My dream home is located on a cosy tropical islet somewhere way off the coast. So way off that mermaids are rumoured to live in that area...

It's built very plain and straightforward, so I focused on all the small details that make this house so lovely. This includes a bunch of CMFs courtesy of Aanchir in this thread.

From the jetty a wooden perron leeds to a big green door flanked by torches. The landing is a superb place to enjoy fishing. On the top floor is a big patio with a beautiful view. Ideal to craft some nice paintings or to gourmandise some carb bombs. The latter attract of course some seagulls, too.

On the next picture we have a closer look at the top floor (with the roof removed). It mainly consists of a large bathroom with a convenient tub. A boombox (not visible from that angle), an antique lamp as well as a feature fireplace invite to loll in the hot soapy water. You also see some grapes entwining around the outer walls and a little monkey harvesting bananas from the palm trees. And if you look very closely, you'll recognize a lepidopterist.

Here we have a look at the main floor. A butler is fetching a new bottle of wine from the cellar, while a plumber is fixing the clogged mess in the lavatory. Vis-à-vis a nerd is slurping her cocoa in front of the chimney, while her kitten is demanding attention. In the corridor, a diva is admiring her trophy, while two girls play with their pets sitting on the floor between a large TV and a bed. On the lower left corner of this floor, a small but well-equipped kitchen is located: Cooker, coffee percolator, herbages hanging from the ceiling -- only some of the details visible here.

The cellar is well-stocked with all sorts of vegetables: Different pumpkins in the corners top left and top right (next to the chicken), jalapeño peppers and a cucumber on the window sill, boxes with cherries and carrots in the middle and barrels with wine and beer in the lower right corner of the room. On the stairs you see the butler again, while outside the lepidopterist as well as a climber are visible, and also a life-guard (next to the flume).

This islet used to be a pirate hideout some 200 years ago and thus has an ample cellar, where bats and spiders live. Some remains of the pirates are still present, such as a golden sarcophagus or the skeletons. The lattice bars are rather rusty, so that the guys fetched the welding machine to repair them. The barrels with bananas are, however, fresh. So fresh that some bananas aren't even ripe.

Since only six screenshots are allowed, here is a last picture to present some of the details from another perspective.

To get a better impression of all the small details not visible in the pictures above, you may download the LDD LXF file and examine the model en detail. Please note that I didn't bother if all the parts exist in the respective colours in real life, but rather focused on the overall visual appearance. Especially crafting all the green stuff made it necessary to exploit the freedom LDD's Extended Mode offers with regards to colours. I hope I stayed within the acceptable limits.

It's pure coincidence that the part count is exactly 2014. It wasn't done on purpose.

So funny! I love it! :thumbup: Good luck!

bbqqq renders are perfect!

So many palm trees, it deserves well a 3D image. (need blue & red glasses)

Good job! I made some rendrings for you.

Thanks for the renderings and the 3D image! They are marvelous. I really appreciate it. Guess I'll print them poster-size...

By the way: Has anyone of you figured out how to export from LDD to Blender to make a fly-by animation?

I just made four interactive 360° panorama (VR virtual tours), two little planet and a 4K UHD rendering. Have fun!

The pan0.net interactive panoramas require flash player. So to view on ipad you need browser like Puffin or so.
