Rank Application

Sat Sep 21, 2013 1:15 am

The Rank I'm applying for is: Architect, or whatever my score warrants.
My Game Name is: line_of_eld
My Project is called: Farm
To get to my project: x: 2185 z:292 Directly east of spawn.
A brief description of my project: Dagstaff and I decided to build a massive bridge connecting two (possibly more) land masses. Dagstaff has taken on the role of constructing the actual bridge while I focus on farming the materials we will need to build/survive. This is not the completed build, however, this is the completed farm portion of the build. I have built more automatic farms than I care to remember and wanted to do something a little different for this build. My goal was to create a more "natural" farm that is functional as well as aesthetically pleasing.
Before I even began the build, I had to do some pretty major terraforming to ensure I had enough land to bring my vision to life. Most of the land that the wheat is on was originally ocean. The barn is for housing horses and mules with an attached breeding pen and also includes the storage for the farm "hidden" behind the hay bales on the top level. There are separate pens for cows, pigs, chickens, and sheep.The sheep pens contain sheep of every color. The crops are lit with automatic lighting. There is a trail that winds its way over the crops so visitors can take a tour of the farm. Along the tour route is a gazebo with a swimming hole. The giant eyeball provides the river that gives life to the crops and also houses our potion room that is only accessible via a "secret" entrance. The structure at the back is our double skele xp grinder that will be expanded in the future to account for other mobs.
Three mandatory screenshots:

Thanks for the promo Pri. Out of curiosity, what would it take to get this from Architect to City Planner?

You'd need to make it a lot bigger. 10x as large as it is now I'd say.

Grats!! I was sooo impressed wit this build when he showed me it in Survival, the eye ball is amazing, the layering of the landscape for the farms, all those lights r on day/night sensors, even has a hidden room which was very clever! I love it, I can't wait to see more from you in the future :)

I love the fields and the lighting, I haven't figured out how to make a condensed, reversed solar activated light yet like you have. Yours is small and the redstone is primarily hidden!
