Study Sanctuary Among the Trees (finished entry) The message that a new satellite campus of the University of Petrea was to be built at Albion was received with great joy all across the people of Avalonia and was carried to Everwater by Sam Weatherstone personally. He himself is an engineering alumni of the University of Petrea. Quickly the idea came up among Sam and his friends at the court of Everwater to also contribute to this great effort to strengthen the education but also peace and exchange of ideas within the Guilds of Historica. Led by the Lord of Everwater, Alric Ellerion, ideas were plotted and money was gathered. Sam returned to Albion with soldiers as helping hands, stonemasons, carpenters and plans for a study sanctuary which were to be built with an open study hall on the same level as the crowns of the trees to allow for the study of the trees and birds, and provide a calm sanctuary for students and professors alike to study in. Construction started and the stonemasons of Everwater proudly showed their capabilites in building strong towers, that could even withstand the winter storms at the coast of Everwater. The carpenters recently started constructing the open study hall placed on top of the stone tower. Sam, originally a carpenter in his familie's business, just arrived to inspect the current progress. He and his teams are especially happy to have successfully constructed the winding wooden stairs that lead to the top level of the tower. This Challenge was great fun to build and I find the idea of learning new building techniques by having different challenges set in different Guilds and different building styles especially enganging and I am looking forward the next challenges! My main goal for this build was to properly contribute a small part of the story and apply the building technique for rounded towers/surfaces while depicting a lifely constuction site scene, I think I managed that and I am happy with the result. The winding wooden stairs was a personal challange I set myself and I am happy how it turned out and would love your feedback concerning it, among the feedback of course for the entire build :) Below you can see further images of the entire build and thank you to @Grover and the entire team for the work and organisation they put into the Guilds. Fulfillment of the WIP requirement for Category A When the theme and tasks of Challenge I Category A were published, my mind immediatly jumped to a classic round tower. The plan is to finish the small tower with a wooden structure on top, similar to an open pavilion, with winding stairs on the outside of the tower. The entire scene will be portrayed as a construction site, depicting the construction of the wooden pavilion. The tower shall be a study sanctuary for the students of the Avalonian campus.
