LAST WEEK'S THEME: STEAMPUNK MANSION

Gold

The great thing about this build challenge is that every couple of challenges there's a build that really inspires me (and hopefully others too!). This is one of them for me personally. What really made me be inspired by this build is the use of the stripped logs. Since they are a newer block, I don't think I've seen them used in this style of build before. But, they certainly fit very very well. I also loved the layout. This was mansion but it still felt chaotic enough to be steampunk, with the sides jutting out the higher you went.

A wonderful build, awesome job!

I really loved this build. It might have even just been the setting. I don't find I'm that used to people building this style in the desert. Usually the normal blocks you expect to see in steampunk don't fit as well with the bright yellow sand. However, here, using a lot of terracotta (I almost forgot it wasn't called hardened clay anymore), helped make it fit really well with the desert. I also really liked the entire shape of it. Elevated from the ground. it already made the build really interesting to look at and the rest of it was just icing on the cake.

Great build!

It took me a long time to figure out why I personally had this build behind the other two and I think I finally figured it out, after watching the video a couple times.

The reason I was confused was because I really liked your entire design. The building was fantastic and as someone who is horrible at building roofs, I was extremely jealous at well yours was built. Even the block choice was normal for a steampunk build.

I think what was wrong with it in my eyes was the granite in the roof. I'm actually one of the few it seems who really likes using granite and diorite in builds so I'm actually not biased because of it. In this build though, I feel the granite had too similar of a colour to the spruce wood. Maybe not even the colour. It might have been simply that it was about as dark as the spruce and blended in a little too well?

As you can see, I do like your build a lot but there is just one thing that makes it slightly behind 1st and 2nd. Sorry if this made no sense to you, but I'm just trying to voice my thoughts. Perhaps the other judges can provide a little more insight.

Good build!

Introduction

It's another repeat week (as in we have done this challenge sometimes in the past...) but as most of us in the northern hemisphere are dealing with the cold winter, we have to be thankful for the farmers around the world (or in our own areas) who can supply us with food over the winter.

So, for this challenge, let's build some farms, which can be situated anywhere in the world to try and get us out of the winter mood!

Happy building!

New Textures

Since we have an official release of the new textures, they are now allowed (along with the old ones). However, if you use the new textures, please specify. I wouldn't want to think you're using a texture pack and disqualify you. I'm not as used to the textures, so I may not recognize them right away.
