Pics from today at a very quiet UO

Is it just me or is every one of Ash's pictures upside down? I noticed it on the Transformers thread as well.

So I'm way behind on all of the recent announcements/rumors in regards to the Wizarding World expansion. But a bunch of people on PS3 Home's Pottermore were talking about how it's opening in summer 2014. Is there even a sliver of truth to that rumor?

Thanks for the pics, Ash! :thumbs:

Not just you. I just turned my laptop upside down

So, we have a new roof line forming on that mysterious 66C location. I still cannot decipher what the heck that is. I can't recall any buildings with a bunch of pointed roof sections all together :shrug:

(as we sit here dumb as clams wondering what is going between the theater and station)

I read on Snitchseeker that next to the Wyndham Theatre will be Leicester Square (Underground) Station.

Great job Sabi and Gambit! :thumbs:

 

[PourJudgment]

Awesome work on the "photoshops"

 

[Gambit]

If we think Lester Square Station might be a facade then the other ones SHOULD be the Leaky Cauldron. So possibly something like this...

(Please excuse the crappy photoshop job)

 

[ReelJustice]

Gambit, you're awesome! :rep:

No need to apologize, it looks great for what it is!!!

I put in the original from HTF so it is easy to compare to the frame work.

 

[Ash]

Wow, really? How strange..... They're the right way up to me...

Is there something I can do to fix this? They're hosted by tinypic .... Could it be that?

This is really awesome and helps to establish what the area will look like when completed. Awesome work! Thanks!! :rep:

 

[Felipe]

Love the extra details you put in! Awesome job, Gambit! Great visual! :thumbs:

If it looks as good as that, it's going to blow Phase 1 out of the water just for that.

Great rendition, Gambit! That looks excellent....one can only hope it looks as nice as that.

Leaky Cauldron....

What happened to us entering through it to get into Diagon?

What I'm gonna say is a cop-out, but anyways, here I go
Muggles don't see how these places really look to those in the wizarding world, due to enchantments and protections put on said places so that the Muggles will walk right by them, not notice anything special or interesting, and keep on going on their merry way. This way witches and wizards keep their world in secret. So, that could be a reasoning *cough*excuse*cough* to put whatever they want in the London front :shrug:

 

[USO92]

hmmm so when we walk under the London facade we will then end up in the Cauldron?

Im lost haha

When we go through the main entrance, we will be in the streets of Diagon Alley, and Leaky will be to our left.

@OrlandoInformer: Looks like a lot of work has been done recently on the far end of the [HASHTAG]#HarryPotter[/HASHTAG] @UniversalORL expansion

@OrlandoInformer: It's getting tougher and tougher to see the Gringotts Bank entrance [HASHTAG]#HarryPotter[/HASHTAG] @UniversalORL
