The Burning Rib - Part Two released!

[Sangennaru]

Hi everyone! two days ago i started an interesting new project, and now it's time to show some WIPs. Basically, i am now trying a different approach in medieval building, using a more "chaotic" way than the standard building approaches.

The basement will be in rocks. carved from a plaster shape.


Then, the wooden structures will be added, either in the outsides and the insides.



That's what i've done so far. tomorrow i'll complete the other half of the building, and then i'll have the detailing part, which is quite long... Will keep this thread updated, and i will eventually publish a detailed step-to-step tutorial on my website!




cheers,
Jack

Looking good so far! You have a nice organic feel to the model. Looking forward to seeing more.

[FramFramson]

Oh this is going to be good again. I love how natural these buildings look.

Is this 20mm scale? 15mm?

[syrinx0]

Impressive job so far just sculpting the base!

[Constable Bertrand]

That's a fun way to build Jack. I'm eager to see how it grows.

[Sangennaru]

Thanks people! the building is a 28-32mm one, and it's a veeeery small one. guess what it is?
I'll proceed with the secodn part right now!

An outhouse?

An outhouse?

With a clever design. Like semi-outdoor laboratories where potentially explosive reactions are performed: a solid stone structure at the bottom with the upper part made of timber, so the blast is directed up and away.

Not just an outhouse. A safety outhouse

I say it's not a building at all, but rather an addition to a building. The wooden beams poking out from the underneath suggest one of those window wotsits that lean out over the street from an upper storey on a medieval building.

Your skills are impeccable as usual

what are those wooden beams that are jutting out at the base of the masonry?
where did You get that idea from?

[Sangennaru]

Heh, actually you are right, those wooden beams are not really realistic. they were meant to sustain a... fire, for the... backstage where customers are not allowed.

Ok, too many clues. :S

[former user]

look, Your style is very attractive and skilled, so I long ago dumped realism 

never mind, as long as there is a logical reason for them, it should be fine.
If they are not replaced regularly, they will rot away, because that is actually the reason for masonry at the base of wooden framed buildings, to prevent the wooden beams from rotting away...

Ok, too many clues. :S

Confused and intrigued... I is it booth for a sage?  

[former user]

is this actually a riddle?

[Sangennaru]

is this actually a riddle?

Humm... i don't think so

I think i should upload more pictures...
