It's been a long while since my original Post and progress has been really slow (mostly due to me playing other games in the meantime), but I have the first section of it basically done. I just want suggestions on what to do to furnish the main platform more and the subsequent platforms.

Stained Glass Help

1 Upvotes

I'm looking to create a church/cathedral style building in my world in the midst of my pale/dark oak custom forest I'm building. I'm trying to come up with an idea and understanding of how stained glass gradients work. I'm contemplating an idea of having the color scheme of the building be a dark grey/black pallette using blackstone and deepslate, mixed with diorite and calcite for pops of white color. For my windows I'm trying to determine if I want a light grey and red gradient, or blue and white gradient.

My primary issue however is that to try and properly get this to look good, do I space the glass with empty air between layers of glass, or stack it directly against each other? And in addition to that, should panes or just straight glass blocks be used? Can anyone provide some help or guidance?

I'm playing modded Minecraft it's a Zombie Apocalypse and I'm searching for ideas on what to build here, anyone got any ideas?

(Playing Survival)

While I love decorative stuff, I do appreciate something useful like farms too, I putted some trees but purely to farm for now, I have other island on the side where I think I'll do the trees farm, so I have no idea what will be here!

Thank you !

Hi, I'm trying to create a city or neighborhood inspired by Chicago. Since I can't make every building the same and I don't live in Chicago, I need advice or inspiration for other building designs. Any Minecraft builds or photographs would be a huge help, thanks! ((I'm leaving an image of a house that i have already built)

Edit: Im Using Double Slabs to put different slabs one upon another and vertical slabs.

Textured red roof

I was trying to create a textured red roof for my mangrove-plank build. I tried using crimson nether bricks at the edges, transitioning into netherrack and then stripped mangrove logs, but I didn't really like how it turned out.

How do you guys make textured red roofs, and which blocks do you use? I'm almost at the point of giving up and switching to teal blocks instead.

What to do with hill near my castle?

Hello, I have this large hill next to my castle and i dont know what to do with it. Any ideas are welcome!

I made the most optimal roof slope for a cushion roof. These are the blocks you need:

0 Upvotes

Notes:

Its 1 pixel higher for each level so TECHNICALLY you can make a longer slope.

For the straw bed you need to place one cushion on the lower pixel and the other one on the pillow.

For the first lantern you need to place it on the lower surface of the lantern. For the second one just place it on the top pixel.

Hope this will be helpful for people who want to make LOOOOONG roofs :) .

I know tutorials are pretty frowned upon but I can’t find alternate angles of this exact photo so im kinda relying on seeing if there’s a video format

I used both polished and regular andesite and diorite, as well as smooth stone.

Picture three was it before the attempted texturing, just both types of diorite.
