Barnacle Bay Creation Sharing Thread

@miklc: What you have built so far looks like it should be in Paris, Rome, or somewhere like that. Barnacle Bay doesn't really have the same "feel" to it. I would suggest if you want luxury, that you go "old" style (like a restored abbey) for the build and then make the interior luxurious. It should be a building that might have been on the island since the very early days, just before or shortly after the pirate era, when people were starting to take notice and settling there. Think of the back story of the island. Maybe an abbey was built then but fell into ruin, or maybe an old castle was abandoned. These could be renovated and turned into a library. Something like that. I'm sure you can imagine other scenarios, too.

Not that you can't do whatever you want in your own world ... you could turn the whole island into those mammoth luxury types of buildings, if you wish. But if you are building for other people to download, then you may want to appeal to a broader base of people, who are already in step with the current pirate theme.

As far as how to make buildings look attractive or have a certain appeal, it is probably best to look at pics of real buildings. You have to prime your imagination with possibilities, and the internet is full of them. Once you see all those pics, you'll have a head full of great ideas, and your own builds will be more to your liking.
