Thanks for the kind words <3

Thank you!

 

Thank you!

 

Appreciate the honesty. What do you think I can do to improve?

 

I admit terraforming is my passion. x3 I absolutely understand where you're coming from, and I am better at land than large-scale buildings, but no one's perfect out of the gate c: The more opportunities I get to build, the more I can practice my weak spots, which is exactly why I'm looking to rank up.

Do you have specific suggestions, or is it just a general improvement thing?

 

Got any examples of your work? I'd love to see what you do c:

To be completely honest I've never understood why people "have to" be good at buildings to do these sorts of things (had trouble with applications on a different server over a year ago)... if so-and-so gets a rank because of buildings, but can't terraform, why can't I get it for the reverse xD
Rank aside it's absolutely valid criticism, and every builder should have multiple tools in their box, but it's always bothered me that buildings tend to be the be-all-end-all of requirements. Ah well, no use griping lol |D

 

The stained glass in the castle ceiling is clever!

I won't take it personally ;D It is kinda inaccurate though. Put it this way, I managed to make something out of a completely flat land that you think is equal to default minecraft. ;D Or, in many cases, grander. It involves a pretty detailed artistic knowledge of how actual terrain generates, so that I can imitate its laws enough that it looks "natural" to you, as well as extensive WorldEdit knowledge to actually bring the terrain to life so I don't have to place every block by hand. Full-scale builds by me (ranging from 400 blocks square up to 1000 blocks square) can take anywhere from 2-6 months and involve painstaking hours going back over WorldEdit'd work with a fine-tooth comb to fix anywhere I've "broken" the laws. Plus, of course, there's an epic side of creativity to go with it. Minecraft doesn't generate volcanoes, but I made something "realistic" enough that you recognized it instantly - that involves a lot of careful planning.

Bottom line is this; as much effort as you put into building, say, a castle? I have to build the land that castle stands on, then the castle after it. So no, my castle may not be as grand as yours, but mine comes with real estate ;D

Don't take it the wrong way, I am insanely jealous of people like... Keralis, or the Gazamo team, who throw together these amazing buildings, and I seriously wish I could do that as easily, but my strength lies in terrain, so as much as I try to practice new things I still like playing with old tools ;D
