In The Shadow Of The Cathedral
« on: April 24, 2012, 08:42:52 »
Hi folks! After the completion of the outer side of my Sys-x cathedral, I finally have the time to start with the surrounding Steck city Kodosak. A steck city which had been stored in boxes until my new den was completed (as of about two months ago  :yippee: :yippee: :yippee: :yippee: :yippee: )

The city consists of 3 levels on different mdf tables, the cathedral is on the highest level and oversees the rest of the city. There are stairs everywhere to go down to the lower levels. Furthermore, I more or less completed the port, the guild street, the town square in front of the cathedral, the inn, some houses to live in. There is no scenery yet, therefore I need to complete the city first but about 50% is still in boxes, so this is what needs to be done:

installation of most accessories and furniture, town's people, boats, knights, city walls, towers, houses, prison, royal castle, forest, river, scenery, etc... enough for keeping me busy and finally realize a dream  :woohoo: :woohoo:

The pharmacy is finished as well. You'll notice the green painted shop window part in the front. There was once a prototype to be seen on one of the old box diorama's. the green part more or less has the same story as the red framework house, I presume Geobra made one in green to offer some more variation in the color of Steck buildings. The part has never been released, tough.

It looks great, I love that harbour. (I don't envy clickies who have a peg leg or wear a skirt, if they tumble off those stairs they can fall a long way.  ;) )
