New to Slap-Snap? Need building help? Wanne see more? Go to Nirosu's Series Menu : http://forums.slapgaming.com/showthread.php?7816-Nirosu-s-Menu
Greetings, been a while since the last Slap-Snap, but now it's finally back with new features! but for good old Slap-Snap's sake, this once will have none of those new features : D
This week we're having a Slap-Snap about Leviathan1992, an ex-mod from 2012, who came back to the server not long ago, since he has some epic builds, I was hoping he'd come back for a slap-snap, and fortunately, as you can see, a Slap-Snap :D
As for today Leviathan1992 is a guide, but who knows, he might climb his way back to a mod, I'm rooting for him :3
Although this Slap-Snap is mostly about Levi, we cannot ignore the fact that in many of Levi's build yet another person was involved, Sporklyn, who is also a guide as for today and a former staff with an high rank.
I'd like to state that all the builds in this Slap-Snap are refering to the Old World, with an expection of one build in the new downtown, creative.
We'll start with the pictures:
413
We'll start with this thing here, Ocean Castle, one of the oldest builds on the server, as far as I know, this project in fact was not started by Leviathan, but thank to Levi, it is what it is today, a beautiful majestic castle, it might have no interior, but that doesn't make it any less epic~
414
Next, we have this exclusive look in a new work in progress, right from creative world downtown.
415
This is a picture of Levi's and Sporklyn's house in the old world's capital city, it's an interesting nether-like structure that doesn't look out of place, trust me, that's something, nether bricks in builds might look tempting, but it's bound to insert chaos out of place in the hands of those who cannot use it right.
416
and of course, best for last, with this picture, and the next one. This one is of yet another epic build, Sand Castle, both sand castle and ocean castle are available for sightseeing through the launcher pads at old spawn, be sure to take a look, especially on this one!
417
And finally, The Dark Portal, indeed one huge and epic build with yet another tp pad at old spawn! just show you how far has Levi went with his builds :)
And now, for the interview part :
1. Could you tell us about your experience on the Slap-Gaming minecraft server?
I made some great friends on the server, and it's generally a really energetic place to be. There were some issues along the way, but hey, that's gonna happen anywhere you go, can't be avoided. However, it is good to see that SLAP is still going strong after all this time.
2. How long did it take you to do your builds?
Most of them were quite lengthy projects, as I was a full time uni student at the same time and that took most of my time. The Dark Portal took me the longest, at about 3 weeks from start to finish.
3. Where does your inspiration come from?
I wouldn't say I've really got an inspiration. I tend to see a picture of something and go "huh, that could make a pretty good project" and then I'll build it. I do have Spork poking me every now and then to keep motivated though :P
4. Could you give some tips for the fellow aspiring builders?
Start small. If you aim for a big build as your first project, you're probably gonna run into problems due to lack of experience and it won't go well. Pick a small project first to practise skills on, and work your way up.
5. Any additional info you'd like to share?
Not really. Be good, kids!
That's all for this week's Slap-Snap Reborn, might've been a bit rusty, since I haven't done this in a while, but worry not, as there are many more to come, as much as the amount of great builders and people among our Server!
