Hey, I thought I'd post some more forge creations on here, enjoy.

Blue Base
For anyone who has watched Red vs. Blue, here is a Blue Base that I built.

Very basic layout and keeps the same basic layout on top.


Added the Landing Pad at the end.


This is the side entrance just below the landing pad. There are also a couple mongoose and a ghost inside there.


The main entrance to Blue Base. I really like how the stairs look.

Red Base
I've had a problem with Red Base because I did not want to have it be a carbon copy of Blue Base. DaMenace was originally building the Red Base and he was trying to build it like Sarge would build it if Sarge had built it(RvB reference). This is when you find the real limitations of forge world that many pieces just do not fit right. It is unfortunate because I think it keeps people from really designing some great stuff because of frustration. So I went ahead and redesigned his version of Red Base but also trying to keep it the same basic layout. Also adopting the motto, "What would Sarge do?"

So I'm going to post some pictures of his original base first because I liked it. Keep in mind both are unfinished.

The original back door




The original "hero" shot.

Upper exterior "throne"?

I hope you have enjoyed looking at these and if anyone has reach, lets get a forging party going some weekend and just mess around.



And on a lighter side, please no one get offended, its just a joke.

Wow that is impressive. Definitely need to check it out.

Hopefully forge won't have the same lag issues we were having with co-op.

Oh wow, I'm so sorry.. I've been so busy with college and work.. especially now.. Things kinda went downhill for me personally as well for a bit here.. :-/
Regardless I will eventually have more free time and will be able to play online again.. just not until this very last semester is over!..

The bases look awesome, so well done!
