Hemoglobin Hollow

My one and only LEGO Universe Property, Hemoglobin Hollow!

The idea for this property was a tree growing through the middle
of the castle. It then moved to the concept of a monster tree
that had lifted the castle up. My digital skills are (IMHO)
inferior to my real life building skills, and the tree turned
out a bit lackluster. The game play concept was to run it
similar to a LU mission chain, moving from one task to another.
So the first task is to find a way up to the castle to save the
vampire. (forget the fact that vampires can transform into bats
and fly away) when you approached the tree, it would look
something like this:

Then upon closer inspection, it...well... it woke up...

After attacking the tree's arms, and smacking both eyes a couple
times, the tree gives up and reveals an opening.

I'm just going to say it now. I am super proud of my staircase.
To date I think it was the best part of this property.
Heres a photo of the castle itself. As you can see, the tree
turned out to be more of a stump than a true tree... Little
disappointed with that.

Feel free to check out the rest of the images on Flickr. I have
about 20 over there. I'm going to try to get the video of it up
on youtube soon.
Thanks for looking!

This is pretty much the most awesome concept evolution I have
witnessed in a long time.
I love the mission chain.
The staircase was indeed exceptional..
I also loved the ghost!!

Cool! I wish I could have seen this while the game was still
open.
Missions chains were a lot of fun to make on properties... I
wish LEGO would add a feature where you could make properties in
LDD. That's probably the thing I miss most about LU; The fact
that you could create and explore a LEGO creation like never
before. It was truly a wonderful and unique experience.

Exactly! Just a simple 3rd person minifig perspective option.
Would make LDD much more fun!

Stealing that staircase design. If you don't mind, of course.
And everything else is awesome too!
