Hey everyone. I'm gonna make a thread about everything you need to know , to improve your building skills. I wanted to share my tips with you guys <3


THEME
So the first thing for you build that you want to do is pick up a theme.
It can be anything you want , Nordic , medieval , castle , shop , anything.
If you want your build to be popular , be sure to think of something new ,
something that has never been seen before.For example ,
stone brick gates/Walls/forts are OVER SEEN .
Unless you can design it differently than other players did it's good ,
otherwise I don't suggest building it.
an example of a Nordic house.

LAYOUT
For your builds you want to have a good scheme , a plan. The worst
you can do is make a square.Never make a square building. You
wanna try to do different lines , perhaps something that's not
symmetrical . You can figure out the way you want it to look.
So , at the end , try to be different again. The more complicated
your scheme looks, the better results you will get.

NORDIC HOUSE PLAN
This plan will be for the Nordic house. In this picture I
placed a few wooden blocks as beginnings of pillars and
stone bricks for walls.


WALLS
Of course , your build should have walls. You can mess around
with them as much as you want! There are SOO many options
to build a wall. Height? well , any height is good if it fits the
theme. The most common once are usually 3 - 5 blocks,
that doesn't mean you can't make your walls 20 blocks up
in the air. You can. Just make sure you keep them interesting
by adding details and depth to them.
1.sketching

Here we have a basic wall lining. 4 blocks high and 5 ( 7 if pillars counted) wide. Let's
make these walls shine.
2.filling

I have added stone bricks and made the top pillar a bit curvy , just because it will look
better.
3.detailing

In this step I added stone cobblestone as a support for wooden pillars. I added a window
and some stone brick stairs.
4.final touch

New block variations , stone bricks look just too plain. I mixed them up with some stone and
cracked stone bricks.

This is a regular 1 block wide wall . It isn't a straight wall so it might be a bit harder.
detailing it
1.overview

2.resizing

I changed the height , just because it looks better this way. It kinda looks more Nordic
than it did before.
3.filling

4.detailing and finishing
Wool is used a lot and kinda boring. Why not to try something new? In this example I used quartz. Let's see how will it look.

DEPTH , DEPTH , ALL THE WAY
What's depth? Well , depth is a MUST NEED in building. It's
basically layers in your walls.
You don't want your wall to have only 1 layer , it's not
considered depth.
Best looking ones are about 4-5 blocks deep. BUT , if you are
making a survival house or a small project don't go for 5 layers
of depth , it will look weird , use around 2-3 layers perhaps.In
depth you don't have to go in the walls , you can build out of
them as well , it will still be depth. Anything , from fences , walls
, blocks to slabs and stairs is good.Try to make new combinations!
It will look really good and you will be happy with your build

COLOR PALETTE
Ahh.. This is really
, really fun. You make your own combinations of colors to use them
in a build!Before you start building , make your palette as a guide.
Good palette isn't wool , black wool and green wool.For a good
palette you want to have blocks that have same tones of color.
It's not important what block is it. It's not important if you use
wool with obsidian as long as it looks good! Same for any other
block. Here are some examples of good looking palettes:
1)purple stained clay , obsidian , black wool , stone bricks or dark
oak slabs and stairs ( depends on what you prefer) , and maybe
some quartz as a contrast
2)stone/stone brick slab, stained clay (light colors), brick stairs,
normal clay
3)Jungle slabs/blocks/stairs , Granite , oak slabs and hardened clay.
4) * I'll add more palettes soon. *

ROOFS
For roofs , just like with rest of the stuff , anything that fits the
previous built thing. Although you can be creative on this one ,
I still suggest you don't make flat one or symmetrical one.
Maybe you can go with Nordic type of roof that goes like
egg shape down than up again.For roofs use a palette that fits the best .
1.sketching

2.Dragon head and upgrading the sketch

3.slowly filling

4.finishing


MORE COMING SOON
Don't hate me but that's it for now. I have no time to write anything
else.
I'll give you guys a lot of updates on this thread.
Btw please don't hate me if I made any grammar mistakes <3


please note that these are just build examples. You can go as big , as detailed as you want

Thanks for reading! :) hope you have a good day. - Vancient

This kinda looks like a flat text :/ Didn't want it to be that way. Sorry.
I'll add pictures soon!
Tell me what you like about the thread and what not.
Post me some of your builds so we can discuss how to improve them <3
If you like the thread please support .
Thanks! Cheers!

Hey Vancient! :D

Nice to see that you want to help people with improving their building skills! However, these kind of threads doesn't belong in the Community Corner. A staff member will probably move this thread to the 'Anything Minecraft' or to the 'Community Guides' section.

Have a great day! <3

It'd probably be better if you alerted every single mod with the report button, than just tag two.

As for the guide, eh, in comparison to some of the most significant map builders in the community, this is a tad bland. I'd find this great for a novice or intermediate-levelled builder (which is a fair size of the community), which is great, but not too much room for people who are already familiar with all this to improve significantly. It's a great guide, but for those who are wanting to learn.

Cool thread, but a square-ish building isn't too bad IMO. They also look very good, sometimes better than the non-square ones.

Argh...I'm not trying to hate you or be rude , but I disagree . They look to simple and are used a lot. I , as a builder love seeing new things. Thanks for commenting tho <3

Your opinion mate ;) <3 Anyways of course different looking shapes are better, but square houses are just fine.

Good! You should mention "hot" and "cold" colors on blocks so players aren't putting redstone blocks or acacia wood in a snow map.
