Oakmas College
First draft of a small rural wizard's collage. Need to work out of what's underneath, and other details but I think it's a start

It's been a little rough period - got hit hard by the flu, then fell hard while using my snowblower (it's not true, bumbles don't bounce). This morning it's a little cold out:
it's a good morning to start working again - beginning to block out classrooms and tower.
Oh dear, Glitch! I hope you feel better and have better luck soon.
The progress is looking good :)
Progress so far:
Hahaaha I like the room with lots of rugs!
Of course - you can't sit in a chair when using a crystal ball - you need rugs, incense, and candles. A perfect training room!🤣
Today's effort and some closeups
Couldn't find cellar doors - so a needs work effort
Messed up with original size of doors, so my work around was to add a sidewindow
Tomorrow more clean up, then starting on 2nd story of the tower/library
Second and Third Levels of the Library Tower:
Roof Top
Roof top battlemap - although I'm having problems getting the grid to render. One of the advanced students tried a summoning spell that was beyond his ability, on fortunately he succeeded
Ooooh I really like this one. Was this accomplished with CC3 assets, or other files you found?
Thanks! This is Marine/Darklands/Schley/CSUAC/DA I had fun with the summoning circle - added simple circles with glow effects going from blue, green, yellow, to red. The inner circle also used a lava fill.
Still having a hard time getting the grid to render clearly - if you zoom in, you can barely spot it. I've tried several different renders - even over driven glows.
That rooftop map is really good!
Thanks - a couple of days off, to catch up on work - then I think under the tower and classrooms will be a hippocaust.
Not sure how I was able to angle the building like that - must of been a hidden talent
Oakmas College, Liosach
Hypocaust
A faint smell of wood smoke permeates the area. Dirt and soot-stained flagstone floors, a low ceiling (5’6”) with stone pillars (that support the floors above). In one corner is a deep, spring fed, cistern. The opposite corner has stacks of wood. The main furnace stands in the center of the undertower, with three smaller furnaces for colder days.
The Hypocaust is maintained by Grom 3 (DNNA/Slave). Grom is short but broad shouldered and over the years has been listening to the classes above him learning some of the arcane sciences. Grom lives in the Hypocaust along with a calico mouser named Niger.
A recent event has caused a partial collapse of a wall opening access to the area under the main lecture hall – this area has taller ceilings with two graves at one end, and an alter at the other end.
Side note – the arcane circle on the tower roof is enhanced by all four elements:
Air – represented by the tower roof
Water – directly above the cistern in the Hypocaust
Earth – also above bedrock
Fire – represented by the incense burners
I think that all that is left to do now is to set up the hyperlinks and call it finished
