Lets See Some Bases! Give Us a Tour!

[the_j485]

I tend to build always in a similar style, a bit like Yusonoha, although I try to tweak it and perfect bits every time, so that it works well for me.

 

[fergcraft]

I build random shapes

 

[the_j485]

I only just worked out today how to make hexagons for bee stuff.

 

[Netherus]

I always build either way to small and start building stuff outside and demolishing walls without fixing them or build something way to big
Currently I have a ginormous spacestation build in a mystcraft void age its not even nearly done but should have the frame ready by the end of the week, I just wouldn't even know where I should start adding machines xD at least I don't have to light it (mushroomisland ftw)

Holland says hi!

 

[the_j485]

I just don't think ahead when I build, I build something, the realise something is wrong, and I can't be arsed to change it. I have little devotion in MC

Wow, stealing for inspiration and stuff. I'm guessing though that it isn't a very functional base, more made for looks?

I don't think most of it is built, more a WIP with requests for assistance

Yeah, I was referring to the images in the completed section of his post. Of course, the pictures he has used for reference and inspiration are inspirational to me as well

This was build only for showcase and done in 10-15mins. In final build all stuff will be esthetically pleasing and very functional Also much much better.

This is on our multiplayer server, my first ever base build - been playing for a couple of weeks.
White marble version of German Huf house.

But now I have looked through this thread I need to go much bigger and more intricate. Won't use marble again, hiding pipes and cabling with panels instead of facades blows.

Some of the things on this thread are mindblowing - I love this community

Finally ready to show off a little myself, and ask for a bit of advice...First off:

My house:

Spoiler

BioMass/Fuel Production "Hat" building as I call it, and my floating Multifarms:

Spoiler

My smaller Rubber Plantation building, and my Lava "guardian":

Spoiler

My AE Living room:

Mystcraft room:

AE Processing room, deep beneath the ocean:

Still working on it for the most part, but proud of what I have so far.

Now my question:
See thsoe blue lights littered around the ground in my pics? I love/hate them. I love the techy look, yet I hate how cluttered they are. I'm trying to light up my yard to cease the spawning of evil little beings, yet it looks to...ugh.

Any ideas? I've used Wrath lamps in the past, yet they've been bugging out on me and causing some crashes. Nitor from Thaumcraft slaughters my poor FPS with tons around. I wouldn't mind making 'streetlamps' or such, as long as they look decent..

There are torches that prevent mobs from spawning in a 64x64 area forgot how they are called but they look like big torches and iirc they come from extra utilities

Holland says hi!

Magnum Torches.

I love to bury them and use moody lighting for certain things, personally.

New base that I'm abandoning as I'm moving to the unleashed pack, castle isn't quite finished needs the central tower (visible behind the bridge between the 2 front towers), going to do a final episode of my ftb beta let's play to show it off when I'm done.

Pic 2 is from my original base in a plains biome, I kept seeing the extreme hills in the distance thinking "that needs a castle on it"

edit: I made a short video as mentioned further up if anyone wants to see a little more:

Yay for builders! Woot!
