    This is a quite old build I made last year, I was going to apply for the Build Team with it but I'm not really motivated to build again since creative closed and I lost my maps so ... I'll show it here instead!
    It's a replica of Notre-Dame de Paris as you saw in the tittle and it took me only two month to make it. It's
    I precise that I did not get the luck to finish it, that's why colours are hurting your eyes, you can see that walls are pretty flat and the cathedral is quite empty.
    Oh and also you cannot see this build anymore because it was on creative, those screenshots are the only remains of it. The creative map is saved, but I can't get my plot back yet.



    Here it is, 150 hours of building time and 50 hours of research time (for photos and plans)

    I'm sorry for the render distance, but my PC is quite weak

    The build is fully RP, every place is accessible without flying
    even the organ
    [​IMG]
    and the roof

    Some pictures of the Inside

    The build is 248 m long, 102 m wide, 179 m high (4 527 984 m²) and is composed of 193 922 cubes ( ~1.8 times bigger than the original)

    Finnaly, some screenshots while building what I think you can call the ''choir'' (I'm not English srry), very complicated with lot of angles and curves.

    That's it, you can see more pictures here v v v v v v

    I took screenshots for all the building steps, if you're interested in all my techniques I used on it.

    You can tell me if you think I could be useful to the Building Team, I'm not very good at terraforming and organics, but if I can give my opinion on the Brawl Build Team recruitment, I think the purpose of a team is to have specified people together, so they can build better. People have to be complementary to each other, not to be able to build alone like there was no team. Beeing member of a build team is not a trophy.

    Well, thank you for taking the time to read everything!

    Amazing build! I have been in Notre-Dame once, it's a fine example of Gothic architecture. Great job.

    Thank you for your comment! If you're talking about the ceiling, the vaults (or archs, idk) are just like that in the original, they are in two curved segment, not in circle, as you can see here

    important update: you can now visit it on build with /map 371016 and then /tp [your name] 13271 -13095 , keep in mind that this is not finished.
    There are dedications on the columns in the central nave.
    It's normal if you see some random signs hidden, I put these when I was bored ...

    have fun visiting it!

    edit: it seems like there is a light glitch, the interior looks more darker.
