a rather simple Lighthouse.... which i didn't expect would be this low in parts, hell, it's also my first time making something that resembles an island... and i must say, i like. maybe as much as Emeria.... hm....

with or without credit as long as you don't claim that you made it yourself(i will smack your nose if you do)
Want more structures?
Ranging from the Japanese Toriis up to a Grain Silo or even a Clock Tower.. any building you can think of will(probably, hopefully, perhaps, etc etc) be here!

@Monarchii Nice, can't have enough targets...
@llDeadboyll whatever I feel like I want mostly, its a plane rn
@Monarchii hm, OK. What's next on the list then?
@AshdenpawTG22 oYES
@Monarchii Ohno-
@AshdenpawTG22 i wasn't going to give it flying capability, but now you gave me a reason to :)
@Monarchii I’m scared. I’m just imagining flying in something, then getting sucked towards a giant vacuum to my ultimate demise, trying to eject, but then even the seat is drawn in.
spooky
@AshdenpawTG22 yeah, interdimensional interplanetary vacuum sounds amazing
@Monarchii wait really?
@llDeadboyll I mean, I can, it's just way down on the list rn
@Monarchii could you make also a Target Carrier with A-ll? That would be really awesome.
@WritersCrusadersAirCo I could help of ya want
That's a nice tower :)
@WritersCrusadersAirCo it's like art tbh, you don't need to like everything about it, you just need to like one thing about it, even if its simple.
and per technically, I do have experience behind me(see me.), don't punish yourself.
@AshdenpawTG22 sure, why not.
You should make a vacuum with magnets
@WritersCrusadersAirCo who said ya can't? my tricks are simple to learn too... my train-of-thought for my structures are basically "Low as low as it gets without sacrificing appearance.", how do you interpret this using this build as an example? well, there's a lot to say... starting from the bottom of the Lighthouse... i didn't model the stairs 1:1, people know it's there, and theres the basic shape of it, thats enough. windows? those are labels, up close yes, people would see that it doesn't exactly plaster to the lighthouse, but from afar? no one is the wiser. then we start getting to the... support struts, that is something that you will see, and you will notice, i didn't skip that one and spent a few parts to make it seem "supported" instead of opting for one giant block. the railings.. no one is the wiser too, it isn't exactly round, and that's okay, because the aim is to "get by as close as possible", not 1:1. then we come to the top, glass for the light room, and for the most top where there is a little decoration... i used a resized magnet and a gyroscope, bam.
tl;dr, be witty and use as much tricks, resize parts, use labels(very much a great part saving trick, railings, windows, etc.), detail with the vague shape, not exact.
there is a difference between seeing something up close and 100m away, people are none the wiser most of the time.
also, tricks for islands, use fuselage cones for the grasslands(and hills, useful.), create vague shapes by fuselage cutting them apart, imperfections are perfect, go as mad as you like with it.
@WritersCrusadersAirCo hey, what's up with that mentality.. we can have more lighthouses in the site y'know, the more the merrier! come on, there's a reason i put Roman numerals too on each type of my structures, they ain't the only one to come!
@HanakoSan btw can you tag me on that AA again? it got buried in my notif...
bruh
OH LOOK ANOTHER BOMBING TARGETING!
ISLAND??? NO WYA!1!1!1!1!
