LCC-Lenfald-LC-Manek Asten's Home

Post by soccerkid6 »

This is the home of Manek Asten and his wife Eleonora. Manek is a captain in the Lenfald army and lives just outside of Stonewald.
Here he has Pepin oversee the construction of a stone wall around his house to protect it should war come:

Looks great, and I like how all the stone wall blocks are the same size. Although, still not sold on the use of white rather than tan for the house walls.

@mpoh98: Thanks, this was all based off the figs Elderon sent me in the Christmas fig exchange (he sent Manek Asten and his wife) :)

@Knight Man: Thanks, the stone wall is 2x2 tiles, I generally do white because I have more headlight bricks/brick modified in it :)

Ah! Now I see it, looks like perfectly square blocks from the front(Not really even 2x2 blocks), looks great still! :D Ah, makes sense.

Thanks, and I assume you're referring to my best tudor house yet and not my best build yet :)

Good to see you could put them to such good use! I love the rocking chair inside! I think I'll borrow that design someday :wink:

Seems like such a finely crafted and tall stone wall like that would be more expensive than just rebuilding the house! ;)

I love the house and the interior is great, as always. :D

Awesome job, mate! :D The house is extremely well built. I like the idea for the wall, too.

@Justin M: Thanks :)
