Still unbroken? :o

STILL UNBROKEN!!!!

I've done some work on my house and it's starting to get to a point where I can think of it as close to finished.

I still need to make a large storage area, but there's plenty of space for that, though I do have to think about how to make it accessible.

The only real downside is that you have to collect everything. There's no creative mode like Minecraft, and some of the items are damned rare. I've had to fight dozens of Martian Invasions to get the bricks I need for my current build.

Don't even get me started on Rainbow Bricks.

That smokestack is a nice touch.

...and I see now that the very next comment also said that, but I'm keeping my praise in, damnit!

Also liking the skull in another pic you posted.

OMG, that outhouse! :-D

Wow, it's amazing how much a different colored light changes the marble. I almost thought you painted it!

================

Alright, now that 1.3 is out and I've played around in it a bit, I've got a new world set up. Once I saw that Martian Conduit Plating, I was inspired to make something loosely based on an old SNES classic. The first pic is what I started carving out. The second is a change to the top part, since I kept running over the pressure plate and triggering it (though I really don't like the sunken elevator look to it; I'd prefer it to be flush with the floor like the game that inspired it, but putting a lever to trigger it instead looks like crap). The final pic is an alternate room lay out, and what I'll probably go with.

The lights will eventually be connected to the pressure plates that operate the doors, so the rooms will go dark as you leave them, then the next room will light up when you enter.

This entire structure is just going to be storage chests, crafting stations, and "elevators" (AKA, teleporters) to other areas, like "Norfair" (Hell), "Brinstar" (the jungle), and "Maridia" (an ocean). I'll also link to the Dungeon, but I don't really have a SM name for it. It's similar to Tourian in the role it plays, but it's not really a technologically advanced area, either. I guess I could call it that anyway, and have one going to the corruption and call that Crateria. No Wrecked Ship anywhere in sight, though, hehe.

I'm also not entirely happy with the door tube material. I'm using cogs with actuators, and gemspark blocks that are permanently actuated to (barely) light it up (the gemspark wall looked terrible). Tin plating is probably the closest I've seen to a good material, but I dunno. I haven't tried making one with it yet. I also haven't really done anything with paint, either, so if someone has a suggestion for a block/paint combo that would work better for that, I'm open to it (and the gemspark blocks can be removed as well).

I need a life.
I spent two hours trying to settle on the scheme for the water colors. :P

I don't know why, but your creation reminds of a certain film. Also, how did you get a green mannequin? Or god forbid is that you in the wedding dress?

That 'mannaquin' is me! XD I made my character The Hulk when I started and during the last Blood Moon was attacked by a special zombie called The Bride. When she died I got the dress.

Aww it would've been awesome if you could somehow paint mannequins. Yeah I've got like 3 sets each of the wedding dress and the groom's suit. I was thinking of making some sort of haunted house with a bunch of mannequins everywhere dressed as brides and grooms :P

I haven't hit the groom yet but you may have noticed I FINALLY got a Medusa Head! Shit, I spent all day just running around killing them before I finally got it. :P

Grats! I was extremely lucky: I got mine before my 5th medusa kill. I love using it to smoke bats

I love how you gave the goblin a piano. XD

That was an accident, I just stuck it in there because I didn't know where else to put it.

It sure is! and thank you, I'm really proud of my skull :)

That sentence is asolutely screaming for a "that's what she said" joke. It's too bad I'm too classy to make such a crass joke.

Some more progress on my house: http://imgur.com/ivGcjQW

The glowy eyesore of retinal doom is meant for the Party Girl when she respawns. I think she'll be happy down there.

The room next to that abomination is meant for targeting dummies for testing purposes. It's still in the very early stage, so nothing fancy is happening there yet. The gemspark blocks I used as floor aren't measuring anything, they were merely what was left after doing something else.

It's pretty quiet in here
