kick ass?

KICKASS
going steam punk with this? industrial revolution era? i like the look of the building and stuff. can't wait to see it realized
My idea is based around an ancient 'temple' of Iron Monks, who worshipped a religion of building and forging metal, a bit like the hammerites in thief. The religion died out, but their mighty temple of iron and stone was well constructed and outlasted them by a century (or two)
Enter: the age of technology!
Advances in the science of Electro-Summonetics have lead to a breakthrough.. The long forgotten dark magics of Summoning have been methodically examined and broken down into mathematical theorem, and one particular black-budget funded military operation has set itself towards converting theory into practice.
Searching for the perfect spot, the military scientists begin tracking ley-lines and mapping any points of interest. One particular sweep identifies the highest convergance of ley-lines yet recorded- and a reconnesance team is sent out immediately...
Who'd have thunk it, turns out those Monks built their tower smack dab ontop of the convergance. Co-incidence? I think not! And what's more, the series of pipes that intermingle with the temples foundations are found to resonate with the areas natural power and draw it up towards the temple courtyard. Some surmise this power may have been used to forge mystical enchanted artifacts..
The scientists sieze this oportunity, and begin at once to retrofit the tower with their equipment....
TO BE CONTINUED!
Looking forward to seeing more!
ok here's roughly how the iron monk temple looked before the 'renovations'
How high off the ground is it going to be, Just qurious if its going to be only sky in the background or is there going to be land.
Good start looking forward to seeing more.
I want out the rut and into the groove!
The building lacks 'style', not that it looks bad, just a bit bland? I personally think going uber gothic with it in terms of doorways and windows would change things drastically. I'm not saying lose the slightly steampunk stuff, just add it into the mix.
Could do with some interesting sources for possible evil style lights. I would suggest maybe some smelting furnaces somewhere amongst the chimneys, so you can cast some orangey red hues across your central deck. Or perhaps give the fort a 'moat' of some kind - emitting some menacing glows that really contrast against your building.
Smelting ref - looks cool methinks.
Just suggestions, discard as required
thanks for the comments though I will address them!
I liked the smoke stack shapes better in the first concept, but I like the circular platfrom design now and it's contrast to the squareness of the building.
I initially thought your techy pentagram generator things were robots laying prostrate in a circle, perhaps summoning some kind of evil robot demon.
