[ 3.5 hour Creative Build ] Enchanted Mushroom Village | Freestyle Friday No: 1

Hello everyone my name is bottletop hornet and welcome to the first episode of a new series that i want to start which i haven’t quite got a name for yet but it’s something that i wanted to do to sort of break up my workload as far as making the let’s play series

And it’s also something that will help me improve my skills in minecraft itself so i’ll put the comment up on screen i can’t remember off the top of my head who it was but somebody mentioned the idea of maybe doing more of those builds that i did in my tips and tricks video

Where i went in and just put myself into creative and tried to build in the spot that i spawned using the existing landscape now i think what i’d like to do with this series is maybe every two weeks we’ll see how it goes it will see how easy it is for

Me to actually do i want to pop in to a brand new seed completely random and challenge myself to build wherever i spawn now of course there will be some where it’s obviously not possible to build oh well it could be possible to build but there might be some that are just

Really bad spawns and not a good place to build because nobody would build there but i’m going to try and challenge myself to do the best i can wherever i spawn so for this first episode we’re going to jump straight in create a new world in creative probably

Put it on peaceful so we don’t have to deal with anything and my original idea was a freestyle friday but there’s no guarantee that it will be uploaded on fridays we’ll have to see how it goes but i’m going to call it that for now if

You guys have any ideas in the comments that you could come up with probably after this video i’d be interested to hear what you guys think so we’re going to go creative mode peaceful game rules we’re probably going to turn off updating weather just so that we don’t get any rainstorms

And then just to prove empty seed it’s going to be completely random everything else is as is and let’s see how we go i’m a little bit nervous because i don’t know what we’re gonna get and this is the first time but let’s cross our fingers and hope it’s something interesting

Okay dark oak forest oh okay well that’s about as good a spawn as i could have hoped for for the first episode okay so what i think i’ll do in this series is pop in like this have a look at the world real quickly and run you guys over what my

First impressions are the first idea that pops into my head so let me just spend about 30 seconds to take in my surroundings and i’ll tell you what the initial response to this seat is okay so having a little bit of a fly around

I’ve sort of started to get a bit of an idea in my head and that is maybe a little town a little village tucked away in this dark oak forest using this flatter area here maybe setting up a wall around the outside and then the possibility

Depending on how long it takes of well that’s interesting terrain generation of adding maybe a hole or something up here on top of this cliff so my idea for this series is that i will give myself a timer something around three to four hours

I’ll set that and try and stick to it so that i’m forced to not spend too much time and also it challenges me to see what i can do within that set time limit so i like that idea i like the idea of a couple of small

Houses and stuff surrounded by a bit of wall around this area maybe a little bit of farmland or something we might remove the uh the old portal and then connecting it to some bridges or a little system that comes up here to a town hall i’m not exactly sure on the style

And i think with this series i would like to change my style every single time or at least try to come up with different ideas as i go but with that being said we’re just about ready to jump in now these videos are going to be hopefully a little bit shorter than the

Let’s play series and they’re designed to be both inspiration for you guys and also practice for me so we’re going to jump into a decent sized time-lapse and then i’m going to come in at the end and we’re going to talk about what i’ve made

And uh maybe try and give you guys some insight as to the the workflow and the the way that my ideas continue to evolve so without further ado let’s uh jump into this time lapse see what i can come up with in the next few hours and then yeah hopefully it turns out

Pretty good so i’ll see you on the other side So Do Do So So And welcome back in folks welcome to my little gnomish uh mushroom village it’s actually quite interesting to see how the idea developed as i was building at first i really thought it was going to be more of a medieval style town when i had my first impressions of this place

But as i started to remove things and saw the uh the mushrooms that already existed in this dark oak forest i started to get this idea in my head of putting together a a more grounded part of the uh the nature itself little village so we popped a river through here

And tried to make it so that the houses were a little bit more integrated into the landscape themselves went for a bit of a more diverse path using different bits and pieces tried to uh blend things in as though you know from these angles here

You can see the structures but a lot of it just looks like greenery and nature now this took me about three and a half hours i ended up cutting it short there because it was reaching the point where adding more detail was starting to lose the effect

It wasn’t really achieving much i could obviously go into an insane amount of detail by adding more and more and more and more but at a certain point it becomes the point of diminishing return where it’s not worth it for me to uh to keep investing in this

This world because i’m obviously not going to play on it it’s it is just a uh a practice a a place for me to test my skills and try out new things and we have we have a ridiculous amount of uh fish down there for some reason

So none of these places have interiors none of it’s uh really got much life to it other than the uh structures themselves just being built but the whole idea for me was to just get an idea out of my head and and see what i could make of it without

Spending too much time trying to uh plan or anything like that so we have a little stables here and tried to tie it all together as though it maybe was inhabited at some point or could be inhabited by villagers or something you could bring that in here

What i think i’m gonna do is for these freestyle fridays or whatever we end up landing on as the permanent name i think i’ll probably try and put these words up for download in the description so that you guys can download them if you have java

And pop in and have a bit of an explorer or even use the world for yourself there is cheats on so you could uh switch it over to survival and use this as your starting base and i don’t know i think just having the option there for some people who

Might want to use it or just have a fly around and see what i’ve done in more detail i want that to be an option for you guys now what i’ll quickly do in case you just want to use the seed i’ll just leave that on screen for a

Second that’s the seed there you can pause and use that if you want to otherwise there will be also the seed in the description and yeah hopefully the world download as well all in all though i’m pretty happy with how it turned out for three and a half hours work it

It ended up quite detailed it i definitely brought to life what sprung into my head i really like this these sight lines and these stacked layers through here and and all the uh the greenery definitely a huge fan of that if i was going to spend more time on it i would probably

Try and detail and diversify the banks of this river and uh yeah definitely blend it even further into the landscape and and try and get rid of just these areas where there’s basically all i did was use some bone meal on the grass but since this is my first uh go at this

This new series and i don’t exactly know how i want to uh structure these too much i think we’re going to leave it with just a little fly-through again on the replay mod i might put some shaders on and we’ll just get a nice look at this

Village i will do my best to make sure the description has all the things that are necessary in it and yeah i would love to hear from you guys what you think whether you enjoy this idea and you’d like to see more of this as a way to break up the

The normal content of my let’s play as it’s something that’s a little less stressful for me it’s i can turn my brain off a bit and and don’t have to think too hard about it all or maybe you don’t like it but let me know in the comments

So i’ll leave you with a little bit of a fly through of the the village with some nice shaders on try and get the sunset going or something like that i i would like to thank my patreon supporters for the continued support especially my level 3 patreon tom thank you so much tom
