World #2 Gallery

 
So this is where it begins with the newly remodelled front doors, and I though I wasn't sure about the remodelling it's really grown on me. One trouble was, just inside the old doorway was an open stairway to the original underground mines, but being so close to the front door I was unable to put a door in there like I originally wanted. With these new doors however the open wall to the stairs now looked silly where it was so I had to move the stairs further to the left, relocate two sets of stairs and fill the old hole in the wall up! The result is much better, has an intial entrance door and even the new passage-way looks much better.

Front Room:
(Overhanging glass since fixed and moved up a block.) That door is the main passage way to the rear of the mountain - more on that later.

The door leads down to the original mines in the mountain, the first ones I found:



Since the picture of the front entrance, the mast of dirt out front (Beacon) has been removed in favour of a tree. The path also goes way further along as you can see, and has for a while, and goes around the mountain:


Leading to the new dock:


Leads round to the back area:
That dug out area near the top of the mountain, just above the tree, has since been turned into a room and with the addition of a portal on the top of the building now looks very different.

Along the boardwalk and along a gravel path with fencing you get to the glass slipway across to the new cobble stairs up, linking up to the wooden foot-bridge.


Looking back:

This path joins the one around the side of the mountain we first saw.

Back of the mountain:

Alot more cleaned up compared to how it looked in post #1 of this blog.

The fort area, before and after I changed it from it's original mix of cobble, stone and dirt, (How I originally found it) to fully cobbled:

Before:


After:

Cobbled it all out, and made the other walls the same fort-like type, and really cleaned up the area. I hope that tree grows to give it that fully finished look. But much better I think.

Entrance inside fort:



Remember that earlier shot of this early in a previous post, probably post #1, this area has been cleaned up a lot also., New cobble steps going up, gravel path, big gaping hole (Where the land dips) now filled in. Those stairs lead to a read viewing area.



But back to just outside of the fort and those wooden stairs to the rear entrance:

 




The far door was an original spot for mining but now houses a connecting staircase leading up to the rear viewing room pictured before the two small insets. The corridor continues round from that door to the front room with the lava fall, the main corridor that was mentioned. The immediate door is the first viewing room:


It's kinda retro, but the cool thing is the window hole, which doesn't need glass because you can see through the waterfall:


This is just that stairway behind the far end door that leads up to the rear viewing room:

Not too interesting, not meant to be.

When you get up the stairs you get two split paths:

(This path also has an extra door down it tucked into the left side of the wall here, leading to the new room I've just finished looking directly over the dock. The one I dug out at the top of the mountain mentioned before but wasn't sure in what style to develop it.)

Where I am stood, the stairs continue up to that rear viewing room with the skeleton head painting in it, the one down this path leads to the NEW bedroom. Remember that hole at the top of the lava fall out front? You'll have seen there was glass up there now, and that's where we find the bedroom where you can see the dock in the distance:

Mmm, chest of food.


I see the port! But the new room, although a shallow room (And therefore just a viewing area) will have a much better view of the dock.


Night Pics:

A fountain is near the front now as well.



Just before I go to publish this, I opened up Minecraft and took some updates pics, so these are up to the minute!:

Entrance:


Note: above the front doors the mountain is also no longer a mish-mash of 3 different material types.


The new viewing area from below, including new portal:
