Stained Glass is Amazing

[Cy9miner]

Stained Glass is beautiful thing that Vintage Story does really well, however unlike other sandbox's the ability of chiseling allows some incredible possibilities. Been experimenting with the colored glass in my Creative Test World in the mixing of colors through layering glass planal. The maximum of layered sheets on a block is 8 Layer or 4 Pairs of color sheets. The window is using 2 pairing of colors sheets or 4 Layers using Blue Glass, Yellow Glass, Green Glass and little traces of Brown and Red Glass to produce a range of deeper and vibrant colors. The Colors you can make is Amazing even for simple looking window. 

I got carried away when building a wall to go with it.

I love stained glass, and made this large window for a mansion I built on a survival server two years ago. Yes, it took a long time, but I had fun making it

Nice! I love the idea of layering the glass for different colors. I've done something simular to add haze but somehow didn't think about getting more colors.

That Knight Mural is great dude really I`m glad you had fun making that.

You can hold my beer in terms of stained glass size, but I love the knight you've chiseled nonetheless. It got real stained glass vibe to it, mine are more like giant painted panels, except for some parts. Blame the amount of details I'm aiming for, I guess (that's an old picture, I'm lazy updating it too frequently lol. Promise, when I finish with glass, I'll drop another screenshot bomb on forums)

I have finished it, thus an update on photo.

@7embre Thank you for your kind words!

I stand humbled and in awe of your patience and ability to create absolutely gorgeous masterpieces, one after another. I can't wait to see the finished build!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but by any chance did you take inspiration from Lupine Ridge in this build?

I saw your screenshot and went "Wait a minute I've been there before" before realizing why it looked familiar to me

@Never Jhonsen

You are very correct in that assumption, this build was highly inspired by Kurazarrh's Lupine Ridge, just with my own tweaks and additions.

It's also all built in survival, with no chisel mods to help with any of all the chiseling I did (and there's a LOT).

I think you did a wonderful job at recreating it Lupine Ridge is one of my favorite builds anyone's done in this game, so seeing it again was such a nice sight  Also, your stained glass on that front fits very well with it

Absolutely terrifyingly impressive. Is that the Vintage Story logo with some gears around it? And with vanilla glass colors??

Yep, pretty much. Vanilla glass and ice. VS logo with gears, some water, islands, reeds and wisterias at the top.

Thanks! First of all, this is creative build, so I can use world edit to copy empty frames with back walls to lean glass onto, and have the ability to not bother with resources. All these blocks are 12 material types multichiseled blocks, lol. Regarding time it took, a few hours/window. And like 6-10 hours sketching all of them.

Still very impressive work @7embre

I aspire to be on that level, but man do I still have a long ways to go before my builds look anything close to yours.
