Hi all,

first of all, this is a great community here! I'm happy to be a member and hope to also be able to give something back, after getting so much inspiration and so many actual buildings from you all at Planet Minecraft.

A few words about me:
I'm what some call a silverback minecrafter or others call a Minecraft dad, being somewhat advanced in the second half of the non-virtual game called "Life". I've been aware of Minecraft for some time because of my older son's having been a fan for ages. But it was only a few months back that I got addicted to it myself. My sons suggested that I play as a form of relaxation and also as something we all enjoy. I took to it like a duck to water and just love building and experimenting with Redstone. Not that I'm a Master Builder or Master Redstone Engineer.

Slowly I build in my world and also sprinkle buildings across the landscape that I got from Planet Minecraft. I also got into texture making, mostly because I hated the bookshelves and wanted to create a library. One thing led to another and now I even have a Youtube channel aimed at other Minecraft dads or mums. Not that I have a big following, but if my videos help or inspire only a few people, it's already worth it.

I'm planning on releasing most of my buildings as schematics here and will give credit to anyone, whose models I use. In my introductory video (warning shameless plug of my channel) I actually missed two as I hadn't noted it down when I downloaded the schematics, so if you know to whom they belong, drop me a line, so I can add it to the video description.

Anyway, happy to be here and hear from you!

Hey, it's fantastic to see some of the dad's getting recognition these days. If you enjoy building, you should check out FamilyCraftDad on YouTube. I think you'd like him because he is a dad also and... He does building in his spare time!

Nevertheless, I'm glad your children motivated you to play because it seems to be helping you and that's something Minecraft is fantastic for! I don't know the exact terminology but it is a great therapeutic device.

Anyways, it's really great to have you on the site. Have a fantastic day!

Hi Verade, sorry for the late reply and thanks for the tip, but do you have a link for FamilyCraftDad? I could not find him on Youtube.

Yes, I do find Minecraft very calming, yet stimulating. In a way very much like my main hobby of creating music.

Welcome to PMC! I get your point in that you want to help contribute after seeing lots of works on the site since I'm someone who's in a similar position, especially when it comes to building, texture making and the like.
I wish you luck on your endeavors in building and texture making!
