I have been seeing a lot of very nice builds on the Forum lately and wanted to share my creations.
My floating islands were built using 100% survival mode with harvested materials.
If you would like to view a full tour of the Island watch the video at
A few things you may notice in the images.
The texture pack started out as default and changed to Misa
The shape and size of the lower island is different in the picture vs the video
The Zeppelin is in a different location than originally built
After I built the Windmill I used WorldEdit to move the Zepplin from one location to another. With the release of 1.2 we moved to a new world which caused the Shape/Size of the lower island to change.

2) Nice builds
I'm not gonna lie, that road/tunnel has one of the best designs I've seen for an underground tunnel. Kudos
Thanks, 1.2 really brought a lot of options with upside down stairs and slabs to make realistic arches.
Far better than I would ever do myself
Could you post a Schematic or a world download?
(If its fine with you)
the purple is from the texture pack. misa.
I appricate the interest but at this time I am not willing to part with my creations.
You are correct Taelaronic, the Texture pack Misa was used in this build which adds new lighting among other things.
If any of you are intested in the texture pack you can get the full details at: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/69354-64x124-misas-realistic-texture-pack-updated-22mar2012/#DOWNLOAD
I look forward to seeing how far this inspiration takes you.
