New Terra Nova - Day 9 - 18

Greetings!!!  So it has been a busy time in Ark for me.  I've not done as much building as normal as I'm playing the game more.  Added another tribe member and hopefully my other half will be joining me as soon as we get her new PC delivered.  It is possible however remote that her new PC might have enough juice for me to do a few vids.  I won't hold my breath as it may need a better GFX card but it could actually happen...  I'm looking into capture cards so I could do vids across the two so who knows what might come of it!

So I have FINALLY finished the outer wall!!!  It had been put off a few times while I sorted other things.  The thing about having tribe mates that I'm not used to is the priorities have changed what I'm building.  I can see what is more important so I finish that first.  So here is the front entrance with the completed wall.

Front gate from the inside.

Looking along the compound  towards the second gate and taming pen.

I was suprised as to the attention this gate got.  This is infact a Behemoth gate.  Now I have a love hate relationship with these things.  I love that you can fit things through them easily but they are hugely ugly monstrocities and not the easiest thing to blend into a build.  I skinned mine and made the entrance a tad thinner in the process.  There is a ladder access to the top of the gate as well as each tower along the wall.  This all looks amazing at night!

Quick shot of the tower.  The top deck has been extended slightly and I can't recall if I have already posted the increase of the base for the ring barn.  This is for egg layers so the S+ collector can collect till its heart is content.  If it had a heart.  But it doesn't so it is gonna have to keep on collecting :)  The tower got its reskin so it now uses less parts than it was going to have and I've added all the glass doors to fill in the 'windows'.

To the right on this pic you will see I have added a room to the back of the tower which houses our indust forge and a landing pad for metal unloading.  I added a scroll as part of the foundation because...  why not?

Here is a top shot of the landing pad and back of the base.  I used alternating glass and stone railing on the glass and stone ceilings and quite like the resulting effect.

And to top it all off here is a night shot :)  Builds always look that much better at nite!  I think thats rain obscuring the view lol
