Ellie's #TBT - Mexican Cantina

Hey guys,

It's Thursday, so you know what that means... time for a #TBT! Let's take a look!

This igloo was supposed to be my first post on the blog! I was so nervous and I wasn't satisfied with it so I didn't end up posting it.

This igloo includes:

• Two benches outside of the restaurant
• A patio with outdoor seating
• Three indoor booths
• A stage for live music
• A bar
• Open kitchen 

Hm, still not perfectly happy with it, but I don't hate it either. If I were to rate it, I'd give it a 8.5/10. What do you guys think? Be sure to comment and rate below!

Igloo Discoveries #75 : Lillybear216's igloo!

Hey everyone. I was recently on Blizzard and found this pretty cool igloo made by Lillybear216 which I believe is a Water Park! Take a look *Excuse the outfit* :

Water Park igloo by Lillybear216

I like the use of the steps in the igloo and the structure at the back. I also like the colours in this igloo. Maybe to improve the wood could be neater, particularly in the lower right.

What do you think of the igloo, let me know in the comments and maybe Lillybear216 will see the comments and improve her igloo :)

Beachfront Cafe igloo by Verde Sal

Hey everyone, it's Verde Sal here. Today I have a new igloo for you, a Beachfront Cafe. Here it is:

I had a lot of fun with this idea, and I think it turned out great. I would have liked to add more detail, but of course the item limit got in the way. Anyway, feel free to leave a comment below with a rating out of 10! Peace,

New Blog Series - Ellie's #TBT

Hey guys!

Ellie here. As the school year comes to a close, I've been totally swamped in work (especially now, as testing begins), and I haven't had much time to come up with new designs. Thus, I've decided to take a page out of Mel's book, and start posting "throwback" igloos in order to do share designs whilst focusing on school.

These #TBTs (which stands for throwback Thursday to those who aren't familiar with social media) will be posted every first and last Thursday of each month from now until the end of June, when I'll be able to start making igloos again.

Like Mel's Throwbacks, these igloos, a combination of old works and TIC entries, will allow you guys to rate and give suggestions on some of my past not-so-perfect designs. And, by June, the top three tbts (based upon views and comments) will be remade using your advice! I look forward to seeing which ones you want me to remake.

Since it is in fact Thursday, I will be starting today! There will be a tbt next Thursday as well, and then I will continue with the previously stated posting schedule.

Without further ado, let's check out my first #tbt!

---

Wow, it'd be crazy not to start with this one! For those of you who don't recognize it, this was the igloo that started it all for me! Back in August, when I 'auditioned' to be an author on the blog, this Ancient Rome igloo was my submission that landed me this position, and it helped me to have been discovered for TIC as well. 

This igloo includes:

• An aqueduct
• Two market stands, selling fruit and fish
• A Roman villa
• A well of some sort (I assume one that channelled water from the aqueduct) 

Well, while I'm still pretty proud of this one, looking at it a second time really makes the errors apparent. What do you guys think? Be sure to rate and comment below with suggestions.

See you next Thursday!

Harbour igloo by Harry Cp

Igloo Discoveries #74 : Fabby Abi's igloo!

Hello everyone. The other day my good friend, Fabby Abi, decided to show me some of her latest igloo designs. I was particularly impressed by her Hunters Cabin which I believe is her best igloo to date. Take a look :

Hunters Cabin igloo by Fabby Abi!

The entire igloo is filled and she was creative by making the house. All that's missing is some furniture inside the house.

Puffle Park igloo by Harry Cp!

Hey guys! Unfortunately most of you are back to school tomorrow but I still have another week off school and will be travelling to London, perhaps I'll get some inspiration for an igloo? Anyway, today I made an igloo using the furniture from the March 2015 furniture catalog which was all about puffles. I decided to make a Puffle Park igloo (not to look like the room on Club Penguin) and here is how it turned out :

Puffle Park igloo by Harry Cp!

This igloo includes:

• Puffle swings
• Tree tunnels
• Wild berry bushes
• Ancient penguin and puffle statue

As always, let me know what you think of this igloo by leaving a comment with a rating /10 and any suggestions which I could use to help improve my igloo - Thanks guys!

FURNITURE ITEMS ARE TOO BIG!

Today Club Penguin released their new furniture items for April 2015! I was delighted to find some more casual, normal items... a new range of Chairs, Vases w/ flowers & TV's! However, I was not happy to find that these items are simply too big...

As you can see, there is a huge difference (No pun intended). I like consistency with igloo items which allows me to mix and match different styles of furniture. How am I meant to use this new furniture successfully when it's simply too big. If you look at the new BIG furniture, they take up almost double or even triple the size of the older items. If the items continue to become too big, we won't be able to use them because we want to be creative with our igloo... Too big items means less space for originality and creativity.

 

You may be thinking, it's good to have a range of item sizes! But you have to admit, these items are too big and just won't work with any other items because the other items we have in our inventory and much smaller.

You may be thinking, if you prefer the old items, use them! But I actually like these items, but they are TOO BIG! 

SOLUTION : Since the arrow keys allow us to slightly modify the item, why not let us modify the size of the item so people who want the items big are HAPPY AND people who want the items small are HAPPY :)

Ocean Obstacle Course by JaydenCP

Hey! I have an original idea today which is an Ocean Obstacle Course. I was inspired to make this by an obstacle course in a water park that I went to last week. Anyways, check it out! :D

Well, what do you guys think about this igloo? Comment down below any ratings or thoughts to improve this igloo! p.s tbh i think it looks messy when i look at it now.. Also the obstacles were climbing walls, small floating trampolines, tubes, and this balance bridge.

Cya Later!
