Basdav – So i revamped a Minecraft biome…

So as i’m sure you’re all aware recently mo yang completely revamped the mountain biomes and the first thing that i thought when i saw these crazy new mountains is what am i gonna do now what what is my purpose i build mountains now mountains are already built what do i do

They all look i don’t need to build cool mountains because mountains cool mountains already exist so you know what i’m gonna do i’m gonna i’m gonna make cool other biomes rather than mountains i’m bored of mountains mountains are already cool now it’s time to make these biomes completely

Revamped awesome like the other ones and i’m gonna have to do this in a series because there’s no way i could hurt all in one episode especially since this video needs to come out in two days from now so i’m going to start with the stone issues

Because that’s one of the ones that i really cannot wait to get to doing this step one is to create a basic idea of the shape that i want to go for now i quite like the idea of doing very spiky kind of like um the sydney opera house

Yeah i just searched it yeah kind of like the sydney opera house kind of shapes you know all spiky and curved uh and then i’m i don’t know i’ll figure out what to do after that so kind of the technique that i’m i’m going for to just try and get a vague idea

Trying to create this shape i’m just literally just completely random spamming blocks and hoping i get something cool okay that’s that’s something i don’t know if it’s good but it’s something No okay this is looking better and i think i’ve kind of managed to save this one as well but one problem is i’ve i’m really low on time already which is a big problem considering i’ve got like two minutes of footage however i’ve taken to using welded it and um

I think it’s gonna save some time so off the bat obviously we’re gonna build a couple more spikes you can see i’m using the cylinder tool with the brush to try and create this shape this one’s going a lot more vertical so i can really use that

And i’m sure i’m about to make another one over here this one i did a little bit more freehand i can’t remember exactly which tool i used with this one but i know without most of them i tried out using different tools i did a lot of problem with the water down here

Occasionally when i tried to raise it up it would raise the water with it as you see right there and that’s really the problem because that means i have to use the sponge to clear it out every time but luckily the ocean is full of sore spots now it

Fills itself back in but that was extremely annoying but i work through it it’s all working really well and i think this is looking amazing No spike over here you can see i used the sphere to try and create more of that curved um sydney opera house effect i was talking about earlier um and then i used the the form one to kind of just like raise the whole thing

A bit i do i really like using the deform one i think that worked really really really well and then up here we’re on the bigger scale so i completed the main bit and now i’m just at this moment i’m still trying to figure out the copy and paste

And as you can see i’m trying to copy and paste the same section around but trying to paste it without air and as you can figure out and figure out as i figured out as you can see i’ve just done that there and now it’s really starting to take

Shape it’s a bit of a cheat code but it worked really really really well and as you can see looking awesome finally went over some last second details and done okay so i am actually very very happy with this i got a few people in for their opinion i’ve decided i’m just

Going to do this side instead of both sides just because it’s not really any point this might have been a cool view but i just you know i’ll just get i’ll take this site i’ll get an editor and i’ll mirror it yeah anyway the thing to do Excuse me anyway the next thing that i want to do is to add some kind of structure i i’m thinking what makes the most sense would be to put a lighthouse maybe about here so i want to go place there brush cylinder um let’s just go i’m gonna start

With very vibrant colors but then i’m going to i’m going to do the detailing afterwards so red red red concrete just for the time being as i said i think i want to go three right slightly bigger and now we go and basically continue that but making it

Slightly smaller each time until we get the shape that we want okay so this this is pretty good but i think just for a little bit of realism i want to add a bit of structure around here nice now for the detailing so now these are done

And now the last thing to do is going to be to add leaves and moss so it’s all overgrown but first now i’m questioning whether i should add leaves everywhere or just around here it doesn’t really make much sense for it to be just around there

I don’t know we’ll see so now we’re going to start to go over some of the final details you can see i’m starting by going off with layer of dirt and then a little bit of grass and then some leaves and i play around a little bit with

Trying to do some automatic liking but it just doesn’t work very well so i go over it in a layer of liking manually and then what am i doing now i honestly don’t know still doing the liking i think and then a few extra leaves all around okay

So this is looking pretty good but the last thing i want to do is to add some ambiance and i’m going to show you how i’m going to do that now i’m not 100 sure if this is going to work but as you can see i’ve got shaders on

This is sealed there’s shaders i think that’s how it’s pronounced sealed there’s something like that and i’m gonna use multiple layers of glass to try and do this now i’ve just realized i do need to get some connected textures going now i’m going to start with doing some yellow streaks of light

Coming from here and now that i’ve gotten these streaks of light i’m going to give myself some light ups and hopefully i can use this to create an effect something like this i’m going to go with 15 oh what’s going on there okay so i’m going to recreate this exact

Same effect over on this side okay so that’s looking pretty good now i’m going to add some gray glass all along to create a misty foggy effect so i’m just going around with the brush like this trying my best not to dig this into any of the spikes it’s not easy

But eventually i’m gonna end up with lots of glass all spread around creating hopefully this kind of foggy misty effect so now you can really start to see the effect that i’m going for you can see all the fog and the light shining through and i think this is looking really really cool

A lot of the spikes are kind of silhouetted but you can still see the harsh stone spikes at the front now i’ve just got to continue it around here and then i think we’re done and like that i think we’re done you can see i’ve got the time cycling by and um

Let’s be honest it doesn’t look that good at daytime uh because i designed this in night time intentionally because i think this is a much better ambiance but even at i actually think it looks really nice uh at about sunrise that looks pretty cool but as the moon goes down and the sun

Comes up i don’t know i think this looks absolutely incredible i really hope you enjoyed watching um please do subscribe if you want to see me convert converting more biomes because let’s be honest some biomes are a bit boring can’t wait to see [Applause]
