also some of the best wines of New Terra: the Casa De Flores, famous for its unique aroma. The vineyard is a very popular attraction in Trador as visitors can follow a guide around the vineyard and drink some wine afterwards. Today, the soccer Teams of Prio, Royal Garvey Engineers and MAESTRO Engineers are visiting the vineyard. Meanwhile Lord Maximilian Damaximus and his wife taste the latest production of the wine. --- Thanks for watching! C&C welcome :) Will be licenced as a Large plantation This module is to be placed behind the Trador Merchant Quay (pictures of this somewhere in the future :p )

My 7th entry into the CCC XIV, for the Small Miscellaneous category. The colorscheme was inspired by Legopard and Brickvader’s Venice. I wanted to try something a little different from the typical vineyard, so I decided to do a wall and tower surrounding it. Harvest time brings plenty of activity to the vineyard as everyone works together to gather the ripe grapes. Contests to see who can harvest most are common, though some take a more relaxed approach.

[OL - Collab] Château Richemont - A Royal Vineyard on Le Bellan
Kolonialbeamter posted a topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
This is a collab build by Captain Genaro, Phred and myself, to create a royal plantation for Breshaun. It's been in the making for quite some time, and it was fun seeing this project evolve and result in something even bigger than a mere license. But more on that at another time. For now... Welcome, fellow BoBSians, to: Château Richemont - Royal Vineyard and Hot-Spot of Le Bellan's High Society Embedded in the gently rolling hills that surround the city of Breshaun lies Château Richemont, towering over the valley of the Zeusrun River as a beacon of Oleander noblesse. The estate was founded about half a century ago by Pierre de Bourdeille, youngest son to the Comte de Richemont. With no chance of inheriting his father's titles and lands in the old world, he was one of the first noblemen to make Le Bellan his home. Profiting from his family's proud tradition as prime winemakers of the realm he immediately recognized the potential the nearly ideal climate in the region offered to cultivate rich and heavy grapes, enabling him to create excellent wines, such as the Bleaunote Royal and the Terrechéri Noir, that even regularly make their way to the Courts of Granoleon. Today, the chateau is not only a leading wine producer, but also a bustling center of noble Oleander lifestyle on Le Bellan, famous for its exuberant banquets and glittering balls regularly held throughout the year. In fact, the next festival is about to commence. And some notables have announced their arrival - rumored to be sent by the Intendant Général des Finances himself - and interested in big business... About: Footprint is ca. 175x200, piece-count 25000+ (this almost killed my PC ) All the vines are placed by hand, so there's no copy-paste, no repetitions involved - at all. Most trivial thing I've ever done in LDD Same goes for the pathway texture and the gravel... So it might look easy, but I can assure you I lost track of the hours I spent on this. Oh, and of course as always all bricks exist in the colors presented. I would have loved to go on building, but in the end every additional brick was a fight, I had so many LDD crashes making me rebuild things over and over again... so the figs were left to for my co-builders. Thanks for watching this first part C&C welcome Vive le Roi! -
Life in a vineyard - D'Offren vineyards at Breshaun, Le Bellan (FB
blackdeathgr posted a topic in Brethren of the Brick Seas
It's time for grape harvesting at D'Offren vineyards, Breshaun, Le Bellan. Everybody is running up and down. Grape gathering, squeezing, tasting, putting into barrels and transferring them to a big shadowy cellar. Who needs rum when you got mother nature's sweet wine? P.S: Sorry for the lame photos (taken under really bad yellow lighting and cat continuously pulling the white tablecloth i am using), but i don't know if i have the time to build me any type of enterprise till the end of the month, and i wanted one licenced. If i find time till then, i will shoot the MOC again under sunlight (we do have plenty here in Greece when i am working ) Life in a vineyard by Spy Tha, on Flickr grape gathering by Spy Tha, on Flickr grape squeezing by Spy Tha, on Flickr fresh wine by Spy Tha, on Flickr olive tree by Spy Tha, on Flickr -

After three days on the road with their only stop being Bric'lin, the carriage finally comes to a swift halt on the road to Luosh, nearly tossing the heroes about. Outside the party can hear cursing as an armoured woman in armour opens the door for them to step out. "I swear to god, one of these days I'm going to kill that coach driver..." The party steps outside into the thick, humid summer air and takes in the Akrone Winery and Vineyard as dark clouds brew overhead. Behind the rows of bushes and grapevines, an old house stands erect, looking over the property. A few workers pick away, placing the berries and other fruits into baskets as another elf in fine attire watches them, her leather brown boots muddied from inspecting her vineyard. Turning around, she looks the party over, her eyes as blue as the sea. "Ah, heroes of Heroica, your arrival has been most anticipated. I am Sally Alicia Akrone, owner of the Akrone Winery and Vineyard, a Shadeux joint operation for the past five years. I hope your time with Lady Perin was bearable?" "Look, I don't got all day, Sally. The sooner you pack your things the quicker I can escort you to Luosh." Sally shakes her head. "Always on the go, Perin," she says dully, turning to heroes. The elf looks as if she's lacking sleep, and nervous, "Heroes, I have a problem, a big problem. My winery's been targeted by the infamous Alfendi Lupine and his gang of ruffians. I received his calling card about a month ago, with his intent not very clear. The manor's stocked with a variety of valuable items, most of which were my late husband's, but I've got a hunch he's after something more valuable: the vintage wine cellar. We collect and stock vintage wines, most of which are our own, but we have other, now defunct bottles in our stock. Every year as a token of goodwill, the Count sends out a bottle of our vintage wine, dating back about fifty years or so, to each of his associates, along with some other boons. If I lose that cellar, well... we lose our Shadeux contract. Of course, the thugs will most likely be after other valuables in the house, but if I lose the wine, I lose my company. Your job is to ensure that as little of my property is stolen, but if worse comes to worse, the wine is more important. Do you have any questions or concerns about your job or the situation at hand?" Sally crosses her arms, waiting for a response while Perin looks on with little interest. QM Note: Flipz, do you think you've got enough items? Welcome to Alfendi Lupine Strikes Again! As you can see, we have quite the mixed party here, with high level 30's interacting with a level 1. Check your stats, make sure their good, we'll get moving along soon. Lind, just as a refresher, to interact with anything, simply bold your action, like so. As well, there's a good chance I'll be away this weekend, so there won't be any updates on Saturday or Sunday, so I apologize in advanced if it takes a little longer than I anticipated to get into this quest's meat. Let's get this party started!
