I seem to like building large tall bases usually with some mathematical geometry in them. This one is more 3D art than mathematical, and was created from a voxelizion of a 3D printer file. Once loaded into minecraft I used worldedit slabify it (move it up half a block so all the top and bottom surfaces are slabs, that way I do not need to light it up the outside to mob proof it, a sphere was then added with embedded lights (as those blocks do not have 'slab' variants) to prevent mob spawns.

Once the basic object was prepared in creative, survival build plans were extracted, and it was built in survival, one layer at a time from sea level to around 200 blocks. Maybe next time I'll build something even bigger!

After being built, villagers and various farms, including a large mob farm were build inside the two hands, while the sphere contains my main base and large storage array and crafting, and enchantment areas. The ground floor contains an economy shop where I sell goods of value to other players at reasonable prices. The storage sphere is huge, wth a large item sorter, for items coming from the farms below.



Later I added sculptures around the base to make it meore interesting. Sea Monsters attacking from below, and two chinese dragons facing off above. There will probbaly be more added as time gos on. The sculptures were not my designs and I claim no ownership of them, but they were selected to fit the build.


It was build on the Element Animation Server, and if you visit the server you can just walk over spawn island and see it on the other side.
