I have an interest in steampunk / dieselpunk / medieval / ancient architecture and history and much of what I make will fall into one or more of those categories. I build when I have time in between my university robotics courses.
My main motivation for posting is to shamelessly draw in new members to our server -> Somniactus.apexmc.co <- because the more, the merrier. Basically everything I post will be straight from that server, so get on if you wanna check it out!
FrabjousPolygon and I collaborate on a bunch of stuff for the server, so check out his page too. But pretty much all the stuff I post is just me.
Check out Somniactus! It's a roleplay survival towny server with 3 nations to join with complex international trade and pvp with a complex class tree with unique abilities based on your nation and class. The world is filled with cool sites and regions filled with treasure in the custom map to explore. The nations of the world are all in a race to gain superiority over the others and to conquer the world to gather its riches for themselves.
At some point in the future, when the known world is fully explored, we will release the exploration update which will greatly increase the world size and add new places to seek out and claim as your own.
Well, that's day 20 of 40 days of sketching. Quite odd, on one hand it's not a lot of days but in another way while looking through them. A lot has happend. in terms of progress.
Either way, I am looking forward for the next 20 days to sketch on location. Quite different compared to sketching from google streetview. The only downside? possible bad weather & roughly 20~24 hours of traveling needed from closing the front door behind me, all the way to my first place to stay. But that's something for tomorrow morning.
day 7 left | right day 17
ps. the houses are from the country I am going to for my vacation.
I am not sure if observing is the right word. I think it's more of figuring out how to sketch the details. Details such as the roofing and the (bloody annoying but satisfying when you finally get some to work after few days) greenery. At the same time, yes I have been observing more details. Observing to figure out how to draw these things...
By the way, I decided to already prepare a draft of the first half of my blog detailing the proces. I hope you don't mind me taking lots of inspiration in the way you made your blogs.
This makes me super excited to read more about what you've learned, and I love the difference levels of detail from day 7 to 17. I may not be correct, but it looks from these two drawings that you've started observering more, like with all the smaller aspects of the buildings :)
