soccerkid6 Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) This is my House, Phase 3 build for AoM. I'd like to receive UoP credit for: advanced SNOT [Architecture] (for the window designs), and mosaics, stained glass, or complex SNOTted floor designs [General Building (Other Techniques)] (for the SNOT floor and stained glass windows)= 2 credits This build was inspired by LL, Eklund, Sirens of Titan, and DNL. Credit for the corner pattern goes to LL. I used half stud offsets a lot in this build, and came up with some new window techniques/variations of existing window techniques. The building has a full interior as always. There are several large stone manors in Daydelon, one of the most elaborate belongs to the Hamr family. More pictures can be seen here: link All C&C welcome Edited March 24, 2014 by soccerkid6 Quote
kabel Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 First class techniques, very unique yet totally Soccerkid - I love it! Best thing about this have got to be the gables and the window frames though. So congrats on another amazing creation! Quote
Gunman Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 Lovely house Isaac, lots of different levels and nice mini "shop" also ;) Quote

Lovely house Isaac, lots of different levels and nice mini "shop" also ;) Thanks Gunman, and I'm glad you noticed the vendour's cart Quote
KristofBD Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 Same here. Window frames are very clever! Quote
janatale Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 Great work! I love the little cart, the red top looks great. The windows also look awesome. Quote
soccerkid6 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Posted March 23, 2014 Same here. Window frames are very clever! Thanks! It was quite difficult designing the first window, but after I did one it was pretty easy to do variations of the design Great work! I love the little cart, the red top looks great. The windows also look awesome. Thanks janatale! Quote
Infernum Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 What a great build SK! Sorry to keep you waiting with our Collab, I decided to join the MOCathalon on MOCpages and I've had lots of baseball games/practices lately. Rest assured though, I have the next build photographed, just need to post it! Quote

It's no problem that you've been busy with real life/MOCathalon. I've been a bit busier myself lately Quote
HammerBro Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) Stunning windows and the corners nicely accent it! Good job with the interior too; that flooring looks amazing. Edited March 23, 2014 by HammerBro33 Quote
mrcp6d Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 The framing around the doors and windows are indeed fantastic! I also really love that cart. Quote
Gideon Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Very nice stately home, a fitting phase III entry I agree with Kabel that it is a very recognizeable SK style, yet many nice new techniques! UoP +1 for the window frames and the stained glass (and the SNOT floor as well I suppose, although I don't think links should have to be followed to judge UoP claims...please include pictures of what the credits are claimed for in the post another time, but as it was the same credit as stained glass it's ok here ) Quote
narbilu Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 We windows are fabulous... still trying to figure out exactly how they are done. Secondly, sweet how it's done on only 28x28 studs... Quote

Thank you I do love those windows! Thanks The framing around the doors and windows are indeed fantastic! I also really love that cart. Thank you, I started off with just the dark bley framing, but then thought of adding the bley offset a half stud Sweet cheeses! Thanks Carson I love the windows, great job! Thanks Torgar! Very nice stately home, a fitting phase III entry I agree with Kabel that it is a very recognizeable SK style, yet many nice new techniques!

We windows are fabulous... still trying to figure out exactly how they are done. Secondly, sweet how it's done on only 28x28 studs... Thank you, to build the windows you: offset a bley 2x4 tile by half a stud using jumper plates to make the bottom of the window frame, the you use plate modified with rail on their sides to attach the dark bley framing and make the sides of the frame, then you just top it off with jumper plates set out half a stud. I'll probably take some pictures of how I did it when I take the build apart Quote
MKJoshA Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 I can't stop drooling. This build is a beauty. Absolutely amazing! I love the different roof designs, the corners of the house, all the interior details, and the perfect amount of snow. This makes me want to skip work today and just build! Quote
Hammerhand Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Very cool! Those windows are a nice touch. I especially like the 1x1 tiles around the top of the main tower, they give a really cool look to the roof. Quote

Gilbert Despathens Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Some of the hard lines and straight angles in this manor make me think of a modern architect's twist on Gothic, but that does not ruin the build in any way. On second thought, it also has some elements of Rennaissance homes, partly because of the decorative crenels. Whatever the style, it's an inventive MOC with several techniques I've never seen before.

mpoh98 Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Very nice job Isaac, the build itself is amazing! The offsets are great! I think it could look a little less bleak. Other than that, great work! Quote

Wedge09 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Really nice work :thumbup: I like in particular the frames on the angles of the buildings Quote
de Gothia Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 The irregularity on this moc is what I like the most! Angels, different floors and different roofs! Great work! I also really dig the wagon! Have to build one of those for Benoic! ;) Quote
