these are some really wonderful builds, I enjoy the pontoon a lot and will be porting that into my world, maybe even looking at it thoroughly to produce similar launches or other small craft of its styling.
having trouble reproducing your barrels though.
It always makes me glad to know that people are enjoying one (or more) of my builds ^.^ I'd love to see your additions to the pontoon, should you decide to add similarly styled builds!
Having finally taken the time to look through EVERY ONE of your many amazing builds, the question came to mind: how do you plan for your builds?
I have always had a difficult time following a plan and was wondering if you had any advice.
Thanks in advance!
Haha, I'm happy you enjoyed the builds! ^.^
I'm afraid I won't be able to offer too much in the way of help, but I'll certainly try. I usually start with a rough idea of what I'd like. Using that rough idea, I grab a ton of materials (always more material types than I end up needing). If I think I can remotely use a material for the build I'm envisioning, I'll put it in my inventory. Next, if I need inspiration or reference, I search google for images. Not of builds, per se, I usually search real life photos of buildings, terrains, or plants.
Some players draw out their build plans, and plan out every detail. When it works for people, great, but I cannot do that myself. I've found that even when I plan too much in advance, every time I start building, I get new ideas on the fly. Inevitably, the entire build drifts away from my original vision, and becomes something new, so I've found it best (for me) to just skip any major planning processes, and just jump into building.
So yeah, I just grab way more materials than I need (usually I fill inventory, piggy bank, and safe), and I just build off a general idea in my head. Sorry that doesn't really help you much in terms of advice, though D:
Happy building ^.^
