This week: Environment of the Week!

The mansion has been a part of your family for centuries, and now, after years of wars, invasions and natural disasters, is a derelict, abandoned construction. In its heyday, this place was the central astronomical observatory for the Empire, an unparalleled center of science and discovery. It is now time for you to take possession of this place and to write a new chapter in its history and that of your family.

Your task: Design your family's mansion, a once great monument of science.
*You may design it as it was, as it is (broken down), or after you reconstruct it.

Guidelines:

• The focus of the illustration must be the environment and its design
  
• You may include characters or creatures but they must not be the focus
  
• Photo textures, 3D, and traditional mediums are allowed.
  
• Studies are recommended, but not required.
  
• There is no restriction on image formats (horizontal, vertical, square).
  
• Keep in mind you are not required to strictly stick to what is in the passage. It is more of a guide in terms of mood.
  

Rules:

• You must post at least one WIP in the WIP thread to be accepted into the final poll.
  
• Finals must be posted in the finals thread before the deadline.
  
• Only ONE final entry please.
  
• Sketches, WIPs, or rushed artwork will not be accepted into the poll.
  
• No fanart. We want to see your original, unique interpretations!
  
• Have fun!
  

Deadline is Sunday, May 24 @10pm GMT
