ion and Pommes, you two are very talented. Every time (and i do mean every time!) that i see the amazing creations you make i go through a process of awe at the builds, anger at you because you can create things so pleasing and elaborate, sadness because i dont have the talent, and then finally awe again.

What i like the most is that even though things aren't "perfectly symmetrical" or "even" perchance, the buildings are seamless and wholly unique.

I love it! :P

That's pretty awesome dawnraider!
I love the contrast of the white stone (I think?) and the bookshelves.

Very nice build Dawnraider
What texture pack do you use?
Phantom screams echo through the ruined facility
A horrible silence builds an eerie tranquility
The souls of many innocent fill the air
The hope they all died with scattered down there

Finally reached a point with my base on the server I've been playing on for the past so many months that I feel like sharing it. I still have a lot of aesthetic work to do (including essentially everything that isn't pictured here) but I think I've decided on an aesthetic I like.

EDIT: And one more, because why not: https://imgur.com/a/KsKko
EDIT2: I just realized I left out one of my favorite things in this base! How could I do such a thing!? https://imgur.com/a/ToLZm Unfortunately it's not padded (yet)

(Btw, the texture pack is Mesh's mix)

Yeah, the whole thing is white stone and white cobble (It took about 30 stacks of end stone to make the whole thing). And the texturepack is Conquest.

Here is a pic showing off my simplistic Windmill Design as well as a good portion of my favorite base.

I had tons of hemp before getting to a stoked cauldron for glue (which only happened recently), so I decided, why not make a vertical windmill for the hell of it!

I restarted recently due to continuing problems with my old world, and I've decided to try and pretty up my hovel with some wood flooring and trim. Really helps make it feel like less of a hole-in-the-ground despite it being literally that. =)

Where's the sacrificial chamber? If you have farming deities you need one.
Then you need to invite a friend to see your world. And sacrifice him.

Can't. Accidentally sacrificed myself in lava, along with 5 stacks of hemp seeds. I'm out in the middle of nowhere atm. Shedding blood will have to wait.

That statue is pretty cool DiamondArms, clever use of the iron gates.

I've made a variety of windmills in my time, and found one design that I really love the aesthetic of. Trouble is, it's too small to be really useful. So I recreated it in Creative and I'm trying to expand it to make it more useful, but I feel like I'm not doing a good job with it. Ah well. On the right is the original, and the left is my attempt at embiggening it.

Wow Caevin! That is amazing. Certainly the most beautiful windmill i've ever seen. And also the biggest, mine are usually tall and thin or short and fat..

I put there a screenshot of my new attempt playing this mod (the previous one was 2 years ago, when I ended up crafting soulforged steel tools and armor). This is my "base" where I can live until I acquire enough materials to build something decorous.

Rather a bold move building your base that near to a jungle and the ocean XD. Out of curiosity why do you have the lightblocks if the hemp is outdoors? They grow just fine in sunlight.

Well, with the lights, they also grow at night, aka double as fast.

Thanks for the praise Aetherius, I like your little place too. Seems like a nice oasis. As Dawnraider said, bold putting it next to a jungle, I bet that gets fun sometimes.

The idea of a windmill on a floating island seems awesome Ancilangeli, but I've never gotten around to making one. Congratulations on reaching automation level though!

This here is a chicken coop. I tried to find a compromise between having chickens entirely on hoppers but still make it look somewhat coop-like, with mixed results. I have to feed them manually, and despite being surrounded by glass blocks they appear to pop out sometimes. Alack.

If your chicken coop doesn't have big ass spiders, then what are you even doing?
