How long have you been a member of this project?: looking around the server for about an hour

How old are you?: 17 turning 18

Where are you from?: Central Coast, NSW, Australia

Are you in our Discord?: not yet but will be shortly

Why do you want to help with this project?: Havn’t played miney in about half a year due to being uninspired and having a broken laptop that fried to death :’-( . Saw a video of ardacraft on youtube thought it was the coolest minecraft-related thing i’ve ever seen. Also I enjoy in great extent the LOTR films. Also singleplayer can become very uninspiring as creating a city / world takes alot of time and effort and progression by one man is extremely slow. So i rekon building on a server with numerous builders will be much more fun :smiley:

Which Tolkien-related works have you read, seen or listened to?: I have seen the LOTR films numerous times, aswell as the hobbit films. I have begun reading the hobbit, and i had not previously known other J R R Tolkien books existed, but im keen to get onto reading them :slight_smile:

Are there any styles that you excel at? Any styles which you have difficulty with?: I am confident in my own personal “Nordic style” which most of my builds in my submission are, because of this I feel I excel at more dwarven / human styled buildings rather than elven. Also i really enjoy building more natural / small interesting things such as tree’s, camps, ruins, caves, forests, paths, etc.

Other relevant skills: My other hobby apart from playing games is music in which I feel im pretty good at in numerous genre’s. (but that’s subjective i guess)

I just want to say i have always used default minecraft textures when building, so my buildings may be very undetailed / bland. This is also why i havnt included any interiors yet, as up to this moment they have been limited to stairs for seats and pot plants for cups :stuck_out_tongue: . I do feel comfortable with interiors though and I am starting to practice on a single player world using the numerous detail blocks the Ardacraft pack has to offer. Also my style is very nordic, (which i know doesnt really have a place in middle earth), but a nordic style, i believe, is basically a mix of dwarvern and human so I rekon I can change some things to make it fit.

Your builds look good but You need to try at least 1 of our current styles. Good luck!!

Hey everyone heres a link to some more screenshots of a dwarvern house interior and a man tower and building complex (probably too cramped for dale, could be appropriate in a smaller village)

The human pictures looked good, de dwarven images were a bit dark but doesnt matter. What I have seen from them is that they are fine.
