ARK Fjordur: Fortfied Helm's Deep Build Tour

In this video I give thanks and show you around the fortified helm's deep build. With some subtitles explaining some inspiration behind the build itself.
Extra details:
No collision building is on
The only things S+ in the build are some gates and the torches inside; The rest is all vanilla.

Little about me: I enjoy playing video games with friends, watching anime, working out and eating! I've wanted try and make YT vids/ build a community with common interests for quite some time now and am finally getting around to the attempt, I'm still learning the ropes but I hope you enjoy what's to come!

This is hands down the best build I ever seen. Gonna have to try and replicate this. I'd so love a build tutorial on this! Back to watching this master piece and trying to copy the details 👌

[@allarian8726]

Base looks amazing, especially the tek cave part. Im not usually a fan of tek themed builds, but this was an example of it done right!

[@behnu]

Words cannot describe how shocked I was when that first tek gate opened. I absolutely love every single structure in this build.

Much appreciated, glad you liked it.

This is an amazing base. I didn't think tek or metal structures could be pulled off in a medieval build but you have proven me wrong. It looks intimidating and all. Stunning job!

[@CodyKish]

Thanks! I didn’t want metal structures to overwhelm the natural structure of the castle. Glad it broke it up well.

This is beyond amazing. I can only guess how much time, effort, materials, and creative energy went into this. Great video showcase as well. While I don't know if I will ever be so ambitious, it does give me some inspiration for future projects, as I just moved to Fjordur and am scouting base locations.

[@CodyKish]

Much appreciated, thanks! And in my opinion as long as you don’t plan to build just a box that’s creative enough for me 😂. Hope you enjoy the map, mate.

[@reefer6587]

Sick build man! If I may suggest, place mannequins equipped with bows on the walls to make it look like you have actual guards. I also thought of lining the courtyard with mannequins before to make it look like the castle has a standing army but your crafting area looks amazing too! As for the area with the waterfalls, I placed two greenhouses connected by a bridge on top of the river but you already have a green room so it's not really practical for you to have that "castle garden" area.

[@CodyKish]

True. I should’ve atleast seen how mannequins would have looked lined up along the walls.

[@nissveneficus1860]

I’d love to see your work like this in collaboration with other ark builders for a machinima or something would be really cool

[@CodyKish]

That would be cool. Maybe some day

[@andrewthegreat1214]

Liked and subscribed! Absolutely loved this build I have been looking everywhere on fjördur for cool tek base builds and yours is by far the best maybe in the future you can do a complete build guide! Also if by any chance you'll do another build on fjördur I suggest the cave at the very top of the map, has lava on the front and part and a water pit and pre built homes in the back! Looking forward to your next base! Amazing work seriously!

Good job man

[@RaiderLacrosse29]

I have my base in the exact same castle. Your build is awesome! However.....I have only one complaint.....and it's just a personal taste thing. I much prefer building in this castle with the stone structures because you can maintain that natural castle look & feel. Like I said, it's just a personal preference thing. But man this build is sick!! Great job!!

[@CodyKish]

Thanks! And I feel ya. I went with metal because it seemed to break it up nicely between the stone and fit with the theme I wanted.

[@gregsparro607]

Paint the metal a stone toned color or use Adobe and paint it the same color as the stone design

[@anc13ntoblivion64]

I've been using that walled off area outside with the waterfall as a Snow Owl/Gacha sanctuary. I keep the Gachas on wander and go down there from time to time for Gacha crystals.

[@CodyKish]

Not a bad idea.

[@oo_Gurke_oo]

Einfach nur WOW!!! (German) This is amazing!

You can unlock it as an inventory spawn item if you get beta ascension on the island.

Really great castle, thank you very much for showing it to us, I love Viking buildings and buildings from the time of the knights, could you tell us your music selection, which interpreter and the song playing that would be very nice of you

Glad to have ya!

[@MyMrFuck]

The outside is great, maybe a bit too much structures and roleplay theme for me. But the cave is outstanding! Got my outside nearly done but still trying to figure out what to do inside the cave, until now! But it had to be a pain in the ass to build this and get it synchronous?! Where did u start inside the cave for the big building? Where was the first foundation? Keep up the good work!!

[@CodyKish]

I got a little lost in the sauce building the external, haha. And tbh the cave part was a bit messy while i was building it. I had an idea of what i wanted it to be then winged it from there. As far as the first foundation goes, try to center it at the middle edge toward the water on the flat area in the back of the cave. And thanks for the feedback, my friend.
