I've improved a little, when I started in Alpha v1.1_2.01 up until Beta I built everything in cobblestone, post-Beta I started using log trims on interior walls trying different materials like sand and snow blocks, I don't go over-board with detail I think unless it's a massive build too much can look cluttered,

From my main world (2010 - present):

Alpha front entrance:




Beta:



2012:



2013 (October):



2014 (October):



2015 this summer:



That wooden hut by the birch tree dead center has been reverted back to nature, the church was re-built from scratch this year, the old cobble bridge knocked down finally and replaced as was an old wooden platform onto the sea, now a water gazebo and the wheat farm is now circular.

I used to build everything rectangular to start with, these days I'm circle obsessed and I love to use dyed hardened clay. The bedroom in this world and it's outside brick walls (Shown in last picture) will be getting a make-over. In the center of the picture the nether brick roofs have gone in favor of stone-brick, no vines and the brick in the bay window has gone too.



This is but one world however. I try and make use of upside down stairs, detail where possible, my old cobble fort in this world - called Mount DOOOooom is getting a makeover mixing materials to break u the cobble. (Started in beta),

I certainly like to make use of new materials whether it be modern wood, clay, new stone types, hardened clay and I refer stained glass over regular. I'm always striving to try and "Do better".

I haven't improved too much, but I went from this



to this


(Yes I know the sails are flat, I'd fix it if I still had the map)

Well, the first thing I built in MineCraft was a house about 3 blocks wide, and now I'm actually building stuff like this: http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/emerald-town/
(Some of the pictures are outdated)
Awesome builds!

I would say a lot since I started building and a lot less while I'm at it because I couldn't build a house in MC when I first started but I was great at Terraforming the environment around me but now its the other way around

aand my current best completed build, in terms of detailing skill. The render isn't as good, but more will be coming.
