This is a new monastery for Arabic architecture nation. It was a copy paste from some part of arabic building. The file contain only bmp graphic and slp graphic. You can use it for anything you like. If you use it on your own mod, please give a credit to me, as I was the creator.
I was new in graphic modding, so if there is bad thing on this, please comment/critic.
Thank you, especially if you download it.
This new building by Pepp represents a moorish mosque and is an early showcase of the author’s work, being his first submission to the Blacksmith. The graphic is upload as a BMP, so work would need to be done to convert it into an SLP to import it into the game.
Usefulness/Novelty: 4
There are a number of Arabic looking churches and mosques that one could download to enhance their Middle Eastern scenarios, yet this one seems to be a little different than others. Firstly is totally unique in its design, being a lot smaller than many other similar Mosques, which makes it much more useful in smaller towns and cities. It’s also a lot more generic looking so I t could be used for other buildings such as a mansions or town hall. The building blends perfectly well into the game as it uses the same graphics and textures from the other buildings.
Quality/Instructions: 3.5
Being Pepp’s first upload it great to see how much he has developed in his designing ability since he made this building. This building is a great mod but lacks finishing and extra detail, making it look a little unpolished. The building is made using traditional copy and paste techniques. The skill on display is her is great and the building has been pasted together with great skill. All it needs is some polishing off just to smooth the edges and blend some of the different elements together a bit better. The spire on the side of the building is nice but seems a bit random and doesn’t really fit with the style of the rest of the building. It also limits the usefulness of the building and the ability to use it for other purposes.
Additional Comments:
Overall this is a nice little building with some great uses, but just needs some extra work to really please the eye. Its great to look back on this and then look at the designers later works to see how much he has improved.
