FarmVille Pic of the Day: Marsal's Locomotive Fortress

Today's FamVille Pic of the Day departs from the Lady Gaga themed farms. Instead of highlighting colorful creativity, this week's featured farm focuses on an artist's technical ability. FarmVille Forum member, Marsal, has created a complex farm full of depth and detail. Bridges, staircases, walls, and tunnels cover the fortress, giving the flat farm a 3D feel.

Though Marsal wasn't able to comment, I'm sure this project took well over 30 hours to complete. Not only did Marsal create a farm design with awesome illusions (just look at that staircase!) and item placement, but even threw in small touches such as a river and a small hedge maze. The trains are also a nice touch, filling the fortress with the feeling of a bustling, living world.

Be sure to check out the close up pictures below to really spot the nuances of Marsal's creation.

FarmVille Pic of the Day: Lynn Edwards' fantastic farm art

After the last insane farm design, this FarmVille Pic of the Day is brought to you by dedicated farm designer, Lynn Edwards. It should be obvious why Lynn Edwards' farm design attracted our attention. The pattern in the middle is simply splendid. The featured farm's arrangement is created with all kinds of crops, trees, and items, creating a fantastic effect. If there is anyone who can successfully name all the items used to create this pattern, they would definitely be awarded some kudos.

However, aside from the design in the middle, the rest of the farm is a bit lacking. This submission was entered to a FarmVille Forums contest, and despite how nice it is, it failed to win the top prize. Lynn Edwards, if you're out there, please get rid of the farm plots! Instead of having an ugly brown border around your beautiful farm, extend the pattern all the way out to the edges. Fix that, and you'll be a contender for the top prize for sure. This is, without a doubt, a farm with potential. Keep up the good work Lynn Edwards.

What do you think of Lynn Edwards' neat farm design?

FarmVille Pic of the Day: Have fun getting lost in Aliciafay03's farm maze

Don't let the look of this farm fool you. Because the first thing someone would notice about Aliciafay03's FarmVille farm is that she's got "FARM VILLE" spelled out in an outline of red, orange, and blue hay bales, which I know isn't a big whoop. Hay bales as a design element have gotten pretty stale in the landscaping community. Bales are good for spelling out visual shout-outs, portraits, and the occasional fun art (care for a whopper?), but there's rarely any impressive ones anymore. But look closer at Aliciafay03's farm, and you'll realize that it's an interactive maze.

Originally designed to be a cornfield maze, Aliciafay03 was eager to debut her farm for Zynga's official Farm of the Week contest, so she released her entry before the corn had a chance to grow. This is probably better, cause a cornfield would've obscured all the clever lettering. What we know about hay bales is that there's a cheat for players to harvest crops faster by trapping your FarmVille farming avatar in hay bales -- now here's where the interactive part comes in -- so if you click one end of this farm, your avatar can't go anywhere but to run through the maze!
