Pixeleen's Workshop 01

Ready for a convenient yet cute workshop for your industrial forge? This is a circular stone base design with the force placed in the center and surrounded by essential standard crafting benches: double fabricator, double smithy, double chem bench, generator, and double vaults. The best perk though - is that the top of the forge peaks through the roof onto a landing pad for your argy and anky. Quickly deposit your raw metal from the roof and head out for another run without needing to open any doors or enter the building. While this base looks...alright I guess with the standard stone, it is so much nicer with Bob Tale's Frontier Glass skin. To take it a step further, and to copy the look as seen in the photographs, I personally love the addition of the white accents and the Elven style applied for dramatic effect. All of the white designs you see in the photos are from a free Cosmetic (not a mod) called "Woodborn Tribes", which you can download and use on any PVE server from the Ark Mods & Cosmetics in-game search. This workshop can be built in any relatively flat area, but it looks beautiful near white trees found on Astraeos, map pin for the exact build location is listed below.

Pixeleen's Beach House 01

Take a vacation! Get away from your noisy fabricator filled base and enjoy some seagulls in a small bungalow! A one story wooden home built on pillars, with a patio to park your flyer while napping in the sun. Walls are dyed white. To complete the look use Bob's Tales Frontier to add some glass features; the best way to view the sunset over the ocean! No mods. White dye needed. Bob's Tales recommended. Relaxation guaranteed.

Pixeleen's Compact Starter

Compact 2x3 stone starter designed with low rates or official settings in mind. This base is 2x3 foundations and 1.5 stories high to fit almost anywhere. The interior will fit a fabricator, 2 smithies, storage, mortar and pestles, a generator of course, fridge, preserving bin, forge, campfire, and beds. The back of the base includes exterior window access to easily load the forge. I'll be starting a fresh play through on Astraeos, and this base is the design I'll be using as a solo player. This is not specifically designed with PVP in mind, but I do imagine that this compact build would be well suited for PVP due to it's extremely small size. While this is not an exceptionally unique looking shoebox of a base, it is useful and I'll be uploading all of my builds from the new Astraeos playthrough; including this little guy! To see it in use, check out my youtube channel! p.s. Personally feel the little base looks nice when partially skinned with Bob's Tale's Frontier, mixed with the default stone. Skins are optional. No mods used.

Pixeleen's River Base 01

Tucked away in a woodland river waterfall, this base stands on only a few pillars, has 3 floors, a wrap around porch, water access through a trap door, and has many greenhouse components. Recommend Bob's Tales Frontier glass skin for all of the small windows. No mods were used. When placing the template, it works best in medium/shallow water. May need to manually attach additional stone pillars to the bottom of the supports if one or two supports do not reach the river bottom. The porch is easy to expand or build your own bridge from the porch out to land. Hope you like it!

Pixeleen's Forge Outpost

This stone base is designed to accommodate an industrial forge along with a generator and storage. Built as an outpost near metal, it stands on pillars to be as flexible as possible on rocky ground. The forge area is accessed through a dino gate, as well as interior door to easily transferred ingots into storage. The forge roof is partially exposed to allow an argent to drop an anky directly infront of the forge and land safely on a roof patio. Protected by 2 turrets, both your argy and your anky can sleep in the forge bay out of danger. No mods required, however the template does include Bob's Tales Frontier lamps. And the end result visually looks great if a few walls are skinned in Frontier glass (optional). See the speed build video for a closer look!

Pixeleen's Starter Thatch Base 02

From the outside it's a simple thatch hut, but from the inside, enjoy being surrounded by gardens thanks to Bob Tale's Frontier glass skin. Personally prefer mixing original thatch alongside some frontier skins, but the glass applied to the interior walls is almost mandatory for this design. Base has a small front porch, bird loft area, and a garden. Template includes an interior layout with basic starter items such as a forge and storage space. As a lover of plants, this is my favorite little beach hut <3

Pixeleen's Starter Wood Base 02

If you liked Wood Base 01 but found it a tad small, this is an expanded version of the same design. Includes a second floor with raised back porch and more space in the dino garage. Made fully from wood, includes 1 campfire, 3 large storage boxes, and 1 chair.

Pixeleen's Metal Base 01

Compact small base built completely out of metal and greenhouse. Stands on multiple pillars for uneven ground placement. Has various porches, a small 2nd floor with a skylight. For a more secure design could replace the greenhouse sections with metal. Room under the stairs ideal for a generator. No mods required.

Pixeleen's Dino Pen 02

Semi-enclosed, circular, dino pen made fully with wood. Includes roof access. Door ramps can be extended manually as needed; ramps were shortened in the build to prevent clipping issues. Personally prefer placing the pen with a fairly high foundation height to give a raised-platform feel. Built for dino storage or small to medium sized dino breeding. Has multiple entrances for flexibility. Looks nice without a roof as well.

Pixeleen's Starter Wood Base 01

Small starter base made fully with wood. Interior main base area is 9 foundations, large enough for early game fabricator, smithy, generator, and storage. Attached is a 6 foundation fully enclosed dino garage. Template includes 1 campfire and 3 large storage boxes. Personally prefer using the Bob's Frontier Glass skin on the windows, optional. Looks best if you add additional railings to the outside ramps and stairs, omitted from the template to prevent ground clipping errors.

Pixeleen's Dino Pen 01

Dino pen intended for early game tames. Built primarily from thatch and uses a wooden dino gate. Recommend a relatively flat area. Can easily expand the pen using additional fence foundations as you tame more dinos or replace with stronger building materials. No mods required. No skins used.

Pixeleen's Starter Thatch Base 01

Small starter thatch hut to live your best beach life. Has a front porch, roof access, and a side patio intended as a forge area or loading dock. Template includes 1 campfire, 1 large storage box, and 2 small storage boxes. Personally prefer applying optional Bob's Tales Frontier cosmetics while leaving some sections as thatch as seen in the first picture.
