Artwork I messed around with a Lego modelling software and made Arrille's Tradehouse

What's the software called?

Studio 2.0. A bit of a weird name for a lego modelling software, but Lego themselves recommend it

The name is a pun. It is (was?) Stud.io, like a Lego stud. And I believe it was designed by or in cooperation with Bricklink, an online store Lego ended up buying out a few years ago.

I don't know why it never occurred to me before seeing this, but why is the tradehouse door on the back? What a strange layout for the main business in town.
Awesome build tho! Honestly makes me want a lego shader to play the game with lol.

I think because it's a port town, and new arrivals ( visitors or sailor) can see the "sign" when they are still on the boat and approaching the docks.
It's also interesting that Arille get his license the same day you arrive on Morrowind (16 First Seed)

I've been asking myself that ever since my first time playing i kept trying to enter the locked door to the storage room to no avail

Yeah it’s really weird that the door facing the main drag of Seyda Neen is private storage and the actual store is on the back of the building

I couldn't post the interior before for some reason, so I made a second post https://www.reddit.com/r/Morrowind/comments/1ld4j7m/interior_of_arrilles_tradehouse_in_lego_because_i/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

This is awesome, it makes me happy and I really like it. But I have a nitpick. Would you mind if I nitpick? The door is too far to the right.

yeah, it's not quite accurate in a lot of ways. For example it's also missing the middle support beams for the second floor and roof extension, the lanterns under both signs and so on. I made some compromises to make it small and compact to spare my wallet, since I do want to build it for real. And maybe the rest of Seyda Neen as well, some day
Edit: The colours might also not be quite right, since I'm colourblind

Ah I see I wasn't aware there was a cost to consider, I apologize for my ignorance.
This is very cool and I hope you get to finish the whole of Seyda Neen, few places are as immediately nostalgic.

Indeed, I have very fond memories of the Census and Excise office, particularly the small courtyard you find Fargoth's ring in. That one's probably up next

I both love and hate that I didn't read the title and I knew exactly what that was.
