Hey guys! JrNetwork is buzzing with activity. Today we have started our third world wonder. After huge success with the Pyramid of Giza and the Lighthouse of Alexandria, we have decided to start our server's biggest project ever. A 1:1 scale of the Great Wall of China. One of the most distinguishing marks in the ancient world. We will be placing approximately 1.4 million blocks to fully complete this great wall. My friends and I have been only working for a couple hours and we are having a lot of fun recreating the wall around all of this servers manmade structures. If you would like to join our server let me tell you a little bit about it. We have fun working as a team and we don't really have any problems with griefers. There are a few that will attempt to but they get the ban hammer immediately. Our server is currently #4 out of all survival servers. We will be accepting any help that would like to join us on the rest of our journey to re-create all these marvelous structures. Please check us out at apply.jrnetwork.net Hope to see ya'll soon!!!!!
CreditPretty much everyone on JRnetwork is helping on this one! Thanx Guys!

There are 2 different sections of the wall. Part A and part B. Also I could not get the whole wall into 15 pictures so I needed a second post

After seeing several sections of the Great Wall i noticed a few flaws that may help you. 1) your wall is twice the needed height to make it to scale (if thats what your aiming for) 2) its also made by brick or packed earth and the default sandstone texture would be best suited for color and pattern. 3) the 2x2 blocks u have on top should be 1.5 x 1 tall would be more accurate, they were used for archers to hide behind while under attack.

96% of the individual walls was made with rammed earth (the rest was made with baked clay bricks) and your diagram is missing a few thousand walls that are currently classed as part of the "great wall of china" that doesn't really apply to your project, just a bit of trivia for you.
