-Introduction
Here I'm going to walk you through the basics of making a good looking minecraft building. We'll talk about the three elements to building a house:
Lets get started by talking about the outline, and how to make one
-Outline
In my opinion the outline is most important when building in minecraft. It helps you count blocks up down, left and right. It gives you the general shape for your build. An outline consist of three elements, the center point, width, and height. The easiest way to accomplish your outline is to start with the center point. I've used different colors of wool to make the different steps easy to identify. First you need to start by placing a block where the center of your building will be:
This is to determine the center of your building.
Next place blocks going out from the center point:
This will give you the width of your building on all four sides.
Next place a checkered pattern of blocks going upward:
This gives you your height of your building.
This is the basic outline I use for my builds. Its simple, easy to follow, and it really helps when building larger projects. This outline can be used on any scale large, or small. Now that we have the basics out of the way, lets move onto details.
-Detail
Detail is also very important. You dont want just plain walls, you want to add texture and style. My preferd style is stonebrick, with some spruce wood, and a few other items. So, thats what I'll be building with, but feel free to use whatever combination of bricks you like.
