Hi,
New project here: the WATERMILL ! 
Let’s start blocking some basic shape…
Any idea? Feel free to share your toughts!

A nice beginning. Small point: unless this is meant to be an undershot wheel, the bucket planks would be tilted upwards as seen from the front of the wheel, to form a bucket in which to dump and then discard the water. Go ahead and model the flume or the river.

Thank you sundialsvc4.
Yes, probably it will be an undershot wheel.
The texturing of both the roof and the walls and the door are all quite believable. Keep it up.

I’d recommend putting a support of some sort on the other side of the wheel. Not all have one, but most do.
Looks pretty cool!

Thank you guys!
I don’t know… I’ve seen a lot of references and I feel I prefer without the support but… we will see, I’ll consider it.
Many thanks!!

Ok, let’s start putting the watermill in the environment!
What else should I put into the scene?
Some trees? A small bridge? What else?

Usually water mills (and other mills) exist for a purpose. Is it there for electricity or grinding? In either case you need a service road and power lines if it’s built for electricity.

You are right! Thank you!
I think it’d be kinda cool with a stone bridge that goes across the river.

Added trees, a small wooden bridge, a bench, a table… and worked a bit on the terrain.
I feel I need something in the meadow on the right…

Looks much better!
I think it could use some rocks along the river’s edge and maybe some flowers or bushes.

Nice work. I saw this after starting on my own water mill project. And I’m looking to make a bridge as well - just seems to fit the scene.
