The pieces will be a Farmhouse Barn, a two story Farm building (stackable in rows), and a tiny Farmhouse that can be used as Storage, and a Toolshed, or a Peasant's home. Concept of the three pieces: 2008.09.30 02:59 Deeza Editor Registration Date: 2008.06.03 Posts: 1,066 Location: Procrastination Very good work. I look forward to seeing your progress on this. 2008.09.30 14:13 Braggi Seigneur Registration Date: 2006.09.23 Posts: 287 Location: B.C. Canada This is something you should definitely go right to town on. Farmhouses will be very useful and we're going to need a lot of them given the terrain of the province. A question... do you have something in mind for a rustic cottage/hunting lodge as well? If you look at the northern Eltheric Coast on the prototype height map, there is a lot of very hilly terrain near Farrun that won't permit larger settlements. So, individual cottages and smaller lodges would be more likely to occur. Great concept work! __________________ 2008.09.30 22:57 The Old Ye Bard Princess Registration Date: 2006.05.25 Posts: 3,663 Location: Post-Feminism quote: Originally posted by Braggi This is something you should definitely go right to town on.

I can probably whip up a cottage fairly quickly 2008.09.30 23:02 The Old Ye Bard Princess Registration Date: 2006.05.25 Posts: 3,663 Location: Post-Feminism Farmhouse Barn, added a large window at the top, using the Zenithar cathedral window texture (seeing he is the agriculture god, it's a blessing for good crops, etc, and it means it can also double for a makeshift chapel). 2008.10.02 01:36 Senten Elder Troll Registration Date: 2007.09.22 Posts: 986 Location: Black Marsh Awesome concept & model TOYB __________________ Summerset Isles Forum "Di som här det iskalla trollblodet." \m/ -FINNTROLL FOREVER- \m/ 2008.10.02 12:50 Deeza Editor Registration Date: 2008.06.03 Posts: 1,066 Location: Procrastination Once again, excellent and rapid work! 2008.10.02 19:53 Braggi Seigneur Registration Date: 2006.09.23 Posts: 287 Location: B.C. Canada Excellent work TYOB. Couple of design questions here: 1. Would it be possible to create a version of this with double doors up on the second floor? I grew up a farm boy and the doors are how the farmers store hay and straw in the upper level of the barn for stable bedding and livestock feed. 2. In addition to that, any possibility of a simple rope pulley anchored near the roof peak, above the doors? Before electric or gasoline engines, such a pulley was an absolute necessity for getting sheaves into the barn - far less effort then pitching the stuff in by hand using a pitch fork. (I've done both and that second method is a back breaker! ) If it would add to great a poly load when added in to al the other items in a cell, I can certainly understand if you leave this idea out though. Thanks for the great work! __________________ 2008.10.03 23:21 The Old Ye Bard Princess Registration Date: 2006.05.25 Posts: 3,663 Location: Post-Feminism quote: Originally posted by Braggi Excellent work TYOB.

Thanks for the great work! While it may not seem like it, the first one is a lot of work, and would require me to remodel the entire Barn, which as you'd imagine I'm not the most keen on doing, and that sort of voids the second request. The time spent doing it, I could have finished both the other building concepts in this thread -it comes down to practicality, going back to change things slows down the momentum I've built up on making stuff for this mod, and right now what you guys need is a quantity of models, seeing as you have a sparce amount atm. 2008.10.03 23:49 Braggi Seigneur Registration Date: 2006.09.23 Posts: 287 Location: B.C. Canada Excellent points. Something occurred to me as I was reading your reply, that might be both workable and believable. I'm not asking you to do this, as an aside, just putting the idea out for consideration. If it is not simple or easily implemented, please do scrap it. What if the actual stained glass were the haymow door? In other words, would it be a major effort to add a simple set of hinges and a door handle or catch to the existing static? These would not need to be fancy, nor would they have to be functional - just for appearance and believability. __________________ 2008.10.04 01:00 Tree Structure | Board Structure Silgrad Tower: Oblivion » Visual Discussions » Archive » Archived Non-Silgrad » High Rock » Concept Art » Farmhouse Architecture Extension Set
