My NEW! Mage Tower, forget my old one!

Origin_Elloyn · 07-27-2009, 08:38 PM

I felt my last Mage Tower wasn't nearly good enough and used up way too many items, here's my next version, using less space, but makes it look bigger. Hope you enjoy it.

Using the portal up to my study

My private quarters

My deralict trader's row

Xalmat · 07-27-2009, 08:45 PM

Holy moly!

Lillaanya · 07-27-2009, 09:20 PM

Very impressive!

Kethri · 07-28-2009, 01:43 AM

I really love this! You do amazing things with stone blocks. I can't even tell where the original room ends and the crafted stuff begins. Awesome!

Zindicatt · 07-28-2009, 11:35 AM

Truly amazing work. You totally tranformed the place and created many credible cornors with the blocks. I am very impressed with your skill and talent! I think I will have to visit this one. Can you share the server/location?

You bet! T1 Guildhall in NQ on the Crushbone server, guildname "Sorcerer Administration"

Beckah · 07-28-2009, 04:03 PM

I don't think I can say anything other than, "WOW!" That looks so amazing!

Crymsyn · 07-28-2009, 04:30 PM

That is simply stunning!! I had zero clue what guildhall I was in, and it really does scream mage's tower. Superb work!!!!!

Minoko · 07-28-2009, 05:49 PM

This deserves first place for most coolest mage tower/library thing EVER.

Taylinn · 07-28-2009, 06:17 PM

That is impressive! Exactly how many blocks and cellus bookcases did you use?

Kamimura · 07-28-2009, 08:20 PM

I'm on CB as well, so I had to check this out. Went on one of my taller characters, so it was a bit cramped in some places, but other than that it was very amazing! Think my favorite spot was the little bench that looks out over the main area in the private quarters (think it was, anyway). Definietly one of the coolest things I've seen done. SMILEY

Bardkin · 07-28-2009, 09:20 PM

very nice SMILEY

115 cellus bookcases and roughly 550 crude stone blocks!

Goldinrae · 07-29-2009, 01:22 PM

Absolutely stunning!

MakoReactor · 07-30-2009, 12:25 AM

Beyond awesome, easily one of the best jobs I've seen.

Seitan · 07-30-2009, 03:19 AM

The wooden walls are the Wantia Armoires, just spun around. I can only handle max graphics for a short while then I have to restore my settings and reboot hehe : )

Nefariaa · 07-30-2009, 06:20 AM

I liked your first one, and I really like this one too. The detailed block ceiling work is probably my favorite feature from both.

Vuurvink · 07-30-2009, 04:17 PM

Love your work! Am curious, what is that bookcase that is showing on the 3rd pic from the bottom? Never seen it before (tho I been away from the game for a while so maybe it'ss new??). I like it.

That is indeed a newer one. I believe it is called Iksar bookcase. Haven't done the quest myself but I believe it is from one of the new Rime quests.

Juni · 08-02-2009, 02:55 AM

I swear i am goin to vist your tower. one of these before you tear it down again. I missed the last 2 tho i wish i hadn't. Great job as always. This one is gonna be hard to beat.

(Off-Topic from the OP but..) Thanks! I ran into the same book case in a friends guildhall and yep it is indeed called an Iksar Bookcase. Just started doing the rime series so am hoping I 'll run into it sooner rather then later! I did get this very cool 'stack of rolled up rugs' for one of them quest yesterday, omgosh I love it!

Casta · 08-03-2009, 11:48 AM

WOW! OMG WOW! You must have bought every Cellus family bookcase on your server!!! Simply incredible! Awesome job!

Ristan · 08-03-2009, 01:21 PM

Nice job origin, now I know why there are no stone blocks left on the broker on the entire crushbone server SMILEY

I'll have to come by and visit again
