Description

*inhales*

look i know the building doesnt need to be half that detailed i know how to make fast shit i did it at my last job im just doing this for myself to jack off to because i like buildings i live in Budapest for fokssake just look at Budapest thanks bye

...

...That aside, after submitting the 2017 dump i noticed that the world didn't end and the sky didn't fall on me and so many people were so supportive, It got me in the mood for sharing some more. 2016 was different, i did more commissions, bigger commissions so less time was spent on personal art. 

The building is 134.5m in length, 4 stories high including the attic space, and with oldschool floor heights, generally covered by a mansard roof, and i did my best to give it realistic wall and floor widths, and other things such as realistic staircases, doors, furniture etc. It does use metal beams for support, the central halls and library are especially thicc.

The basics are complete, the design is half-done (like the library staircase is a bit on the ugly&unfinished side atm but don't judge me it was a difficult birth lol stairs hate me). Some of the building's features that work here might not work irl e.g. some lighting and heating issues that are non-issues here.

His majesty's name is the Kellandian Academy of the Aetherweaving Arts & Crafts (KAAAC). Run by ~310 core residents/staff plus students plus civilians plus visitors (housing is in separate buildings). It was never used as a palace, its function is a school, but it was also built to show off. There is a dick-measuring contest going on between schools but this campus is also trying to look imposing toward the country's government, so much so that presently the school is the capital of the county it resides in. There aren't any cities in it, so for now it isn't a clusterfuck. They are basically kings of a bunch of farmers and shepherds. Mankind in general has some issues keeping their catsmages on a leash but this bunch especially is famous for being cocky lil freedom-loving shits.

For reference i have  The Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Saint Petersburg Academy of Arts, Palace of Ajuda, Eisenhower Executive Office Building, Galleria Mazzini, Waddesdon Manor, the art school i went to, Schönbrunn Palace, The Louvre, University of Münster, Potsdam Palace, Palace of Grand Duke Pavel Alexandrovich, Hofburg Palace, Rohan Palace (Strasbourg), Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte, Buda Castle, Vajdahunyad Castle, Philadelphia City Hall, Cooper Union's Foundation Building, Natural History Museum (Vienna), ELTE University Library, Austrian National Library, The Klementinum library, Chetham's Library, Oxford Queen's College Library, The Breakers mansion and... other things. I listed the more important ones at the top and i didn't list everything.

You know it's kinda hard to squeeze usable architectural info out of Google??? But now i know things like why is our roof (irl) bad and what would it take to fix it. It doesn't lack insulation, it has inadequate insulation. The hot dry air from the living spaces go up to meet with the cold damp air from the sky and moisture gets stuck there because of zero ventilation and crap insulation and boom you got a moldy attic that leaks. You bet my academy building will be free from that bs, my attics will be perfect little angels

I was going for design-less untextured blocks initially to save time, but screw that with a jackhammer, i'm makin a fully customized dollhouse, our love cannot be stopped, i am serious, i will have its children
