Setton
Village of the Breeland

Meta
/warp setton
Project leaders: raarmmaarwaar, LimeeFox
Resource Pack: EQPack Eriador
Region: Breeland

Background
Setton is a village which isn’t cannon in Tolkien’s works, as we invented this location. But we can’t rely on just the few places Tolkien named. Setton is located in Eriador, and more precisely in Breeland, south of Bree. It stands between on the east-west road between the South Downs and the Barrow Downs.

Outline
There is a good balance between the landscape, which should be rather easy to complete, and structures. We think that the atmospherics (outside decoration), however, will be very important here.

We have designed two houses, that we shall use as example for all the houses in the village. Both of those houses are a bit different from one another, it’s so to add a bit of variety. Let’s try to stick to those designs.
One of the two designs has a block palette variant: birch & oak. They both can be used. If there are enough requests, we can write or record a tutorial on how to build such houses, but since we have only 22 houses to worry about, I’m sure it will be sorted out rapidly.
The thread will be updated with progress and instructions as the project proceeds.

Woodcutter’s house.

Worker’s house.

Village elder.

Build and decorate an old man’s house. Not only the man that lives in this house is old, the house it self is also very old. The house should feel old. Once you enter it you must see that their lives someone old.

Carpenter.
