Pictures from the November VGHVI Minecraft session:
First, the usual wandering around deciding what I want to do next.
Looking at my mountain and Dan’s castle.
Dan is building some stairs down to the ground.
I think I’ll do something inside the mountain next.
Here’s the other side of the pool.
And a view of the waterfall and stairs, just for context.
I’d initially been thinking that I’d put some shops in this area, and I still might do that for part of the area, but for the next bit I decided to be inspired by the water and dirt and make the area around the water feel a little bit like a beach.
Putting some sand near the water.
Sand next to the water on the other side, too; what do I want to do about the stone?
Let’s put in some dirt and tall grass. (Which can’t grow in sand, it turns out.)
Here’s a top down view of the whole pool area.
And here’s how the water, sand, and stairs fit together.
So that’s me. Meanwhile, Dan was building a wide set of stairs down to a plaza; I’ll have to talk to him next time about how he wants to integrate that with my mountain.
The stairs have landed!
The builder gazes up at his work.
Looking down the stairs.
How do we want to relate the platform at the base to the nearby construction?
Miranda was chipping away at her buried tomb:
A glowing box in the water.
Turtles and fish swim above the box.
One of the adjacent rooms is now white instead of gold.
A view of the white pedestal from above.
And, finally, I caught Pat when he had finished the shell of a building but was working on finishing it.
The outside of the building.
Nothing yet inside.
Adding some lights certainly helps.
Adding some grass to the back balcony.
Grass and sunset.
Furnishing the interior.
