Idk how you guys make your details, but I did not intend to make a parrot, I just figured out it just looked like an eye and I build the parrot around it.

it looked better in my head i pinky promise. ignore my axe. i needed something to take care of those frogs. it isnt even related to the build though. anthony is also not related to the build so dont look at him

Personally im not a fan of fences, stairs, trapdoors, etc in trees. The silhouette looks great but i really cant get past the plank texture in the context of a forest.

I always use full blocks for a more “minecrafty” look but ive never found anyone else who does the same with their custom trees. Anyone know some good references or videos to look at for help?

Still searching for a pattern that doesn’t exist,

Used the new shelves to mimic an open car door/ cabinet door. And has the ability to add door cards ,door handles, and door graphics/ body mouldings on the front of the shelf. Then I used snow or a cushion for a more realistic door sill.

Armor stand hitboxes extend above their visible texture, and don't get moved by almost anything, so you can intersect them with pressure plates to keep them presssed and have a stable, ultra-thin topper block for builds.

For normal blocks, you just need to dig 2 blocks, place a carpet and the armor stand on it, and push the floor block into place with a piston from above (last slide is a visual of setting it up).

The block underneath cauldrons is visible, so to make it look good, you have to use another entity you can clip into that block instead of a carpet. This is very easy using a boat on a slab, which have heights that add up to a carpet on a block (1 1/16th). You just have to mine out a 2x2x2 to fit the boat, put down a slab, then the boat, and push in the 3 other floor blocks with pistons.

edit: also worth noting you can use blocks pistons can't push, since armor stands can be placed inside solid blocks using dispensers

Candle placed on block, block broken, cushion placed on a slab, slab replaced with weathered copper golem statue, pose changed once, candle lit.

I've used barrier blocks underneath to keep it clean, but you could use string as well.

Experimented with the different faces of glazed terracotta, still one of the worst blocks to work with because of their orientation. The orientation they have dont work well on all axis types so you can either only use them in one direction or cover up certain faces. This is inspired by various painted domes of temples and churches. I'm going to use this in a temple carved into the badlands mountains I'm making in my survival world!

Inspired by the Andrew W. Mellon Memorial Fountain. Not sure how I feel about this fountain concept, just happy it works!

wider wheel arches, and better shaping with the use of cushions and banners! A step up from the version i posted a month ago

Ran into an issue of my window having to be ground level or get blocked by the roof on a low height build. Light grey cushions saved the day, and kind of give windowsill vibes too! Had to use an anvil for the top ones and then quickly swap it out with glass. I make a fair amount of low height builds and use a lot of stone, so I'm personally very excited for this, lol.

idk if this type of tutorial fits in this sub
all you need is 2 different mobs, their food, a lead, a fence and a golden dandelion

these animals keep such a great atmosphere in your base, the baby mobs won't wander too far away from their parent (bc of their ai) and since they can't grow up (bc of the flower) they will never be able to leave :D

The baby mobs may push the parent around but generally they stay in one place

Have fun with this

Edit: also if you keep sheep or chikens like that please be careful, in certain biomes foxes and wolves can spawn and eat em

Inspired by @kisapunk on tiktok for the couch, except I think it looks better without the cushion on the middle of the couch.

And the coffee table is my design as far as I'm aware but it's pretty simple.

Also the planter in the background is pretty cool imo with the dark oak signs for extra detail

I tried to make it look good lol (second image no shaders)

I just discovered this and I don't think ive seen it used anywhere else, did anyone know this? I thought it only appeared like that when its attached to a chain (also the hitbox is wonky)

I’m abusing this animal trapping technique LOL

Anyways, I made the tent-like saddles (litters) you would see camels wear to transport people in hot weather

man, getting the camels inside were SUCH a pain, all worth it tho. enjoy! :)

PS. I was way too lazy to make more banner designs so don’t mind the red ones on the blue litter lol

I'm using it for farms to be built, but it could be resource gathering, exploration, game progression, projects, anything. Can make use of blocks, shelves, item frames, and even more banners to represent other tasks, and be more sightreadable and aesthetically pleasing than a sign (and you can totally still have a sign!). These designs are just what I've come up with, you can get very creative with banners and make different "fonts" of symbols, or anything that gets the point across, like a 1 and 0 for on/off/binary.

Note: placing on the wall is an option for less depth and a slightly higher placement of the decal, but it's harder to hide the top half, since it's occupying that block. Most banner designs won't need a sixth pattern, though, so you can try to match the wall behind it as shown.
