Captain Blackmoor Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Today I have made the last details on my latest work: the Storehouse of Cochenheim! The build took longer then expected, because a lot of bricks were still in one of my Grumnite Village series, and they had to be photographed first etc. Anyway, now it is finished and I'm pleased with the result as it is my first Castle building in ages! The main picture. I love how the dark orange turned out. The left side, I've tried to combine stone and wood and several architectures in this building. It is all very sturdy and it looks good I think. A closeup on the roofing work, I'm very pleased with the result. It took some time to make it all sturdy and detailed as possible. Using dark brown tiles in there instead of reddish brown was a good choice as it looks more realistic now. And of course there is an interior! What would a storehouse be if you can't store anything inside? In the cellar, or dungeon, you'll find the armory and prison. On the lower floor there is a storage area with several shelves and crates filled with goodies. On the upper floor there is a huge shelf, pig pen, crane and many more. Enough space to store all the goods from the surrounding farmland and travelling merchants. Speaking of merchants, there we have one! A failed picture, but I like it's darkness. Thanks for watching! There is always more to see on Flickr! C&C always welcome. Quote
mikey Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) This is looking really nice, in fact the dark orange roof looks good enough to eat! I like how you put a door facing the front on the second floor to allow goods to enter through, although maybe the pigs should have stayed on the first floor? All in all this is a great looking MOC , and using the Islander hair piece for the top of that lantern looks perfect. Edited January 16, 2011 by mikey Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Very good-looking creation Captain Blackmoor! The dark orange roof really fits well the overall color scheme and the details are just wonderful to look at, both in the exterior design and inside. I particularly like the varying brown shades of the wooden side walls and the interior floors. Outstanding work! Quote
Admiral Croissant Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Nice job It looks very realistic with all those details and different techniques. I especially like the work around the windows. I also like the crane system thing with the chains. It adds a lot to the storehouse-feeling (just like all the krates and barrels). Quote
Sirens-of-Titan Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Wow! The roof/woodwork and masonry are beautiful! As a whole it's very realistic and tastefully done, great work! Quote
Skalldyr Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 I love the interior....so nicely done! But how about Photoshopping the background out? Quote
the Inventor Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Great work Captain, I really like the overall felling of your storehouse, especially the roof looks great, it's a really nice color to use. The interior you've made is also really well done, with all those different goods, but I find it a little odd that the people of Cochenheim, store prisoners inside there storehouses. And I would also move the pigs one floor lower, but apart from that it's a really nice MOC. the Inventor Quote
KristofBD Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Great work! I like the roof (amazing colour) and the interior most. NExt to that I like how you used the technic pieces to add more detail to the walls. Great job! Quote
lightningtiger Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Excellent structure 'Captain Blackmoor', great combo of stone and woodwork in the building - very detailed ! What more can I say but......Brick On 'Captain Blackmoor' ! Quote
Big Cam Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Fantastic Captain Blackmoor, this looks great. Now if only some Pirates would come and pillage. Quote
Captain Becker Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 What a piece of art once again Blackmoor All the details just strike thrue me, the inside looks fabolous and the outside is just fabolous looking also. I can just imagine some pirates trying to steal everything and getting kicked Great job overall, just wonderful piece of art once again captain. Captain Becker Quote
Ingrimm Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Wow, this storehouse is amazing. I love the upper floor's interior, it's outstanding! Quote
Niku Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 A beautiful MOC, I like much the interior. Also is nice to have a post at the top for the guards. Quote

Thank you very much mikey, I have been struggling with the pig pen but at the lower floor there was no sufficient space. It would take a lot of space and it looks odd through the large opening. Very good-looking creation Captain Blackmoor! The dark orange roof really fits well the overall color scheme and the details are just wonderful to look at, both in the exterior design and inside. I particularly like the varying brown shades of the wooden side walls and the interior floors. Outstanding work! Thanks Kiel! I'm glad you like my work! This is awesome. Haha, thanks Hive! Nice job It looks very realistic with all those details and different techniques. I especially like the work around the windows. I also like the crane system thing with the chains. It adds a lot to the storehouse-feeling (just like all the krates and barrels). Thanks Admiral! However I must admit it was quite odd to have a distinguished building used as a storehouse including pigs. The interior turned out better then expected though, as I was limited to a few bricks. Wow! The roof/woodwork and masonry are beautiful! As a whole it's very realistic and tastefully done, great work! Thank you very much Sirens Of Titan! My next project (to be posted within a few days) will contain some rare colours as well. I hope you will like that too. I love the interior....so nicely done! But how about Photoshopping the background out? Thank you Skalldyr! I'm glad you like it. But: What is wrong with my guitar?? Great work Captain, I really like the overall felling of your storehouse, especially the roof looks great, it's a really nice color to use.

And I would also move the pigs one floor lower, but apart from that it's a really nice MOC. the Inventor Thank you for your feedback the Inventor! The storehouse is a guards post as well, as there is an armory and a lookout post on top. The prisoner is just a thief or a highwayman of some kind. Great work! I like the roof (amazing colour) and the interior most. NExt to that I like how you used the technic pieces to add more detail to the walls. Great job! Thanks! I'm quite fond of these technic pieces as they indeed provide a good ammount of detail. Excellent structure 'Captain Blackmoor', great combo of stone and woodwork in the building - very detailed ! What more can I say but......Brick On 'Captain Blackmoor' ! No 'I'm a conformist!' this time? Thank you for your kind words lightningtiger! I'm glad you like it. Fantastic Captain Blackmoor, this looks great. Now if only some Pirates would come and pillage. Thanks BC! Lucky enough there are no pirates around here, but bandits, marauders, highwaymans and enemy factions all round! What a piece of art once again Blackmoor All the details just strike thrue me, the inside looks fabolous and the outside is just fabolous looking also. I can just imagine some pirates trying to steal everything and getting kicked Great job overall, just wonderful piece of art once again captain. Captain Becker A beautiful MOC, I like much the interior. Also is nice to have a post at the top for the guards. Thank you Captain Becker! The guard post is indeed a nice lookout over the surrounding lands. Quote
I Scream Clone Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 A really nice Storehouse Blacky. The dark orange roof looks nice, the stonework is well designed as is the scenery. Nice big storage area as well inside. Can I suggest you buy a couple of white cardboard sheets/posterboard to remove the bedroom background? Does my photos a wonder. Quote
-obelix- Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 Beautiful MOC, captain! Everything has a very realistic feel about it but I have to say that masonry and the floor boards are my absolute favorites! Quote
The Penguin Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 That is one awesome MOC, Captain Blackmoor! ) How could've I failed to notice before?! I just love those huge and highly-detailed creations that give a realistic feeling! Not to mention the great colour-scheme! ) Looking forward to seeing other MOCs from you! Good day, ladies and gentlemen! ) Quote
Mr.Brick Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 The main picture. I love how the dark orange turned out. That colour is amazing for a roof! Great idea! It so detailed, but large at the same time! Great MOC! Quote
Tabris Posted January 21, 2011 Posted January 21, 2011 The colour mixture is outstanding, but I specially like the interior, so detailed and realistic. Quote
Gregorovich Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Lovely building, Captain Blackmoor! I love the wall detailing, interior and the colour of the roof. Well done! Quote
TheLegoDr Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I really like that dark orange roofing. I definitely will have to use that idea in the future. The interior is spectacular. And the best part of all is the exterior groundwork! Quote
Hoboman Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 I like this building quite a bit. I agree with those who have commented on the roof/stonework. I really like how that turned out. I also liek that color of roof combined with that grey. Very nice. Quote
tootsman10 Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 I absolutely love the interior, the all wood is just perfect! Quote
