Working Water Mill - propelled by real water!

Post by Toltomeja »

This creation was built primarily for LugPol's contest - "Building Better Worlds". Challenge two was to depict some mechanism working. Here it is: a medieval water mill building, with the wheel propelled by flowing stream of real water.

To see it best, feel free to watch the film on Youtube or Flickr, as you like.

Very nice texturing! I really like your combination of green with the rocks.

The build itself is awesome, but with the functionality is really cool too.
You would rather be building right now.
