kaiju Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 (edited) A Conversation heard in Haven: "Did they have to build it like that?" "It's a lighthouse. It's s'pposed to be all tall and stuff." "Right." "But?" "Did they have to make it look so evil?" Looming over the Horns is the lonley Black Tower lighthouse, inhabited only by the mysterious woman who operates it. While all in Haven are happy to see the light of it's beacon, few like to visit the grimly foreboding structure. Whispers abound that the Lightkeeper worships some dark patron, and that the tower is truly more of a shrine that just happens to require a freshly kindled flame. Details behind the Spoiler.

Dukesc Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 Your lighthouse is very well done! That landscaping looks really good too! Quote
Capt Wolf Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 Lighthouses are all the rage these days! Great rockwork! I like that you've got some tan in addition to the light and dark grays. And the design of the lighthouse is appropriate for the era. My only complaint is that the black makes it hard to see any detail on the tower. Perhaps we could get some close-ups of the tower and the mysterious woman. Still, nice build. Quote

I'm glad the rock work is being well received after spending most of the day working on it. Seriously, building the tower? Half an hour, 45 minutes-ish. Rocks? All freakin' day. 4 minutes ago, Capt Wolf said: Lighthouses are all the rage these days! Great rockwork! I like that you've got some tan in addition to the light and dark grays.

I was originally going to use white for it, but I don't know how to not make white super bright with my rendering software. I'm about to add some LDD screenshots showing some of the details to the original post. Quote
blackdeathgr Posted December 15, 2017 Posted December 15, 2017 I really like it (and that awesome rock-work), despite that sinister looks of it! I wouldn't be surprised if a cult emerges from it though Quote
Kwatchi Posted December 16, 2017 Posted December 16, 2017 Very creepy Kaiju. Perfect for Haven. I like your choice of adding colour to the grey to break up the rockwork. It came off very nicely. Quote
Bodi Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 Impressive build, the rocky point looks fantastic and the all black lighthouse suits well to searats. Quote
Bregir Posted December 17, 2017 Posted December 17, 2017 Great looking rockwork and very ominous looking tower, Kaiju. The rocks look very jagged and dangerous, making it clear why a lighthouse is necessary, and I think the specks of colour works really well. The tower itself has a nice layered construction, making it look fittingly sturdy for what looks to be a dangerous location. One wonders what is really going on in there, though... ;) Quote

SilentWolf Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 A very foreboding lighthouse with its dark colors. It might not be super visible during the day with that coloring. I like the style and structure of this lighthouse as well as the great rockwork. Quote
Puvel Posted December 18, 2017 Posted December 18, 2017 Lovely rock work indeed, the variety in shapes (the corner with all the cheese slopes is my favourite) and colours is nicely done Quote
