Hello all :) I felt like giving a little behind the scenes of how I work on my builds.
I will first go down through my list, and pick out the builds I would like to do, then I will narrow them down to one. The one I pick to do will be moved to the top of my bookmarks bar. As I have shown here.
Next step will be to pick out my reference images. I will usually try to find pictures of every side of the build. Front, back, left, right, rear.
Next step. I will open Minecraft, and using the Reference images I will pick out the blocks I think I will need. After I have everything I need I will start on the Cab of the machine.
After completing the tractor. I will then begin work on the scraper.
And there you have it. My quick summary of my building process, and how my builds go from start to finish.
Here is the finished un-rendererd build
And then finally rendered.
I know this is kind of messy, but Its my first ever blog lol.
- First order of business is picking out a build from my "To Build List"

Next step. I will open Minecraft, and using the Reference images I will pick out the blocks I think I will need. After I have everything I need I will start on the Cab of the machine.
The Cab
Here I will start with the basic cab. Inside the glass is the stair, and grindstone I have used to imitate the seat, and head rest. The dropper on the bottom is to try to look like the dashboard.
I will then put the roof on the cab, and add the mirrors
Next up is detailing the cab. And using banners to get the look of the framing of the door and windows.

Working on the hood
Next up I will start work on the front end by outlining the hood
Next up I will start getting the shape of the hood, and adding the banner grille
I was a little stumped with what do next. So I would come back to that later, and I went around back to work on the Exhaust, and what I assume is the cab air filter/AC

Working on Hood continued
With the top of the hood complete. I start shaping the underside of the machine
While the hood is still open. I will put a simple looking engine inside. I know most never see it, but I like to have the little added detail.

Fenders, and tracks
Closing up the hood. I will begin adding the fenders. I must admit. It took me a long time to figure out the fenders lol
Adding detail
Putting on the Air Filter for the engine, just above the fender
Next up I will add the Headlights. Using my little trick I use for most truck headlights. I will use Worldedit to select just one half of a bed, and then paste them onto the fenders. It is a little bit tricky tho. As a half bed is not supposed to exist, and if any block is changed nearby the while pop off lol
Its starting to take shape now. I add the tracks under the cab, and use worldedit to lower the machine to the ground.

Building the rest of the machine
Placing the machine on the ground. I will roughly place the rear tracks where I think they should be
Adding steps and railing
Linking the two halves together with the articulated part, and adding detail
I will then place the rear fenders of the tracks using a combo of stairs
Adding rear detail
The finished tractor awaiting on its scraper

After completing the tractor. I will then begin work on the scraper.
Working on the scraper
I will start off on the scraper by referencing the image of the machine with the scraper, and beginning work on the hitch of the scraper
Filling in some detail in the middle. I will then place the rear wheels where I think they should go.
Outlining the sides.
Adding some extra detail up front such as the hydraulics, and the gate.
I will then start filling in the sides of the scraper, adding detail as I go.
Adding in the rear of the scraper, completing the basic scraper bowl.
Adding details of the rear wheels.
Some little detailing on the sides.
And then finally the rear bumper of the scraper.
