How long have you been on Herocraft?: Not sure.. I was on Sanctum. Over a year, maybe two, not sure sorry.
Why do you think you would make a good architect?: I seem to like building more than anything else really. I'm good at it/experienced/know what I'm doing, a bit OCD when it comes to "doing it right/being impeccable" but I don't let it stop me. I've got an eye for design.
Post screen shots of your creation here! I don't take many screens of my work so I don't have much to show unfortunately. I can make screens of Nevermore. I think I also have a few pics of my work on Shin Kyoto and Nagori stashed away.
Additional info you would like to tell us?: It was suggested I apply so hear I am, requesting you consider allowing me to build some cool stuff and assist others in doing so as well.

Really want to see some work I know you're an old schooler!

Got it.
I dug up some old Zeal and Sanctum ones I had.
I'll log on today and take a few of part of Nevermore I put a lot of work into and post those after.
Unfortunately this doesn't show my best work but it's all I got. In the future I'll be taking more screens of work.

This was my first house on Sanctum in Nagori. I later built a much better one but haven't found any screens of it.

The Living room/Fireplace inside:

Here's a nice view of my manor in Shin Kyoto on Zeal:

Below my house there ^ is the Shin Kyoto park which was one of the projects I did there, here's a nice view of it:

Here's the Garden Entrance to my SK manor:

Posting more image in the next post (idk how many I can have in each post)..

 

[Drastikos]

Another view of SK Park from a bridge in SK Park:

Here's the kitchen in the SK Manor (before some upgrades):

Here's the Conference room, two floors above the kitchen (before some upgrades):

Here's another nice vista of SK Park:

Next I'll get those Nevermore images up.

 

[Drastikos]

So here's a pic of the Nevermore farm which I did a ton of work on.
I created those "hanging gardens" with all the wheat, pumpkins and melons above.

MOAR wheat!! Another view from the "hanging garden" of wheat:

This one's kinda random. It's a sculpture I did outside my place at Nevermore.
It's an art installation, good place for PVP/defense, and a monument to my pet sheep.

This is from the top floor of my tower, my chest room/private chambers.
I have a waterfall that collects into a pool that you walk up through from the stairs (you'd have to see it, hard to explain) instead of a latter.

This here is a WIP.
It's a tunnel I've been working on/expanding between Nevermore and Newerth.
Note, I have gotten help on it from Symbolite (it's our pet project) and xexo, and a few others have lent a hand.

Making another post for more screens...

 

[Drastikos]

Here's a view of Nevermore showcasing some design xexo and I worked on.
I put some countless hours that thing.

Some more wall action. Again, I'm not the only one who worked on this.

Sorry I don't have more screens of my better work.
Hope this gives you some form of an opinion that I don't suck at building.

 

[Drastikos]

Update - moar stuff!


Here's my design (WIP) for the towers for xexorian and I.

Here's another side project I'm working on.

Here's a shot from one of the floors inside the tower section ^.

 

[Drastikos]

Updating with more pics of my work
Please Note: I'll also be making another update tonight of my current home in Newerth.

Here's a few more pics of my home last map called the "Tower of WINNING"

Here's a Prototype of the inside of Newerth TownHall I did for Symbolite

Here's an more updated pic of that side project (all mined/not creative)

Here's an older one, but it's a nice night shot (I like the glowy bits )

This is inside the lobby of the tower section lol

 

[Drastikos]

These next two illustrate the functionality of one of the redstone gates I made for the place

This one is of my current hut in Newerth where my genetic engineering of melons got outta hand...

Next Post later tonight of my current home (tower) in Newerth [WIP]

 

[bluejack404]

The new tower's looking pretty good! He's making great use of the incredible amount of sand that was left over from my castle building.

 

[Drastikos]

@Kainzo, I acknowledge I didn't get these pics up when I said I would..
I'm going to keep updating this thread with pics of this project as time goes on (even if I'm ever accepted as an Architect), chronologising the story of it all.
I'm also going to share the background "Story" of it all too at some point (still writing it).

So, without further ado, here's the beginings of the "Tower of Won"!


From the main floor (future shopping center area) where I have my temp workshop set up to smelt mats

View from the other side of the room

Working my way up

View of the dojo on top of NW's apt. through the 1st giant window

Still more to be done..

Lets keep going up (provides some context of scale)

... more

... More pics next post [can't remember pic/post limit]

 

[Drastikos]

Quite a drop!

Outside view

Working into the late hours of the night

I like this pic, it makes me feel dizzy lol

More updates to come...

 

[Drastikos]

More..

 

[Drastikos]

Update:
New roof - angled glass. Space for a UFO (flying saucer) to park above it soon.
Building a mooring system for support next - replacing the structures in the park below the ship/building.

Zooom - enhance that! "okay"..

<3

 

[Drastikos]

A bit of an update of stuff...

Here's a drill site I made for the HeroTEK we're working on:

Here's a few pics of the Officer Quarters I made on the Mothership (b4 we mothballed it):

In between working on stuff we also know how to unwind a bit, e.g.: Creeper Rail Gun!

I'm not just good with MC blocks either, seems I'm not to bad at Tetris too lol:

Thought I'd bump this again, why; cause I really wanna build awesome stuff on/for the server! lol
I see what some of the architect's are building and whenever I do, I'm like that's cool and awww I wish I could do that with ya..

Anyways nuff sad stories here a pic of the tower that never did get finished - taking it down.
It was gonna have some garden platforms with trees, plants, vines and a few waterfalls.
Those glass platforms you can see there were going to be chestsshops each level catering to different sets of stuff (iron gear, diamond gear, mats, nether mats, food, etc..)

And here's a pic of some of the salvage operation, taken out the red-stone lamps.

Not sure what I'll build next on the new plot when its ready.
Maybe just a graveyard and I'll live in a tomb..

Giving this another bump.
It's been about a month and I'm about to start working on my new home in Newerth now. Not sure what I'm going to do yet.
Thinking have the base of the structure with four large supports, lots of open space, working with the other structures around the plot to fit it in really well. That part will be 4 or 5 stories high.
A top of that section would be a new tower. This time with more texture than the last one, balconies, each floor would be more visually clear in comparison.
The idea is inspired by my Shin Kyoto tower. It won't be a redux or anything, but it'll will definitely take inspiration from it - just as if I went to redo it there'd still be many improvements.

Above that, not sure yet; not worried bout that part yet either. I want to get the first to section complete before I would add anymore.

Anyways those are my thought on, hope it makes some semblance of sense. lol
