Today in #Valheim I took some pics of our new town which was named Törshavn by @skyfire747
Here we see our village at dawn. We have a waterfront and high walls now which help protect us from enemy raids. I'm pretty happy with how the storehouse turned out. It has lots of storage space, a portal hub, kitchen, and space for several workshops.

Törshavn at dawn.  Golden light streams through the morning fog onto a town on a waterfront.  Several straw-roofed structures line the harbour.

Inside the storehouse we have many chests for storage. They are all labeled with signs.

The top floor of the store contains a portal hub.  A hole in the roof allows smoke from the kitchen to escape.

The kitchen is half-filled with smoke from the cooking fires.  Two barrels sit up on shelves fermenting meads.

@skyfire747 you'll need to go and change the signs on the gate because the o's have ö on them. 😊

Here's a look at some of the other structures that have been built within the walls of Törshavn. There's @si_fuller's arena with two practice dummies. The piggery, which auto-slaughters boar. We have a bath house on the waterfront. A cobblestone road runs the length of the village from the west gate to the north gate. We have several bee hives on the oak tree in the centre of town.

A small round wooden arena on the south side of town has two practice dummies for Vikings to practice their parrying skills.

This piggery houses and protects our pigs.  Since they have been in this protective structure, we have not lost a single pig to enemies or raids.  The building automatically makes smoked pork in the smoker underneath.

A bath house inspired by the roman bathhouses has been built on the waterfront.  Steps lead down into the pool of water.  Torches and seats have been placed around the edges.

A view of the town looking down the cobblestone road. We can see a large oak tree with bee hives mounted on it's trunk, the huge round storehouse building, and an abandoned house on the waterfront.

@dgar @si_fuller @skyfire747 that's such a beautiful game, even though the graphics aren't that good. But the lighting and the whole scenery is just magical...

@Bene it definitely has a low poly style and uses low resolution textures, but that lets me run it on a potato, or at 4.5K native resolution on my iMac, so it looks as good as RDR2 or Skyrim, especially when viewing things at a reasonable distance. They have done an amazing job with the lighting, too - couldn’t agree more. @si_fuller @skyfire747

Tǒrshavn is beginning to look quite picturesque now, with the Vikings that live there working hard and adding beautiful builds. Lirindel, our resident shield-maiden has been particularly creative. She's built a stylised viking ship, as well as a house she calls "The Wizards Hat".

It's been a fun place, where Vikings are encouraged to do the things they enjoy most about the game and let their imaginations run free. At this point in the game, it's just #cozy #Valhiem

Skyfire has his house on an island in the harbour which is now connected by a land bridge next to the bath house.  He has a jetty beside his house and a great view of the rest of Törshavn.

The tavern sits on a hill in the centre of town.  It has been largely abandoned since the store serves most of the town's requirements for rest and food now.

Outside the tavern are gardens for turnips and carrots that overlook the harbour and bath house.
