The Blacksmith

Here's my latest work, The Blacksmith:



Near the center of the village sits the home of the village blacksmith. Working out of a small shop connected to his house, the blacksmith provides trustworthy work to the local farmers, soldiers, and craftsmen who need a horse shoed, a plough sharpened, or a tool repaired. The sound of his hammer striking metal can be heard throughout the countryside, and the cozy outdoor shop often serves as the site of friendly socialization and sharing of news for the village residents.








Another build incorporating the technic-pin roof technique I've been playing with. I love the way it looks and the versatility of it's shape, but it can really be a pain to work with.


Also, building houses is kinda hard...getting the roof shape and building proportions right can be complicated. Something I need to practice more.


Thanks for looking!

Soli Deo Gloria!

Fantastic work, digger! I really like the layout of the house and the dark red/bley colorscheme works wonderfully!

Very cool. How sturdy is that technic pin roof? It gives a nice uneven shape.

It's nicely attached to the building, and the technic pin construction itself is really sturdy.
