I used to feel guilty about using MCEdit until I realized I could do the very same things much faster with it. Now I use it all the time. On this particular build though, I stuck with the more conventional method (block by block) because of all the detail, but with other builds, particularly skyscrapers, I have now qualms about "cheating" with editors. In fact, I kind of have to use MCEdit whenever I can if I ever expect to get my city done in any reasonable amount of time.

Danke. Und herzlichen Gluckwunsch zu Ihrem Debut auf Planet Minecraft!

I improvised in some places, mostly on the inside. I tried to follow along with the actual house design whenever I could without worrying too much about accuracy.
