Conors CBB6 House!!! ALL pics now up!!!

[Conor]

I have been working on a masterplan of a new house lately, and I've decided rather than being a selfish miser I'll post it on Wedensday (Which unless I slept through the last day would be correct) So here it is, Conors New BB house!! Yeah... oh!

(PS, I would be grateful if someone did inform me if it is now Thursday and have slept through Wedensday lol :P)

[Xander]

What the heck is that indented bit with the lights? on the walkway..

[Conor]

Thats a new feature. You walk over the glass panel and there are lots of multi coloured lights underneath. I honesty only put it in to make the stage look a bit more lively lol

[Jack]

I really don't like the eye but the outside is probably the best outside of a house you've done so far. :thumbs:

[Conor]

Thanks Jack :spin2: I don't really like the eye myself. I was going to use the 'demented' eye instead, hence the stage colours lol but at the last minute I decided I'd work on a custom house to fit with the theme. I might actually re-do that 'eye'

[Spike]

I like it. I always think the outside is the weakest part of your houses but I like this one. Great work :thumbs:

[Conor]

Glad its likable enough Spike ;)

Thanky you for all the comments ppl! :thumbs2:

Ooh ok, good feature. :thumbs:

[Conor]

I have to agree there lol:

The stairs:

http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/bbfan3/Entrance2-1.jpg

http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/bbfan3/Entrance3-1.jpg


Points:

- First looks can be decieving...

[Loukas]

nice! but the stairs on the outside are a little dangerous lol but great love it!

[Spike]

I like it, especially the pattern on the door and wall.

[Ruth*Star]

I love the house, the walkways really nice, its a awesome house so far.

[Conor]

Thanks for all the poss comments everyone!

I'll post the dining area next :)

[Matt]

Looks good Conor, but I think the door into the house is slightly reminiscent of the BB7 staircase?

[geoking66]

You can do that with LEDs embedded on the runway but it's a good idea. The colours seem a little too basic, nothing stands out.

[Barbie]

i really like it and it has been designed so well
i have been trying to use sketch up for the past month on a house and have got nowhere if i ever get to do as well as you have i will be shocked at myself!

[Conor]

Matt - Your right lol
Geoking66 - Thanks again for more great lighting advice :) I guess the colours are a bit bland looking back lol
Barbie-Big-Bro - Thanks for commenting and practice makes perfect!

OK, here's the dining room!! :D

http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/bbfan3/Dining4-1.jpg


Points:

- Pespex heaven!
- The table is located in the 'Heart of the house.'
- As being made of perspex this room is very uncomfortable.
- Credit to Matt for coming up with the 'Swirl' idea on one of the walls ;)

[Loukas]

love it! "pespex hevean!" LOVE IT!

[Conor]

Same :laugh:

[Spike]

I Love the table but I don't really like the chairs, sorry.

[Conor]

Its OK Spike :) But I have to admit I'd have a love affair with these chairs! lol (Joke obviously. Just for the record I do not have Designer chair humping fantasies :thumbs:)

[Conor]

OK, heres the Kitchen :)

http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/bbfan3/Kitchen7.jpg


Points:

- Its not got any catches. For the first time in years, this si just a normal, straight farward kitchen :)
- The store is right beside the kitchen.
- The kitchen is sunk slightly to reach ground level. This is so the garden is accessable without having to have a big step or something like that.
- There is a small breakfast bar/island.
- And again, credi to Matt for that pink swirl ;)

[Conor]

Anyone like?

[Loukas]

LOVE IT!

love the way one stall is at a different angle!!!

great work!

[Ann]

wow Yes Great Work on That Conor Well Done I Will Give You 10/10 For That One Mate :laugh3::laugh3:

[Conor]

Thanks for the comments, and thanks for the amazing rating Ann! :spin:

[Spike]

I like it but I think the kitchens in your other houses are much better.

[geoking66]

The kitchen is really reminiscent of BB7, but it's good nonetheless.

[Conor]

Thanks for the comments! :)

[MR.K!]

dont give up... the house is amazing

[Conor]

[Spike]

I like it but I don't think this is your best house.

[Conor]

Either do I lol, but I altered it slighly after the origional model was made. I might post the altered pics at a later date, because the house looks so much better :)

[Conor]

It's the LIVING ROOM!!

Points:
- I HATE this room!

[Spike]

I love it, the only thing I don't like is the table in the middle of the room.

[Conor]

Thanks Spike!

Nout posted in ages, so onto one of my fav areas this time, the... BEDROOM!!!

http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/bbfan3/Bedroom6-3.jpg


Points:
- Gone are sqaubbles over single beds, cause they're all single!
- The bedroom is a calming burgandy colour.
- The door at the end of the room leads of to the bathroom.

[dupin]

That's nice - there's lots of room and it's a good colour scheme. That's a reaaally good bedroom.

[Conor]

Thanks Dupin! :D

- I wasn't keen on the colour sheme at first, but its growing on me :laugh:

[Spike]

WOW! Love it the colours work so well. Best part of the house so far!

[Conor]

Thanks Spike!

Thought I'd get these pics out of the way, it's the... BATHROOM!!!

Points:
- Little less perverted than the lsat bathroom!
- Has a very smooth and relaxing athmoshpere.
- No shower, just a bath :)
- Very small with little storage space. NICE.BUT.PRACTICAL?

[Spike]

Simple design, great use of colours, love it!

[pete_bennet]

it reminds me on the bb7 house too much

[dupin]

Everything seems kind of randomly allocated, I can't really tell where everything is supposed to be...I like it though.

[Conor]

It's the GARDEN pics!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Spike]

WOW love it!

Your best garden yet

[Captain.Remy]

The shape of the garden is really BB7-ish and the bathroom is the same as the BB6 one. I think you should have improved a little bit more and I saw that the kichen is quite similar to the BB7 one too.

[Jack]

Nice garden! I love the outside showers.

[Conor]

Thanks for the comments everyone! :)

That's why I like them :tongue:

[Loukas]

wow its great! :D well done

[Conor]

Thanks DT! I've been working on a CBB version of the house, and I can say it has made a MAJORLY better and more origional looking house. As the Exterior/ Stage and Stairs are virtually unchanged (excluding the random star here and there) I've decided to start with the new look BATHROOM!!

[dupin]

It's great - the only problem is that it appears the camera run runs into the toilet...

[Conor]

Thanks for the comments guys! I see what you mean Dupin. I guess some mirros can just be dummys to fill the spaces lol

[Conor]

Changes:

- The store door has been re-located.

- An extention has been added to the side of the kitchen, this continues half way along the living room (This will become clearer in a later set of pics)

[Loukas]

[\PJ/]

Well, I think it looks great, but I would lay of the same theme over and over and try to give each area a fresh colourful look, rather than it all being the same chequered theme. Its really good for a first house though :)

Ok, i suppose that is good advise. I think maybe I should change the corridor that HM's walk along, or just ged rid of it completly. Their is one more checkered area, and that is like all checkered! :S

Thanks for the tips!

[Conor]

No prob Magic, anyway time to post my fav area:

[Conor]

[bbcanada]

i have a question lol
how to you shrink objects that you download from the 3-D warehouse, I've been trying to figure it out for ages. lol
Thanks :)

[Good King Glennceslas]

The Garden puts me in mind of BB6. Really good work Conor, its brilliant!:cheer2:

[Conor]

Thanks for all the comments guys!!

And answer for bbcanada, just press the 'S' key on your keyboard over the item you want to resize, from there just click a green box to resize :wink:

Hope this helps!

[Spike]

I love this house because it reminds be of the BB6 house. I prefer the CBB version but both versions are brilliant

Changes:

- 2 extentions have been added onto the garden. A room for the new pool during the winter months and 1 extending out from the main house.
- The colour has been changed and the graden now looks much less mix-matchy.
- The showers have been removed.


Anyway, I've just began work on a BB9 project which will include

- An eye
- A house
- Studios
- New rules/format/theme ect
- And graphics

Finally, thanks for all the usual amazing possitive comments guys! I really do appreciate it :)

If, as usual, you could rate the house (out of 5) I'd appreciate it, and also if you want, could you add your fav areas?

So, once again. thanks and goodnight! :spin2:

[Conor]

Come on ppl!

[Joelston]

fantastic work. i love how it's been inspired by past bb houses, but the ideas hav been developed into fresh, new ones.

top class!

[Spike]

Love it as always.

Brilliant work, will you be making another house?

[Conor]

Thanks for the comments guy! Any ratings :(

Spike, I guess my BB9 project in more March, April time will be my last house for a long time. Possibly the last. It's already been finished and all I can promise is that as soon as you enter, things have changed... for the better :wink:

[Spike]

Can't wait to see it

I just had a look through all the pics to see if there was any reason not to give you 5/5 for this house.

Brilliant house, best house on tibb, 5/5

[Conor]

Thanks for your amazing comment and rating Spike!

[Sam!]

Bit to big (garden) but its amazing... as usual!!!! Can't wait for more of your work Conor.

[JOSHUAH!]

Brillant work! I really love this house, its so realistic. Like someone else said, you've taken past designs from the houses but really twisted them and made it look new, but its still got that spark that looks like a true BB house. Can't wait to see the BB9 project later in the year, sounds great.

[Conor]

Thanks for the coments guys! Looks like this house is better than anything previous I've created! :hugesmile:

[Conor]

Conor's BB9 project. Coming soon...

Change.Is.For.The.Better?

MARCH 08

[Simple_Plan]

I'm gunna say 3.5/4 out of 5 as it was pretty simalar to BB6 however its 5 out of 5 for effort

[Jake!]

5/5. 10/10. Either one its still perfect. I think the main reason alot of people's work is like the BB6 house is because its the best one the UK has used...
