This isn't much compared to most of what I see here, but I gave the teleporter room in my group's fairly-oldschool-style base a facelift yesterday on account of the new zone beacons and I'm very pleased with the result:

 

    

I color-coded the vegetation and torches on each platform, as well as added colored effects to the teleports themselves, to make things easier to find (blue for hero, red for villain, yellow/white for Praetoria, green for hazard and trial zones, purple for Shadow Shard and Pocket D).

 

Also the detailing around the entrance and the skylights isn't new but I'm proud of it, so:

I made a Christmas tree in my arcane mansion. Complete with tree stand, star, and magical snow!

The Villainous Inverted Beast of a Pyramid is complete! The base holds the teleports and NPCs, ATMs, etc. Mid section holds workshop and the tip is for lounging.

Ok it looks fabulous but.....

 

The tip is for lounging......

 

Just the tip?

 

Can I lounge?

In the same tradition of Myst Have I've made another "village" style base called Brentwood.  Nestled between Kings Row and Brickstown, Brentwood has a larger population than Myst Have (about 250) of 2600.  Currently working on different shops such as an automotive shop, a bank, ice cream shop (because yes, there needs to be an ice cream shop), a recreation facility with basketball court and baseball diamond, and a few other shops.  Here's what I've got so far.

 

Spoiler

 

Basic view of the streets in Brentwood.  Left side has all the actual businesses, while the right side is a set of faux apartments.  Skylight 2 works really well for third floor windows.

 

 

The weekly newspaper for Brentwood, the Brentwood Courier-News.

 

 

Radio station, WABC-FM, 98.5 The Brick.

 

 

As yet unnamed restaurant.

 

 

Side street leading to Nick's Storage.

 

 

Brentwood Grocers, which even has one of those coin op horses outside.  Myst Haven has one.  Whoever produced them is making a killing.

 

 

As I only have a limited space to post pics, this is part one!  Part two is coming!

[Flintlock Burnfur]

And here's part 2!

 

Spoiler

 

Small coffee shop called Cuppa.  Complete with sidewalk seating.

 

 

Hammond Travel, with locations in Myst Haven and Brentwood.

 

 

Health Centre, complete with a V-TOL craft for transporting serious patients to the hospitals in Kings Row or Brickstown.

 

 

Brentwood's got an Icon!

 

 

The first business/residence for one of my characters, Dixon Lee.  He's a private investigator.  His office is on the left side, parking garage on the right.  Elevator in the middle which goes up to his second floor studio apartment.

 

 

The rental for my second character, Fransaskois/Erica Lafayette.  A small two storey house with detached garage.  A room above the garage can be used for storage or a second apartment.

The latest addition to Brentwood.

And now, everyone can have this in their head.

New update to Brentwood!  The ball diamond is almost complete.

Maybe not as flashy as some of you other guys, I like to keep it simple, after all; I'm the only occupant in the base so. I don't need much room 😉

all the villain statues seemed a very good fit for chess board... white or heroes had to make do with generics

How many bars does Paragon City need anyway? The answer is "at least one more" because I've just finished building an Irish pub. The Wooden Stag is now open for business in King's Row. TheStag-13865

I spent all day yesterday building a small steampunk airship base for my alt, Tess LaVolt.

 

I'm finally at the point where I'm okay with sharing the base with all of you: TESS-18557.  

The airship has a aft sitting parlor, Cargo Hold port side and Repair Bay starboard side.  The Bridge has Engineering port-side and Navigation starboard-side.

There's an elevator which will take you topside to the Observation Deck and the Crow's Nest.

Nice.  I made a chess set for the Crowned Heads base, with mostly Tech pieces for White and Arcane for Black....

You do get to face a classic opponent.......

[wei yau]

I did some remodeling on the exterior of the SS Electric Eagle

[Grindingsucks]

Wow, that is way cool.  👍

[Hyperstrike]

Must be nice.

For me, the base editor hovers between useless and completely non-functional.
And I just don't know why.

It COULD be my high resolution.  But I play elsewhere and don't have this issue.

[Grindingsucks]

@Hyperstrike Well, you could try turning the resolution down while working in the base editor and see if that makes a difference.

Doesn't work very well.
I have to fiddle my Windows desktop resolution or I'm playing in a narrow-tall Window or section of my screen.
And these are the resolution choices I'm given.



Trying to go full screen basically causes some alignment issues.

Hm... very strange.  Maybe post on the discord and see if anyone can offer a solution.  Otherwise, sometimes you can find people willing to build a base for you.  I know others have gone that route.

It's a multi-monitor thing and the way I'm running things is VERY non-standard.

Had I known exactly what a problem it was going to be, I'd have gone for the non-4K monitor (2560x1440 IIRC) and run them native res.
As it is, I'm having to use screen magnification to keep the desktop legible (4K on 27" monitors is nigh-illegible).
(And it woulda saved me about $800 too!)
 

[Grindingsucks]

Sorry!  Sounds like a pain.  👀
