Hmmm… I like the tall towers by themselves, but going along the wall like that the shorter ones go better!
Maybe majority short, with strategistically placed tall “look out” towers?
That is a glorious death. You die pretty.

That is really neat, I’m going to have to go check that out! People are really doing some cool stuff on my home planet lately! Sasquachville, the UltaMech build, and now this.

That’s an amazing effect. I must learn this magic.

I’ve gotten a similar effect by placing gleam in the ground, then a few pieces of foliage on top. Makes a nice gradient glow. I didn’t think it would show through marble tho 
I didn’t seem gleam on the outside, so I guess it’s hidden within. I must’ve stared at this building for half an hour lol

guess the cats out of the bag on my build. I’m still about 2 weeks off from unveiling but if you are interested on how the lighting works I’m located near the ultima hub on alder. If I am there I can show you how it works. I use many different methods within the build.

If you chisel two blocks into slopes, so that the sharp edges touch, the game treats this as an opening for light, even though they are visually connected…
At least, that’s how I’ve done it.
And yeah, SUPER awesome work! That build is INCREDIBLE!
F***e, that’s a name I’m going to remember!

Playing around with a few blocks and I think I’ve figured out how it’s done. Now… where shall I use this awesome effect? (Off course original credit for the idea goes to - @Fante 
)

The “method” was in EA you could do the same thing with ice too.

Any more cool EA secrets you’d like to share? I can pay with donuts next Tuesday but I wanna sample the knowledge first.

We may need a separate thread for Building How Toos
I do not want to forget this one

Thanks for the kind words everyone. As conditionred posted a screen shot above this is one of the methods I use in the build. I use few others to get different shapes and will most likely build a lighting lessons tutorial underneath the build if my mesh limit cooperates (I’m already having issues and hoping they raise the limit like James said in April 2018). Otherwise it might have to be an offsite build.
