for some 3 months I`ve been building a kingdom then I decided, before I finish it, to build a castle to it, a 200x100 castle, some 200 height. (I build everything block by lock, no mods, at creative)
still working on it and I believe I still need some 2 months to build but, here it is , not posting everything inside, also not posting the glass/water dome from inside but you can go everywhere inside and outside of the castle, just a bit safe for the most dangerous (higher) place.
it is "just" the base of the castle (and some screenshots from before I started building the castle over the base) but, well, take a look.
will also add some squares, trees and small buildings around the castle, over the base, but havent decided anything yet.
well, as I already posted pics of the kingdom (also from the base) at other topics, I will try to avoid reposting everything here but, when castle is done I will get back to the kindgom and will post it at the forum too .
still thinking to add and/or change stuff there, and that still some 50% of internal area to build, then I will start the 150meters height tower-like structure
corridors, the small Nether Temple (still dont like it yet I built and hope that one day I get any better idea for that), another soldiers room and a "restaurant" inside castle (by the side of the temple, not Nether Temple, also inside castle)
started "the tower" of the castle and, while I was kind of bored and trying to have ideas I built some plantations, a clock tower (sure, not redstone build, show only hour and mid day/mid night and, yes, I think I should have made it larger and bigger but, for the first try on a clock tower I will keep it) and a fountain with on/off restone control.
as I just made the tower "almost" to the top, this week I will be posting a map with Nithou Kingdom (this topic is related to the Nithou Castle and some parts of the kingdom I build around the castle) and the other kingdoms also with some details at the second image.
but with some time I will start a topic to place pictures of all the kingdoms (just one image of each place) with the completed map.
well, sure . . not a usual castle (and, anyway, I am using any idea that come to my mind when I am creating based on the previous layouts I already created or planned so, I will try to make it look like a castle as much as I can but, not a conventional castle, but to be huge, strong, with many big rooms, areas to help protecting the castle and to make access as hard as possible, also making the path to the king chamber a long and "tiresome" way up the castle going through lots of corridors, some towers, rooms, traps and guards/soldiers chambers protecting the areas of the castle, where soldiers and royal guards live, sleep and eat, and keep their payment, equipments, food and treasures. Also with small temples, some ballrooms, library and prison . . . will try to think of more stuff to add inside the castle).
200x100x40 (castle base) and (180)x85x(150) (castle over the base . . will be 150 height over the base, total will reach height 250, max minecraft height without any mod, it also isnt 180 yet because the back of the castle is just a mark with sandstone over the castle base but the design is there and I just have to get more ideas for that part of the castle, that will be more like a huge tower with towers on the side and a set of 7 huge arc pillars holding it over the castle base)
NICE to see some original looking design! Usually when people show off cities or castles, while they can be nice indeed to look at, they usually seem like variations on the same style. This looks way more unique and it looks cool and well built, I love the assymetry (if you know ow to break it without making it look like a mistake, then please do break it!) and there seems like their could be a cool story behind this as well.
Please post your progress, looking forward to seeing more of it! Good work!
thnks, Im glad that u like it that much
and, about the assymetry, individual parts are built with symetry and even some large parts of the castle are built with symetry, but the overall is meant to be built with assymetry and unique parts so, there is symetry at some areas repeating some structures of the building and these structures are, usually, symetrical, but walking through it is assymetrical and that is how it have to look like, according to how I wanted to build.
and, now that I noticed . . .
I created the topic at
Minecraft Forum
→ Game Modes
→ Minecraft Creative
but it have been moved to
Minecraft Forum
→ Show Your Creation
→ Screenshots
nothing against but, would like to know if, from now on, we have to post builds here instead of posting at Minecraft Creative . . . because, lol, it is being built at creative without any mods.
still thinking to add and/or change stuff there, and that still some 50% of internal area to build, then I will start the 150meters height tower-like structure
Im sorry for not posting anything the last 7 days but I did only a couple of corridors, a temple Im still not happy with, a "restaurant" and another soldiers room (all inside castle) and a wharehouse where I will start creating plantations around.
not with many ideas but I will try to post all I did tomorrow or as soon as possible (well, sure, I spent a time playing survival on a new map for the fun of mining and finding iron, coal, diamond, redstone, etc . . . the fun of doing it with a hard work like I used to some 6 or 8 months ago )
