Antlerboy – Minecraft Tutorial: How to Build a Castle Block by Block – Part 3 – Throne Room

All right ladies and gentlemen of the internet it’s finally time to continue building the castle and in today’s episode i want to show you guys how to build this part right here which is supposed to be the throne room and just in general part of the keep so we’re gonna

Hop back into the super flat world and in this episode we’re gonna get this section finished and that was my face so i will see you guys right over in that world all right here we are in the first episode we built the entire gatehouse and in the second one

We built this tower and a lot of the walls and so how we’re gonna start this video is we’re gonna continue on building the wall here the one that connects up diagonally all the way over to where we’re gonna build the throne room back here

And so to do this we’re gonna come right here to this corner of the tower the same one that has the mini tower sticking out of it right there and we’re gonna go one two and on the third block we’re gonna bring this up seven blocks now we’re gonna do the same thing

We did over here when we built the diagonal part of the wall except we’re gonna start with a section that’s three wide so bring this out two more blocks and we’re gonna bring these up the full seven as well over here now that we have our three by seven block

Wide wall like this we’re gonna come over on a diagonal and we’re gonna do this for 16 blocks one two three four five six seven eight nine 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 i feel like a ballet instructor or something but now that we got our 16

Blocks just like that we’re gonna go to our wall here we’re gonna go one two three and on the fourth block so that we’ve got a three block space we’re also going to bring this up seven blocks but from here we only do the one instead of three and we gotta start

Going diagonally like this just so that we got two blocks of space diagonally in between like this and we’re gonna continue on going in fact we’re gonna do exactly what we did over here as you guys know we’re gonna put a giant tower right here so we can kind of just

Cut off the wall we can do the same thing over here since we’re going to have the building facing this way we can just match this up with that the next step is just going to be bringing all these blocks up to seven once we’ve got our diagonal wall like

This with the three there over at the end you can actually start filling this in with whatever you want to use as the floor for now since we’re not doing the interior decoration we can just fill this in with andesite but if you want to save some

Materials you don’t even have to fill this in yet and i mean if you’re doing this in survival definitely make sure to light this up down here i don’t really care about it right now since i’m in peaceful mode but i went around and torched the place up

A lot in survival mode we’re now going to focus more on the details and we only really have to do it here on the outside since the inside is going to have the staircase going up so let’s get some blocks first off we’re just going to add these decorations like

This which are just stone brick polished andesite stone brick and then a polished andesite stair and then what we want to do is add these pillars first without the stairs on every other block just like this and once we got this we can start over at the beginning and we’re just

Going to alternate these stairs back and forth like so now to start decorating this we want to place stone brick blocks like this every other block but this is pretty much the exact same process as over there on that side so i’m gonna go over what we’re

Gonna do for these three blocks and then the rest is just gonna be the same as over here one thing we will do on the other side is make sure that these stone bricks are on the same side though so if this one’s over here make sure you go diagonally and place it

In the right spot and then alternate every other one because otherwise like i said before with that wall over there it’s going to get very wonky if you do this wrong you then want to go ahead and place andesite stairs underneath like this you want to place your smooth stone slab

Like so and then your chiseled stone bricks with a polished andesite slab a lot of different blocks right here and this you can do pretty much all the way down the line just make sure you place your chisel blocks and all of these blocks right here and

It’s a little bit annoying to place these uh regular polished andesite slabs yeah it’s kind of annoying you have to put a temporary block down like this and then place your block down but you can get it done eventually as for the bottoms here we’ve got these

Two stairs like this and we just want to alternate these just the same way we did down here so every other one facing one way and then facing the other okay now this part is where it gets a little bit weird we’re still going to place our two stone bricks like this on

Every single one of these you might as well get those down right away we then want to place regular andesite on the top of each of these pillars and some of this smooth stone in between on the top portion of the slab all right now before

We start building the trim we can of course line this up with our terracotta just place it on the top of each one of these blocks and i’ll be right back in fact these parts on the end right here you can just pull them all the way in towards the wall and now

We have to start making the trim so i would start off right here underneath this tower with a stair like this and we’re gonna alternate every other one just like so and for the diagonal part right here we’re just gonna go with slabs and line it

All the way on both sides in fact over here on the inside on the courtyard side you will end up with one block like this you can just place a stair there just like on the other side now for this part to make things work well we’re gonna have to do something a

Little bit fancy right here and the first three blocks right close to this wall we’re gonna add another layer just like this and we’re gonna do it for this block here as well in fact just to make all this work we’re gonna bring this back so that it matches the other side there

And now we can start to pull this up and build ourselves an a-frame these parts we can bring into the wall in fact we can break this down right here so that they match up and now we can just start bringing this up towards the middle so they meet like

This and you’ll notice that we have the two block gap right here but since we have the stairs it doesn’t really look that strange and the strangest it’ll look is from the other side here but it’s going to match up really well with the diagonals so it’s probably not going

To matter then what you want to do is obviously you’re going to put your temporary blocks here and place your terracotta on top and we’re going to do this just the same way we did in the last video so bring that up if you need to know how to place

The blocks but i’ll be back when we’ve placed this diagonal section now in the end you should have something looking like this and what i’ve done is i’ve just doubled up slabs here and then doubled up every other slab as we go along not like that though

Just like this just the same way we did over there and once we’re done with this we can move on to actually building the throne room over here i will say though that before we move on we want to add a slab underneath here on every other block

Just to add a little bit of depth to this place it makes this row not look quite as bad so to start building the throne room here we want to be on the outside of the castle and we want to go to the end of this diagonal and

Right next to this right here we want to start building up a pillar that’s 19 blocks tall you then want to go ahead and replace the bottom block with a polished and a sight lock and we want to do this to every other one all the way up this pillar

We’re then going to measure out the width of this thing so skip one block then we’re gonna place a stone brick block then we’re gonna space out three place a stone brick three stone brick and then skip one again and place our polished andesite we once

Again want to bring this corner up with every other block like this 19 blocks just like that one what we then want to do is go to this block right here that’s next to this pillar and we just want to bring andesite all the way over to the other side and

We’re also going to place one of these polished andesite bricks right above where we have these stone bricks downstairs so something like that we’re then mostly going to use this part for decoration so you can pull these all the way up and on each of them we’re going to place stairs on either

Side like this just to round them off a little bit all right so you should have something looking like this and what we’re going to do is we’re going to move in one block so we’re not going to fill this in right here we’re going to move

One block backwards right here and we’re going to fill in a wall that covers all of this so this wall is going to come up all the way up to where these arches are right here make sure you don’t go all the way out to the edge here either

Next we’re gonna come up to where we have these stone brick pillars and we’re gonna make another stone brick pillar on either side here and we’re gonna bring it up nine blocks so nine blocks is just one block shorter than the edges here so you wanna bring it up to here and we’re

Gonna build a window here in the middle so you don’t have to do a pillar there we are however gonna add some decoration so just add a few slabs right here and in between them you can just go andesite stairs okay so to round this off we now want to place a andesite

Block right there and then we’re going to start creating a diagonal here of andesite until we meet in the middle between these two so we’re going to do the same thing on the other side place that block right there and start diagonaling our way up so that they meet right in the middle

Like so then you can go ahead and line it with some smooth stone slabs like that and we’ve got our window so we can now go ahead and bring this wall continue bringing it up all the way we’ll just carve our window out of it and we can bring this window

All the way up just so that we cover the slabs okay so the backside should look something like this and the front of your building should look like this and before we carve out the window i think we should mirror this on the other side because we’re not going to have a big

Window on that side so all we need to do now is space it right okay now this looks really complicated but it’s really just to show where we’re going to place some blocks in the future so if you want to line this out with wool or just with stone it doesn’t really

Matter you just need to know how far away we gotta be right here and so you might as well get this down i replaced these two with the blocks just so it wouldn’t get confusing if they were stoned so what you want to do is you want to start with this corner as

Your yellow then you want four blocks of the red then diagonally down from it we’ve got a yellow and then we got one two three red and then one red to the right you can also include your yellows over here if you want to but we then have

Two yellows down like this but one yellow one two three red yellow then we got two reds like this the reds come up basically if you need to take a screenshot of this right now and see how to build it go right ahead okay so what we’re going to

Do now is we’re going to do exactly what we did over on this side and we’re going to make this a 19 tall pillar what you can do now is either just rewind the video a little bit so that you can see exactly how to build this or just look at your build

And copy it over to this side we’re just gonna do exactly what we did over there you know space it out and so i’ll be right back as soon as we have an exact copy on that side over here and we can start working on this side okay there we go

Now i’ve finished both sides so we got them looking like this and on this side we can go ahead and add the details so the first thing we’re gonna do is we’re gonna go over here and we’re gonna knock out these five blocks and replace them with

Stone bricks we then want to come up to this block right here replace it these three with stone bricks and the same one over here and then we can knock everything out in between here on the sides you can bring up some stone brick wall pillars just like this then we’re going

To go ahead and round off the top of this window a little bit by placing some slabs and another stone brick wall pillar right in the center all the way down okay what you want to do right now is you’re definitely going to want to wall

Off your window just like this just so that the glass panes connect here towards the end and then you want to just start alternating these glass panes all the way down okay something just like that and our window is actually complete that’s actually it for this side

There are a few more details we’re going to want to add for the roof here later on but we’ll handle that when we start actually building the roof i mean we got two more walls to build all right ladies and gents since that last clip i’ve actually been sick and my

Voice has been absolutely horrendous but let’s continue on this tutorial it’s been a while i’m really sorry about that anyway the next step here is we’re going to go to where we have this beam and we’re going to go to the same block and we’re going to bring this across

All the way just like this you’re then going to want to grab yourself some smooth basalt and place one here right there right there right there here and here but then we’re just gonna bring this up all the way onto this andesite right here and we’re gonna bring the

Other basalt pillars up to the same height now that our vertical pillars are in place we’re going to want to place a few pillars just like this and we want this to come out three blocks and then on the fourth block we’re gonna place a chiseled stone brick just like so do

This on both sides we can then come to these corners right here and bring in two of these polished basalt and we want to bring out the chiseled stone bricks one block outside of this pillar right here and then connect them up with some basalt we can then go ahead and just place

Some stone brick stairs upside down like this underneath them and we can start building the walls so first off we can go to these yellow spots right here and what you want to do is just place three basalt like this and some stone bricks into them and you want to do this

On every single one of these we then want to grab some andesite and we’re going to actually connect these red spots up all the way up except for this one in the middle here here you’re gonna go three blocks up and then we’re gonna move in a block

Just like so and now we can move this up all the way in fact once you get up here you can actually just fill all this in with andesite since it’s gonna be the floor once that’s filled in we can go down here and these red spots that are

Remaining except for this middle one right here right we can just bring up all the way as far as we can all the way into the roof here alrighty the final detail over here is going to be to add some of these stairs to make some arches and for this one you

Only need to add these stone brick stairs on the inside like so we’re going to add some in the middle of course we can then also go ahead and add a little window down here by just knocking out some of this andesite putting in some of these stone brick stairs and some nether

Brick fences and that should be looking pretty good let’s move on to the balcony up here alright so for the balcony to start us off on this wall we’re just going to go to these chiseled stone brick blocks and we’re gonna bring up four blocks of these pillars and just

Put another chisel block on top we’re also gonna make sure we do the same all the way over here on these andesite blocks just go one two three four and add our chiseled stone bricks and do it on both sides we can then start connecting these chisel blocks up

Right here on these ones we’re just going to go to connect these ones in the middle and we should be totally good we’re then going to want to do the same thing we did down here and create some arches using our stone brick stairs just to even things out make them look a

Little bit rounder nicer and then here towards the bottom we’re going to use these anvils as a railing for the balcony Now we are going to want to put in a floor up here for a second balcony but to do this we are going to want to use slabs instead of full blocks just so we optimize the space up here once we’ve got that filled in we need to place

Another one of these polished bath salt pillars up on top of each of these chisel blocks and then except for these ones in the back we’re gonna play some smooth stone slabs on top of these pillars and connect everything up with an anvil okay now before we start working on the

Roof and the entrance out to the balcony here we’re gonna want to build up these walls here and the entrance out to this bottom balcony and so the first thing we’re going to do is going to grab our stone brick stairs once again place them like this

And we’re also going to place some upside down stairs up right above where this chisel block is just like so we’re then going to come up with our andesite and build a layer just like so and make sure that we build a 2×4 frame just like this it’s going to

Be super easy because it’s going to sit right in between these stairs then we’re going to grab our glass panes and do the same thing we did over here and alternate every other one with some white and some light gray glass panes okay once we got

That on both sides it’s time to worry about this wall right here so the first thing i would do is go two blocks away from this pillar and build another pillar up here and take out that block right there do the same thing on the other side

Once we’ve got that done we can connect these up with some slabs and after that we can actually connect a little border like this using slabs going all the way around once we’ve got this we’re going to place some more of our stairs right here just like so and then we’re gonna grab

Ourselves some oak trap doors and doors and then we can go ahead and add our trap doors just like this we’re also gonna do the same right here in the middle except we’re gonna take out these bottom blocks right here and put a door there instead

Then we can just go ahead and place ourselves a lantern right there and in these corners and when it should be well enough lit up to not spawn any mobs okey dokey let’s move on to the roof up here and the first thing we’re going to want to do is grab some polished

Andesite stairs and place one upside down right above this one and then grab our chiseled stone bricks and alternate the two until we get to this one over here then we’re just gonna place an andesite block on top of this thing over here and grab some of our smooth stone slabs and

Do that and you can copy this onto the other side just the same way all right now we’re going to do something different in the middle here but we can move on to the other side and do the exact same thing with these blocks except this

Time we can do it all the way across so you can go to this block right here the bottom of this pyramid shape place yourself your andesite stair and then just go all the way across alternating these blocks then you’re going to do the same thing and you’re going to place your smooth

Stone slabs on top of each of the andesite stairs but on this side we’re going to do something more interesting and we’re also going to place some of these walls right underneath here and i wouldn’t worry about the rest of this wall in fact we’re going to get to that in the

Next part when we start building the staircase and the rest of the towers so for now you can just let this wall be this way and we’re gonna start building the roof starting over here with the entrance to the balcony so with the entrance to the balcony you’re gonna

Come out over here and you’re gonna place four more blocks of andesite just like this and then you can grab yourself an anvil and place them in the missing spots right there we’re then going to get out some more andesite and start building ourselves a diagonal like so

Which meets up in the middle which is going to be one more block and do that on both sides of course once we got something looking like this you’re going to go one space away from the edge here and connect this up with some stone bricks then you’re going to grab your smooth

Stone slabs and place them on the bottom of these blocks and we’re going to move back and fill in some andesite on the block behind right here so once you fill this in like this we can break out a little three by three square just like this

And this is where we’re going to build the entrance so place yourself some stone bricks like this stone brick slab and some brick walls once we’ve got our entrance here we can go to the other side and place some of our spruce trap doors in a three by three pattern like this and

Then break out the ones in the middle here so that we can place a door the final detail is going to be adding a chiseled stone brick right there for some detail and at this point we can actually start working on the roof okay so to start out with the roof we’re

Gonna grab some prismarine bricks and we’re gonna place them on top of each of these blocks just like this all the way down to the edge and in fact we’re gonna come over here and do the same thing on these sides as well once we’ve got the prismarine blocks in here you’re

Going to want to skip the first block right here and then jump up one place yourself a stone brick wall warp fence with an iron bar and we’re going to do this every other block so in the end you should have something looking like this we’re then going to

Come over to the sides and we’re going to do the exact same thing and place five like this one up top skip a block go down skip a block go down do the same thing over on this side all right i would say that that’s looking pretty spiffy and now we can start

Placing our terracotta and the first layer is going to go right behind where these slabs are so just right here what we’re then going to do is just move up every other block so you can start you know underneath these prismarine blocks all the way up on this side and

We’re just going to fill all this in with terracotta now that we got that filled in we can move on to the other side where it gets ever so slightly more tricky and the only real difference here is that we’re going to bring this back all the way like this

Then once we get to this slab we’re gonna go into the corner on this one and once we get there we can basically just do the same thing on the next layer moving one back and so you get a shape looking kind of like this with a diagonal going up like that

And it’s not very difficult to fill in towards the top okay now once you got the roof filled in you can bring your brick slabs and place every other one on top like this in this pattern do the same thing down here and you’re pretty much done with the roof at

This point now what you can do is texture in some of these bricks the way we’ve done over here on this roof and these roofs which i am going to do later on but for now we need to add one final detail and this detail is going to be a few

More of these side towers like this in fact we’re going to place one on every corner of this building so let me show you exactly how to do that so first off we’re gonna find this pillar once again right here that’s going horizontally and get towards the end and we’re gonna go

Ahead and place a stone brick wall here and bring it out one block so it’s going diagonally from this one then we’re gonna place another stone brick wall on top of it and two andesites like this then we’re gonna place a temporary block and surround that temporary block

With some stairs like so upside down we’re then gonna bring this up another block and place some slabs just like so and after we add another layer of andesite just like this we’re going to go ahead and place some polished andesite stairs facing this direction after that we’re going to bring the rest

Of these up four blocks so they’re in line with this block right up here and once we got this we can place another upside down stair just like so and finish up with our nether brick fences it’s now time to build the roof on this thing so we’re gonna grab our

Prismarine stairs place them upside down in a ring all the way around this thing just like so if i can get the precision right and we’re then going to go ahead and place a warped trapdoor in between them just like this and some prismarines brick slabs

In the corners we can then go ahead and place some prismarine brick stairs on top of these warp trap doors and then finally finish up with a ring of terracotta in between all this we’re then going to place a few more of these terracotta blocks in a plus sign

Like this and add some brick walls in the corners we’re going to place a jungle fences with iron bars on top of all these and then add some more brick stairs just like so and bring up the terracotta one block above that then we’re gonna add our brick wall

And two jungle fences one iron bar and a flower pot on top okay i’d say that’s looking pretty fancy and we need to now add these in each of the corners at the same height right there the only place it’s actually going to be a bit tricky is right over here

But if you’ve been following along as you can see we’ve got these walls right here that match up with these ones so all you got to do is grab yourself some andesite and replace this block you can also go ahead and add another prismarine right there if you want just

To make it more fluid we’re then going to place our temporary block where our brick stairs are then going to go and at this point you can just start building your tower the same way you would otherwise alright so i’m gonna build up all the towers here in the corners and see you

Guys as soon as that’s done so that we can start building the flags on top of these all right now we got our four little side towers in and it’s looking really awesome if i do say so myself the last thing we need to add is

Of course a few flags so the way we’re gonna do this is we’re gonna go to our top two fences right here place a red wool and a yellow terracotta underneath it you can pick whatever two colors you’ve used then we’re gonna go ahead and back up in this direction with a red

Wool and place some yellow terracotta underneath that one just like this then we’re gonna come forward with the red wool once again and up one so that our flag looks like this in the end now the way i would do it for the other flags to make them not

Look the same is to just do kind of the opposite so instead of bringing that back one block we’re gonna bring it one forward here instead so you can see how i’ve used the exact same design for both of these flags except they’re just sort of

Opposite and i do the same thing so make the opposite of this flag the one you built over here over there on that one and this flag over here and once you’ve done all that you should have a building looking like this which is pretty awesome if i do

Say so myself you could have a thrown room in here we are of course gonna have to build this side of the building and this site over here but we’re gonna have some other stuff connecting into it so you don’t have to worry about that until the next episode which shouldn’t be as

Long as this one was just because i got sick once again i’m really sorry that this video took such a long time to get out but i am healthy now and i should be back on track to be able to make these videos a lot more frequently

So as always if you watch this video all the way to the end then you’re the champ and i appreciate your existence and until we see each other next time have a good one
