EPIC Minecraft Vehicles! 🚗 – Pixlriffs Tutorial!

Hello everyone my name is pixel riffs and welcome back to the Minecraft Survival Guide hope you guys are having a good day we are back here at the entrance to our ski resort and I love some of the acronyms some of you guys came up with for the word snag some

People were like super nifty Alpine holiday grounds I think lady Maji was the person who came up with that I kind of like that let’s go let’s go with that or something like it I think there are some some pretty inventive ones in the comments but today yes

We are going to be working a little bit more on the area around here and I mentioned yesterday setting up a car park sort of thing over here maybe and having some kind of you know vehicles in the parking lot as though tour groups

Have come in like a bunch of it would be skiers and snowboarders have gotten off the bus and I figured around here would be a good place to build it’s probably gonna be quite large but will need a bridge over the river and then an immediate left turn into an area like

This and it can probably be quite expansive over here I certainly have a fair amount of gray concrete powder ready to go so I think we should make a start on that I will need to dip back and forth to founders Forge to get some materials though because the ambitions I

Have for this place are kind of exceeding the infrastructure I have set up here for example I have a plan to build a coach and there may be a couple of cars today and that’s gonna require a lot of concrete and I do not have the materials to make concrete around here I

Don’t even know there’s a couple of red flowers over there I need a lot of red dye so I don’t think the snow Plains is going to provide much of that for me but I’m gonna grab all of this concrete powder out of here I will probably drop

Off a couple of the other things just so I’ve got a little bit of a clear inventory and a clearer mind and we’ll lay out the boundaries of this carpark over here so the bridge is gonna come across there it’s probably gonna hit land sort of over here then the road is

Gonna come this way and I probably want the road to stay roughly the same sort of size it could narrow a little bit we could have a little bit of infrastructure around here just a roundabout or something like that maybe I’m British I have roundabouts on the

Brain but then if we go one two three four five six seven eight nine and we have that be the end there and then you know what yet we could probably just have this go all the way around here around this side we could probably we want to keep it on one

Level really maybe I should try not to waste concrete too much at this stage and put some stone or something underneath it for the sake of propping this place up once it gets out over the site here seems reasonable to assume that we’d be building this on some sort

Of stone of foundation anyway and we do want it to be fairly large because the vehicles that we’re planning on building here are going to be fairly realistic to play a scale that’s really the compromise you have to make when you’re building anything sort of realistic in Minecraft is you have to compromise

Between player scale and the level of detail you can put into something and you’ll find yourself trying to figure out what the best ratio of that is whether you’re gonna build something that looks ridiculously large for the scale of the player just so you can fit details in or if you’re gonna compromise

On the amount of detail and just kind of fill in the rest with your imagination so you can make something that looks like it’s roughly the scale of the player and I feel like this carpark idea with the the vehicles I have planned makes a sort of happy medium I guess I

Think that’s about as far out as I want to get let’s take a quick look at this from the air now that we’ve got that corner figured out and just check that that’s looking yeah that’s a reasonable size I think we could probably fit a few

Vehicles in there we want like three bus lengths really so that we could imagine there is room for buses to pull out and turn around and that kind of thing and then there will be a smaller parking bay for cars and stuff like that it’s gonna be interesting planning something like

This for once though because those stuff we’ve been doing over at founders forge definitely has a fantasy medieval kind of feel to it and as such I only really have to think about like horse and cart travel at the most whereas the stuff we’re gonna be building here is quite a

Bit bigger and we’re gonna be keeping bits and pieces of the natural terrain around here but cutting away a whole bunch of the rest of it so that we can make a little bit of room for our urban development here and I think roughly here by the river is a good place to

Leave it so as we come over here we’ll kind of square it off slightly it doesn’t have to be a perfect rectangle of course it can have another section over here that might be a little bit shallower then we’ve got over there but yeah this is looking decent I think this

Is a a fairly decent sized space for and we can use some of this dirt of course to put a platform over the top here and we’ll probably have to light up underneath it which hopefully we won’t need to look at too much but ultimately the concrete powder here being affected

By gravity is gonna have to rest on top of something so the dirt and grass that I’m picking up from around here is probably going to be it and filling all of this in is going to be a pretty hefty task because we’ve got a pretty large

Space to fill in with dirt and we need to cover that over with the concrete powder so I’m just gonna relax I’m gonna put on a podcast I’m going to just hammer through the rest of this and when we come back we’re gonna start marking

Out the area for our parking lot so this took about a solid hour to put together all tolls and not just a crossing over that area but just going back and getting all of that concrete powder we still have a few gaps to fill in in the substructure

Here and there but we can of course decorate the outside of this bring parts down from the carpark area and I think the next thing to do is really going to be to sort out exactly where to put all of the lines I think this section here

Like I said is going to be where the road comes in so I think there are probably going to be a few parking spaces around here what I’m thinking of having is like a kind of parking booth with a barrier over the front so that people can’t just driving in and out you

Know they have to pay parking fees and that kind of stuff and then maybe on the left hand side here we can have some short-term parking for cars and stuff just so they could get in and out nice and easily and then the coach so just

Gonna drive all the way down to the end here it’s funny I’ve never really had to do any kind of civic planning stuff obviously that’s really not part of my job in real life or anything so I think I think we’re probably gonna just have to wing it and see what happens

Question mark I guess I guess that’s what we’ll do but I’m gonna be marking out the lines and stuff with snow layers simply because I just didn’t have enough white died at the base to put together this entire floor of grade I’d concrete and also make some white concrete as

Well but I think we’ll probably mix it up with white concrete at some point in the future when I can be bothered to go and get it when I have the patience to go and get it because white concrete is going just look like they have painted the

Same road surface it’s gonna have the same texture so that totally makes sense to me another thing I thought we can do is have polished andesite here as the kind of I don’t know what to call them ready like blockers I guess the things that you find at the

Edges of car parks to prevent the cars from like going up and over and and you know just being in the way for these things and maybe we can even just make those out of andesite slabs instead of full blocks to both you know break up the amount of resources we’re using for

It and kind of have them look a little bit more realistic I think if they are at like this level here yeah perfect okay and then either side of that we are going to have some nice big white lines denoting that this right here is a single parking space so I guess this

Right over here is going to be car parking or maybe even bike parking depending on the designs that we want to go with because three blocks wide can fit a decent sized minecraft car but is still a little bit on the slim side especially if you want to get a little

Bit of detail in and that’s another reason why snow layers aren’t necessarily going to work out for the long term because we might want to put some sort of car block here like that and that’s going to get a go over the line and it’s going to erase the line

Because it can’t occupy the same space as the snow block but here look at that that’s reaching right to the edge of this little space here leaving a little bit of room there I think over here we’re going to have maybe even a little

Kind of cafe or a maybe a I don’t know gas station sort of style convenience store kind of thing not necessarily like a filling station right here but somewhere that people are going to be able to grab a snack or something before they find their way out or perhaps

Before they leave the place in the first place and now let’s move over here I think we can probably do I’d say like four or five blocks space and then build another white line there these were like five blocks long six blocks long yes something like that one two three four

Five six and then we’re going to have that go there at the back and then can we fit another six in here on two three four five six you know I think we can so we’re going to have double wide section here four parking spaces that’s gonna work out famously and the unfortunate

Problem with this whole area being hollow underneath is the idea you occasionally hear a little bit of zombie noise and I have done my best if we actually come down here I can show you I’ve actually done my best to make sure that the area below here isn’t lit

Up to the best of my ability so we have rows upon rows of torches and that kind of thing but there are caves under this area as well and there are some spots that get a little bit dark here and there but I’ve done my best to make sure

This area is well lit up because I don’t know about you but the last thing I want to hear when I’m parking my car at a ski resort is the sound of a horde of zombies right so I think it’s probably best if we have that area lit up it’s

Also going to help if we end up building a mob farm here which I feel like I will probably need to do just so I can get some more white died right now so maybe that can be another episode this week don’t forget of course that if you want

Extra snow layers to work with and we will be needing a lot of snow layers all you really need to do is set up a snow golem inside a box like this where he can’t escape just look at the corner of a block that he’s standing on and just

Hold down left-click this is going to burn through your shovel pretty fast so it’s very important to have a shovel with mending and in this case I’m using my silk touch shovel because I want to gather these snow layers if you just want snowballs because four of those

Will make a full block of snow instead of eight layers making a full block of snow and obviously having to place it stacked up like that all you really need to do is swap out the silk touch shovel for a regular shuttle it doesn’t have silk touch you won’t get any more snow

Balls using fortune or anything like that but you will at least get yourself a ton of snowballs you can convert easily into snow blocks yeah I think we will leave a nice wide space over here because we’ll need a one direction for vehicles to come in and another for them

To go out again so I think this is going to be it for the parking on this site all the way down here we’re going to have our Coach parking and these are going to be quite wide and quite long spaces because the design I have in mind

Is a bit of a hefty one so let’s start over here maybe a couple of blocks in from the side we’ll put our little blockers here like so and we’ll do those five blocks wide and then the space itself is going to be a little wider we

Are going to be making of the white lines here sixteen blocks long and we are going to have them seven blocks apart so one two three four five six seven blocks in the middle and then on one side and the other side we’re going to have white lines we’re gonna repeat this down

Here a few more spaces and now if we take a look at this from the air that’s looking like a car park I head out to say that does look like a car park now we need some cars to move in here and I brought a few resources with me from

Founders Forge and I might need to go and grab a couple more things but we’re gonna be building a nice big tour bus kind of coach thing to start out with so I’ve got a bunch of materials here we’re gonna be using a lot of looms for this

Design actually which is kind of cool we’ve got a lot of red concrete we’re going to be making some of the remaining gray concrete powder into concrete as well so that we can use that to decorate a little bit here and yeah I’ll need to go and grab a couple more resources but

We can figure out a couple of good vehicle designs to go in here maybe just vary the colors a couple of different ways and we can start to make this place a little bit more colorful okay so I’m back I think I have all of the resources that I need in these two

Shilka boxes and I think it’s time to get started I’m gonna grab the crafting table from over here if I didn’t have one in my inventory already and we’re gonna pick one of these Coach spaces because we’re gonna be building ourselves a nice big tour bus over here

So we’re gonna start out with our wheels and for those I’m actually using blocks of coal if that’s a little bit expensive or you can always use another black block like black concrete or black walls something that’s nice and easy for you to get but I just kind of like the look

Of blocks of coal I think they look kind of like a tire texture almost kind of thing you can sort of imagine there being rubber tire ridges in there and stuff like that so we’re going to start off around here and we’re going to build ourselves a 2×2 area here that’s going

To be the wheel we’re gonna leave a gap of three blocks and build another wheel on this off as its side like so and then we’re gonna go back here and we’re gonna count out one two three four five six blocks and then we’re going to build

Another set of wheels there and there we can have enough room for that I think maybe we need to shift it one block further this way yeah there we go we need at least one blocks worth of space before we hit this blocker kind of thing

Over here so that should be plenty and over here we’ll do the same thing we’ll mirror these wheels on the opposite site and this is because when you see buses of this kind of size coaches and that kind of thing they all the way they always have a second set of wheels and

The back I’m not entirely sure why they just kind of have them there maybe there spares maybe they are just you know they’re in case it needs a little extra traction I’m honestly not sure and I’ve got some smooth sandstone blocks here smooth sandstone is the one that you

Have to smelt regular sandstone in a furnace to get and I’ve broken that down into stairs and slaps which we’re going to use to form the kind of wheel arches on the outside of the truck here and thankfully it’s kind of cool you can actually get underneath this section

Here now by crouching with the new Crouch height so it’s super easy to get the stairs placed in the right formation and we’re going to be building out to the side like that so the second the bottom half of that stair kind of has a slab coming off of it and a slab

Underneath it and we’re going to be doing that for all of the wheels on both sides so they end up looking like this and they have these kind of like watches that conceal the fact that this is just a two by two block and make them

Look a little bit more rounded at the top there we’re gonna stash those sandstone pieces away and we’re going to grab the looms and I’ve got a whole bunch of these they’re nice and cheap to make they are just two string and two would each and we’re going to use these

To kind of represent compartments on the side of the vehicle like so as though it’s got kind of paneling on the site the side texture of looms is actually really nice for this so I’m gonna put that all the way along here and at the front it’s actually going to double up

As kind of headlights or you know some sort of front detail like so we’re gonna bring that two blocks further out so that there is one sticking out from the wheel arch there and then we’re gonna go one block more and on this side we are actually going to replace that with an

Area where pedestrians can get out of the vehicle this front part here is going to be filled up with note block so we’re gonna put one extra note block on there and then we’re gonna put another loom on top of there and another loom on

Top of that block there so the front of it looks like this underneath this loom here I’m gonna build out a little row of polished andesite slabs we’re gonna come around the front here like so make a few more of those as we go and they’re going

To connect up to the bottom half of that wheel they’re forming this kind of like fender underneath there we’re gonna continue that underneath the looms around the sites and we’re gonna end it at the back here with two there and the looms on the back are going to face this

Way as well we’re going to effectively have those be our rear headlights we’re also gonna have some item frames above those in a second that are going to contain glass panes for some additional like indicator lights or something like that I guess they’re not headlights if

They’re on the back of the vehicle but you know what I mean like a rear-facing lamps the next step is gonna be to take some oak logs craft those into oak wood which has the bark texture on all six sides and then we’re going to use these

To line the top of the row of looms over the top here coming to the back here to make sure that all of the textures are in line we’re then gonna take our X out and strip those logs so they just have the stripped of wood texture we are

Going to leave a space here that’s going to be completely surrounded in a second by red concrete but it’s going to be wood paneling all the way up to this and we’re gonna do the same thing here on the opposite site as well just paneling the entire thing until we get

To about there and this is where the drivers cab is going to be so that’s going to be exclusively made out of red concrete of course if you wanted to conserve resources technically speaking only the front logs and the back logs on the end here would have to be the old

Six side bark texture the rest of them could just be regular oak logs if you wanted to but yeah not to worry we don’t need to worry too much about that next up we are going to lay out the interior first just to get a better idea of how

This is gonna look we’re gonna grab some gray and black wool and that’s effectively going to form two rows of carpet on either side and one row down the middle and the row here is where we’re going to have all of these seats on either side and the central aisle is

Just where people are gonna be able to walk down to get to their seats now we can’t exactly make the seats two people wide or anything like you would probably normally find on a coach but it’s gonna be a luxury coach I guess so single person seating on both sides we’ll leave

A gap at the back so we can build out the back of the vehicle just lay the greywool down the middle there we could of course do that with carpet or something if you wanted to and we’re going to have it end here and in here

We’re going to have a little kind of stair step up in a second we’re going to leave that for the moment and just move on to building the outer sort of chassis of the vehicle with red concrete and gray concrete that’s gonna build up around the front here in a nice thick

Layer like so we’re going to put one gray concrete on either side like that and then we’re going to leave a gap here for some glass that we’re going to be putting in a little bit later we’re gonna fill in this side with red concrete and on this side we are going

To leave a space underneath here for a door to go in and I brought an acacia door for that I think that’s probably going to fit the best into this red vehicle and I think we could probably even fill that in there with a red surround as well it could be that it

Could be the wood panel it’s gonna make very little difference at this point I think but I’m gonna take one of these polished andesite slabs and on the inside we’re gonna add another stair to step up into the vehicle there and while that’s going to be a little bit

Difficult to just walk in without crouching once you crouch you can actually step up onto that andesite slab so it’s actually gonna make the interior of this kind of mob proof because mobs won’t be able to get a step that high but from where the door

Is we’re gonna have this come back one block more and one block more on that side as well and then we’re going to leave a 2 block gap for a window for the passengers and then we’ll place a concrete pillar there to block gap concrete pillar to block gap concrete

Pillar to block gap concrete pillar and this is where we’re going to fill in the back of the vehicle like so we’ll do the same pattern of concrete on the opposite side and above that starting on this last block here I’m going to build a line of grey concrete all the way

Towards the back and this is just gonna be a stripe down the edge of the vehicle to break up this large area of red concrete we would have otherwise and kind of make it look like the vehicle has some sort of color scheme or branding on the side of it we’ll add

Another layer of red concrete onto the top of that and the majority of this is actually going to form the roof of the vehicle so I’ll start to fill it in from the back here you will take the occasional block that I’m going to inevitably misplace and I’ll get about

As far as the driver’s enclosure at the front here and we’re going to stop so I can grab the glass that’s going to form the windscreen and the interior windows I’ve got some light blue glass for this which I’m going to turn into light blue panes that should be more than enough

For what we need and hopping up here once again we’re going to grab that and we’re going to put it in the central sort of area of the windscreen here we’re going to fill in the side panel with glass there as well and we going to

Come up one block on top of these gray concrete on either side connect all of that and then we’re going to build up a roof of red concrete over the top of that and in the center here leaving a gap on each of the corners where we’re

Going to be placing a polished and a sight block instead I’ll just fill that in it with two slabs for now like so and we’re actually going to dangle some wing mirrors off of these because coaches like this typically have at large wing mirrors that hang from the front so that

You can see around the large bulk of the vehicle for that I just made some iron bars we’re going to dangle them off the front of the andesite blocks like this and there we go having them dangle two blocks down like that does not look entirely practical when you’ve got this

Block on the corner here but you find that vehicles like this typically have quite long mirrors I know maybe the driver can see out to the the side of those going through the interior here I’m gonna add another andesite slab there so the driver has something to get

Up onto but his little enclosure here is actually going to have a seat up there let me grab some more red concrete so I can finish off the back of the vehicle which is still a little bit open and right here we’re actually gonna have the

Driver set up at this height so he can see out of the windscreen nice and easily and yet he can’t really see to the rearview mirrors but hey this isn’t the most practical vehicle right I’m gonna fill this in at the back here with red concrete up until this point we’re

Going to fill in the stripe of gray at the sides there you know actually we might end up leaving this as a large open rear view window like that yes they’ll be able to see out of the back that way as well and we’re gonna fill in

These windows here on the sides like so for nice big windows full of passengers to look out of gonna fill in this piece of wall they’re not quite sure why I didn’t add that in the first place and up here where the driver sits we’re

Going to add a nether brick seat for him right there with a trap door on the back of it like so and I think what we’ll do is go down all the way to the back and place a bench seat at the back there and then alternate open blocks and nether

Brick stairs like so and nether brick stairs just gonna look like a nice plush seat here and we’ll do those all the way to the front we could always have somebody sat right here at the front if we wanted to but I think it’s nice to

Have them set at least one block back there and then alternate like this until we have a full set of seats on either side in fact we could bring this roof back a little bit and then just add another spruce trapdoor on top of there

Like so so the driver has this nice kind of high column to sit on and I think what I did here was build a little steering wheel with a nether brick fence and an iron trap door so let’s see if I can whip up one of those oh I forgot

Nether brick fences are walls now if you use that recipe okay well maybe we can make that work let’s build an iron trap door there as well hop into the vehicle here and place a nether brick wall that’s not really gonna work very well as the steering column is it in fact I

Think I’ve built the entire chair a little bit too high so how about if we sit him there that looks a little bit better doesn’t it and we’ll have a nether brick wall there and a trap tall there okay that works a little better I

Kind of like that as the as the steering wheel just about managed to get to the bed before too many mobs ended up spawning and I might light up the interior of this if only so I don’t end up getting a rude interruption from a creeper while

Trying to finish off this vehicle I’m gonna add a little bit of detail to the side of this using some oak trapdoors we’re also going to have the trapdoors kind of covering the front of the vehicle here to hide that noteblock texture I think it looks quite good as a

Note block texture on its own but the trapdoors also give a tiny amount of depth to that which I really quite like we can a remove a few of the looms over here if you want to include some slightly more realistic storage in this whole design and I think it’s gonna be

Fun to incorporate some barrels behind here yeah I brought some barrels over with me and then have some spruce trapdoors go over the top of them so effectively what you’ve got here is a place for passengers on the coach to store their luggage you could just kind

Of roll it into one of those barrels as it opens up and then with spruce trapdoors over the top of those you could close those off if you wanted to to make it look like the compartment is shut but if you want to get your luggage

All you have to do is open that up and we can maybe use this as storage around here while we’re building some of the other vehicles I’m also gonna use the oak trapdoors as decoration on the side here above each of those red columns just to give a little bit of detail to

The side of the bus we’re gonna mirror that on the opposite side as well and we’ll do a pattern of four trapdoors like that on the back of the vehicle as well now I think we’ll do a little bit of stuff to the roof including bringing

This section here out by one block and kind of making it into a loose triangular shape and then around that we’re going to put a row of polished andesite slabs which are also going to line the rest of the outside of the roof once I’ve crafted a few more and

Vehicles like this tend to have retractable Sun roofs so I think at the back here what I’m gonna do is create a raised up section of concrete with maybe a three block gap in the middle where we’re gonna be able to have a little glass window as a skylight kind of thing

There we go got three blue glass inside of there and maybe on the inside we can decorate that around the interior with some nether brick slabs or something like that here we go with the interior a few nether brick slabs around the outside like that so it looks a little

Bit padded yeah yeah I like that I think this has come together pretty well now for the finishing touches this really needs some item frames for the mirrors and additional headlights but I don’t think I brought any leather with me so I wonder if we can maybe find a cow around

Here hmm there is on here in the village but I kinda don’t want to kill the villages only cow so who are perhaps here one of the forests finally found a couple of cows man they are tough to track down the Heath the wilderness really is kind of living up

To its reputation at this point and we are struggling to get a little bit of leather but six leather should be enough that’s two for the headlights two for the wing mirrors and two for the rear lights as well look how far I had to come though and this is really an

Indication of quite how big this snow biome is so there we go touching down back out base we can make ourselves a few sticks so that we can make some item frames and each of the item frames we can apply to the vehicle say like here

And here for some headlights we can add them to the sides for some rearview mirrors as well and a couple on the back there and there and I don’t have many other colors of stained glass with me right now but we could always just put blue panes in there since those the ones

I brought with me and we have a few of those left over so there we go here is our majestic vehicle a pretty much complete although I think I forgot an oak trapdoor on this section here by the driver’s seat there we go that’s looking nice and you can almost imagine it being

A fire truck if you added a ladder made of iron bars to the top of it or something like that but I kind of liked the red for the you know coach company look I kind of like that a lot even though the wheel arches do stick out I

Feel like it looks kind of weirdly naked without them it just kind of looks like a massive block of coal there so I kind of like having that element to shape them out of course your mileage may vary and you can feel free to adapt this design however you like use different

Colors different materials give it a go and experiment it is looking a little bit lonely in this parking space all by itself though so I think I’m gonna go ahead and make another one of these I’m gonna do that off camera now that you’ve seen these step-by-step tutorial for how

To build this but I’m gonna build another one using the green terracotta the liberal thovex I think that’s gonna make a nice contrasting thing I’ve got some stripped birch for that instead of stripped oak logs so we’re going to vary the color scheme ever so slightly but I

Think it’s gonna be nice to have more than one vehicle in this parking lot and we can always add a couple of cars into these spaces as well and a short time later we have a second boss and look who showed up although I think this is a caravan

Rather than the bus it’s the wandering trader and he once again has very little I’m interested in but I am really happy with how these turned out I’m still gonna go and grab some more leather on item frames and stuff like that from back in founders Forge I feel like that

Seems like the thing to do instead of hunting down cows fruitlessly in this area for a little while but that is where we are going to call it for today folks I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing this little parking lot come together and we will add in a few more vehicles as time

Goes on I will try my best to update you on the progress of this but from the air it actually looks really cool over here I have like one firework to show you this so I guess I better make it count let’s take a look at this from a

Distance yeah alright it actually looks kind of nice having these giant busses in here now and you can imagine these bringing in groups of tourists to come here to the ski resort of course there’s not really much of a ski resort for them to come to yet because we haven’t built

Much of it but we will be building a whole lot of it in the days to come and I hope you guys are looking forward to that once again thank you so much for watching this episode of the Minecraft Survival Guide my name is Finn Pixar ifs
