Building MINECRAFT items with LEGO…

This is a lego minecraft sword and this is a lego minecraft shield together they make up the perfect combat duo except they’re super tiny and meant for a lego minifigure not a human and not even a human dressed as a lego minifigure board of the 67 minecraft gaming lego building

Freak like myself could wield his own minecraft sword and shield and go into battle so today i’m going to try and design and build a life-sized lego minecraft sword and a life-size minecraft shield and then test them out by trying to fight and slay a lego minecraft pig and hopefully score myself

That nice juicy pork chop operation pork chop begins now first let’s build the shield and never actually build life-sized lego creations so we’re going to need some good strategies so the skill i’m going to use to build all these tools are that one minecraft pixel equals a two by two brick five plates

Tall that’s smooth on the top technically the weapons would hurt more if they were covered in studs because those are just painful but minecraft is more smooth so we’re going to tile all the studs off now if we implement our scale through the shield it says that we

Need to build this in the dimensions 22 by 12 minecraft pixels aka 44×24 lego studs so i grabbed a bunch of gray plates and laid out 44 by 24 lego studs and yes i did count each of those pixels on the shield i’m gonna need glasses

Soon okay but now that our base is laid out we’re gonna elevate this by a brick and then cover it with tiles to represent the shield’s design also the bricks will help it stay together because right now it’s best friends with cracking so i grabbed a bunch of gray

Bricks and outlined the base with them we did it now the thing is the only part of the brick layer that’s going to be seen at the end is the outer layer meaning that for the inside we just use any color to fill it in i speed ran

Filling it with grey bricks but i got impatient so i thought of the big brain idea of stacking three 16 by 16 plates to form a homemade 16 by 16 brick to use this filler instead of a bunch of small brown bricks but what i didn’t know was

That these plates have a massive surface area meaning that they peel off very easily if they’re stacked on each other and that led to a lot of smashing and pounding and forcing these pieces together but it was really smooth sailing from there i added one more of those three plates into a brick

Construction more smashing and finished elevating the shield hopefully those janky plate constructions don’t bite us in the elbow later on okay now’s the fun part we’re gonna layer this with the final layer aka the actual top view design of the shield but before that we have our most important step monster

Legends aka the sponsor of today’s video while i talk about monster legends i’m gonna try and build this character from the game as a lego minifigure okay so monster legends is an awesome free to play mobile game that is available on all devices your grandma’s computer with

Letters that take up the entire screen your little brother’s ipad that’s drenched in fingerprints all devices but what’s even crazier are that there are 900 monsters in this game and new monsters keep getting at it each week filling you up with even more monsters that you’re 100 going to need but you

Thought 900 monsters plus new ones each week was a lot well you can also breed these monsters and make so many different combinations for example you can breed this green dragon with a literal panda warrior and after you hatch a baby monster you can even level them up until they evolve this small

Monkey is at level 5 but after he gets stuffed with food he will become this massive flaming gorilla but that’s not even the coolest part because monster legends has a super unique part of the game called creators island this island features a bunch of our favorite youtubers as monsters in the game that

You can play as look at them fighting it out if all of this sounds fun to you you can download the game right now by scanning the qr code on the screen or with the link in my description and receive this awesome starter pack featuring 50 000 food you’ll never go

Hungry 300 000 gold you’ll be rich 10 gems you’ll be richer and this epic monster called kyori he looks really cool okay here’s the finished lego figure and it definitely looks better in the game now let’s get back to building the shield we need to decide on the

Color palette for the front design because it’s kind of confusing the shield in minecraft has gray of course but then many different shades of brown that are just slightly different but are still closely related in color and lego makes five different shades of brown dark brown brown nougat oh wait that’s

That’s a chicken nugget nougat dark tan and tan and as you can see they’re all quite different in color and using a mixture of them would just look more like an ugly rug than the actual shield so here’s the battle plan grey for the outline and all those grey pixels inside

The shield dark tan for the inside and brown for those little l sections underneath the grey spots inside the shield congrats to our colors we got the parts meaning it’s showtime Okay we’ve run into a big problem this the tiles are peeling off and literally making the surface look like an earthquake and the cause for this are of course those massive plate constructions from earlier but i actually have a plan for later that solves this that involves

Less smashing but for now we’ll smash okay i quickly tiled off the rest of the shields but we have run out of dark tan tiles oh no but there was an idea you see i still have this custom minecraft build that designed in the past intact

Which has a bunch of the dark tan tiles in the pathway i performed some surgery on the pathway and hopefully we secured enough tiles to finish off the shield surface we did and the surface of the shield is finally done but this is just a giant

Slab and we can’t actually hold this or so i thought oh wait never mind i’m gonna grip it holy crap my hand looks demonic okay we need to build a handle according to the internet this is how the handle looks like i literally never knew that i got designing on the handle

And used long plates for the bottom and then elevated the sides with bricks and formed a pretty accurate shape and for the cherry on top i tiled off the main grip points so that i could rest my fingers on a smooth surface rather than painful lego studs now for the lift test

This is gonna break oh is this actually pretty strong oh shoot jeez this looks like someone thought it was cake and took a munch out of it all fixed up now and we’re gonna test it again because i barely pressed the handle into the shield last time so hopefully it’s more

Sturdy now and oh yeah it is actually pretty stable could swoosh it practice with it and yes the shield works hopefully it’s good enough for the pig but now to fix the problem we had earlier with the tiles peeling off i have a genius plan i placed it

Underneath this bin filled with lego pieces overnight and now it’s time to build our offense aka the diamond sword the first thing we’re gonna do like the shield is build the bottom layer to do this i grabbed some black plates and laid them out in the approximate shape

Of the sword however these were tiny plates and kept scattering apart since they aren’t connected to each other in any way so i decided to add the layer of bricks on top while building the foundation this strategy worked much better and we’ve already layered it to 4

Out of 5 plates high now let’s build the shaft or blade the blade is done it looks spot on although it’s really floppy and has the structural integrity of soggy bread so we’re going to have to fix that later on but first it’s time to cover this build

With the tiles and make it look like an actual diamond sword i grabbed tiles in black dark azure and light aqua as well as some brown and dark brown ones and started layering the build with a proper design and placing these tiles was literally the most satisfying thing ever

And the sword is done and oh my god it looks really good time for the hold test okay it’s still super weak but we can swoosh it around to attack the table and oh my why all right i managed to fix it up but we’re gonna have to do something about

The soggy bread structural integrity because we cannot fight a plastic pig with this however going into battle with just these feels weak so let’s also build an axe because that’s some people’s preferred way of combat and it’ll be fun so it’s gonna be an iron axe instead of diamond because it’s just

Unique but really i just don’t have enough blue tiles to make a diamond one the way i built the axe was similar to that of the sword look at some reference images on a phone lay out a handle with plates elevate the handle with bricks build the blade this is so cool and

Layer it with tiles to represent the design of the axe there totally weren’t a bunch of mistakes i made with the shaping and design of this because i was stubborn and decided to use weird pieces to get the bill to overlap and be sturdy yeah yeah it was completely fine cold

Test oh it already failed wait actually it feels okay thor would be proud okay it’s almost time for battle but first we need to make these weapons sturdier because they have broken many times and we don’t want to walk into battle with soggy bread so to fix it i flipped it

Over and grabbed some of these inverted round plates with studs on the front and attached them to the weak points of the weapons now they’re much more sturdy and are in great shape for battle but i made one last modification by changing the colors of the diamond sword a little bit

Because i just didn’t feel like dark azure was spot on much better now now it’s time for the great war where lego minecraft weapons meet pig i went to my backyard i mean the battlefield with our sword we’re ready for battle there he is there’s the pig one hit ko axe attack Oh and now the shield we have nothing to defend against field attack shield attack oh my god good fight porkchop time subscriber you’ll end up like the pig oh yeah and once again thank you to monster legends for sponsoring this video make sure you download the game now and claim
