Library of St. Ablasterio

Post by Brother Steven »

Dear Journal,
After a few weeks journey across the country, I have finally arrived at the Isle of Ivor which is home to the great library of St. Ablasterio. Here I hope to enlist the aid of the library monks to help me find find some documents which can potentially lead me to a great treasure I learned of as a youth. I will write more later, for I fear I am being followed...

I'm really happy the way this one came out! :D

Hope you guys like it! :)

Really cool, Steven. I especially love the lighting effect, the dark green curtain, the hint of the next room, and the guy peeking around the corner (suggestive of a larger story).

As Bruce has said - the lighting is perfect. Great atmosphere to the build too which feels odd saying :lol:

Lovely work! As has been said the lighting is excellent and I too like the curtain. Those lions also fit really well here.

Looks like a scene fro The Three Musketeers or something similar. Very nicely done (and photographed).

Absolutely amazing how you have packed so much detail on a relatively small surface. This build really gives a feeling about how the situation in that room is. And of course the very nice lighting!

You've really been nailing this "renaissance-esque architecture" (Would that be the right term?) style with some of your MOCs lately. This one really creates a defined atmosphere well.
