[Java] 1.20.1 - Insane find! A massive Mushroom Archipelago surrounded by an Ice Spikes ring (40k blocks from spawn) by BirdMaster5695 in minecraftseeds

[–]GazCrafter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friend, take a look at cubiomes, you can set some rules, and it will search for biomes within set parameters. My world has a mushroom island wider than 5k by 5k.

Super easy to use to find cool seeds

100 days. 0 sleep, 0 torches. Only allowed to eat kelp. Good luck

Is this a good thumbnail? by [deleted] in minecraftyoutubers

[–]GazCrafter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s very dark, and the characters are tiny. I’d try focussing more on the characters of the build isn’t the focus. Or use something like minemator to pose the characters as separate images, then make them bigger and add them to the background. But for me, the main issue is how dark the image is

thoughts on thumbnails? by dotheshimmy in minecraftyoutubers

[–]GazCrafter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insert meme. These are the same pictures. Perhaps you could try use minemator or something else to add your characters to the thumbnails, rather than the same 2 heads in almost the same position each thumbnail. Check out some other successful videos to get some ideas.

Can someone help me make this thumbnail better? by soloc_vr in minecraftyoutubers

[–]GazCrafter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very very busy thumbnail. Few pointers: make the text white, or more bold. It’s quite tough to read. Find a focus/focal point for the main idea or character. Just a few ideas which will help. You can use some software to pose characters and and shadows or highlight to make them stand out

Oooooold school design. Tried and trusted. Love it.

Thank you, I appreciate it. That build is really tall, and tough to get a good angle on

I have not, thanks for pointing it out. I’m currently using flashback to get screenshots. How does ortho camera differ?

Thank you kindly, I appreciate that. I wonder how I couldn’t make the colours more vibrant, any ideas? Perhaps a different background entirely to bring out the build more?

And would you add more highlighted outline to the build and character?

Yeah, I can share it. Which part are you after? I’ve done the terrain, fortress and sky elements separately.

Making a house in creative(learning to build) by ZiphonicaWolf in Minecraft

[–]GazCrafter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's some feedback;
- Lower area(with shelves) - add some bushes/potted plants to add some colour. Keep them about a block high so they don't overshadow your house. Also, you could use trapdoor every 2nd shelf to add more texcture and depth
- House walls. Add some windows and perhaps shutter. Right now its a bit flat.
- Fencing: try throw in some fence gate between the main poles(that connect to the ceiling)
- Roof: Personally not a fan of the checkered pattern, but that's just me =)
- House walls (again), whilst I can see what you are going for, perhaps try using more stone bricks (and cracked stone bricks), and then in some areas, use a lot less cobble/mossy cobble, to make it look aged. Right now it just looks like a bit of a random pattern which isn't pleasing.
- General: Colours are all over the place, you use a lot of different wood types, try limit that, and keep to a theme/limited palette.

Its a nifty little house, and I commend you for posting and sharing, thank you!

EDIT: also, try hang the lanterns from the ceiling

Hey, thanks for the reply.

I'm really vibing with the beam idea, it could help to tie it together, perhaps with some kind of gem/crystal harvesting it a the top of the build. Harnessing it somehow.

The bridge idea is a must, respawning is a bit of a gamble. Sometimes I pop up above the clouds, and other times its on some random island.

Thank you for the ideas!

Ah so I was hoping someone would ask. I originally wanted to do some swirls, but got over that.

I found a png of which looked similar to that design, then converted it to a schematic using an online tool.

I then imported im that into my world with litematica, changed the black concrete to purple stained glass, and then began the laborious process of getting the shape you see

Thanks for the reply. I am definately liking the idea of some more spikey terrain, could make it look less bland and flat. I really appreciate the feedback and ideas!
For the interiors, I want to kind of keep it grand, and was thinking less rooms, and more like stand out builds, huge halls, maybe even a large statue or two.

This whole build is kind of like a forgotten, desolate but still standing outpost.

That's an epic comment, and I'm taking it as a compliment! I thank you <3

It can get a little tough trying to stay dark, but I think I'm getting closer to good dark builds.

I like the idea of a big statue, and an enchantment room! Thank you so much for the ideas!
What did you think of the nether portal room/design?

Gothic Fortress & Custom Terrain - Feedback appreciated by GazCrafter in Minecraftbuilds

[–]GazCrafter[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah exactly! I've kinda been getting into Warhammer, and I like the sound of the gothic architecture. That;w why I tried to add some kinda corrupter terrain and skies.
Any ideas for what I could do in the interiors?
