Clamlips - 21 Early Spring by galaban

Map Description:

This is Clamlips, nine years after embarkation.

This is a historical record showing the progress of the fortress. The only new developments are that the first mural project (at the bottom of the arena) is now complete. Also, the Grand Mural Project has begun with the digging of the room.

Points of Interest

18. Grand Mural / Mosaic Project

( 19 Mid Winter to 22 Early Summer )
This is my Grand Mosaic Project.

I just picked a picture from the internet of some mountains, converted it into colors that would work with DF (and the stone available), and just kind of guessed and checked on the placement of each block.

The mural is made entirely from constructed floor, roads, floor grates, and one-tile bridges. Oh, and there's a few upright spikes thrown in.

The stone is cobaltite (dark blue), microcline (light blue/cyan), schist (brownish), green glass (green), mica (dark gray), felsite (light gray), and alunite (white).

The most time consuming aspect of this mural was making all the green glass floor grates and blocks for all the green. The most challenging was mapping a picture to the DF world and trying to choose what constructions/buildings to use. - galaban
17. Obsidian factory

( 17 Early Spring to onwards )
This is a basic obsidian factory. Unfortunately, I forgot to dig a place for the water tank, so I had to stick it two z-levels above. The water is kept in place by a floor hatch, controlled by a level outside the main entrance to the obsidian factory.

The doorways, one z-level above, are both sealed off when the room is being flooded with magma/water. One z-level up is a statue to help me not overshoot and channel out too much (releasing the lava). Also, it helps indicate that I need to channel out one square to the right of the magma to release the lava. Fun, fun! - galaban
