Hi everyone,
I had to travel last week, so I wasn’t able to do as much as I’d hoped, but I will still show you the progress I’ve made on the new wood tier barracks.
Made from the same wood building blocks I spoke about before, the above image shows one of the accommodation buildings in the new wood tier barracks, further embracing our less permanent style for the wooden tier. The roof is another current option for how we may do the thatch, but as with last week’s option, this one hasn't been decided on yet.
(The building comes with its usual half-finished stages as it gets built by the villagers)
All of the materials you are seeing here are either unfinished or placeholders from previous art we decided not to go with, so much of the final look will be different. Most importantly, however, this is only one of the two accommodation buildings that the wood tier barracks will have, with a common building still in the works (see below).
(The white draft show the overall size the barracks will have, as well as the additional communal building that still needs to be created)
(The wood tier barracks we have so far - and which the new building is the upgrade to)
As I am building more of these placeholders, I am becoming more comfortable with Blender again, and have created a few common elements to be reused for the other buildings as well (at least at the wood tier). Hopefully, that means I will be able to speed their creation up a little, and I will keep you updated.
Until next week!
