Little village with a Norman inspired Castle.

I've played Vintage Story for a good few hundred hours by now. But I've only just decided to really dig in and try to build a world I can enjoy. This is my first proper go with the chisel, of which I've burned through many by this point.

Still have a long ways to go, though. I want to add some more buildings to really make it feel like a little town and I still have two floors of the castle to decorate. What do people think?

More self-control than I have to leave those choice trees and seek out forests outside your view distance. ;) 

As I've said to others, I have no artistic side. My only attempt at chiseling was hideous, and I've never repeated it, but I do like to see what others can do. (It was so hideous that I deconstructed the whole thing, threw it into a cave where it would despawn, then did a Schneier-approved wipe of the file, followed by an ATA Secure Erase. No one else will ever be burdened by that offense against aesthetics. It dies with me.)

The spot I chose to build is close to about 4000 blocks away from spawn. For some reason, I chose Walnut as the primary wood type for my work. Which in this region was really, really scarce. That. And I don't really have a reason to chop the Redwoods down yet. I still have charcoal left over from my first batch, which I fired like, 40 hours of game time ago.

The key I find for chiselling and building in general is to use reference images. The chairs in the great hall for example, were based on these.

Well now I'm curious how bad it actually was.

Loving that dining hall though. I really ought to get back to building in my world, but I get distracted way too easily. 🤣
