I started my new MEGA BUILD in Hardcore Minecraft

Over the last 3000 days we’ve built a couple of pretty cool areas we’ve got a nice village island type thing we’ve got our tiny Epic Garden but now it’s time to start something brand new and I have alluded to this in previous episodes but what we’re going to be doing is

Essentially making a giant industrial area that’s also going to be some kind of a modern city of some kind and that’s all going to take place on This Island right here so I guess we need to head over there first we’re currently here but what I need to do is clear all of

The trees these islands are absolutely covered in trees so first things first let’s head over there with our ax and a whole bunch of shulker boxes and I guess we’re going to restock our wood supplies too and once we’ve done that we’ll go into a little bit more detail about what

Our plans are what we’re going to be building over there I’m stuck in my lift there we go and we may even get to start some builds today as well who knows so this is our Island this is where we’re going to be building however I do need

To clear the trees and we’re gonna have to do loads of terraforming as well just before we can even start building so I’m starting to think that maybe this episode is going to be a whole lot of terraforming maybe not that much Bill after all And about three hours later we finally have a completely clear couple of islands and that gives us a much better idea of the space and the terrain we’re working with although we are going to be making some adjustments to the terrain certain bits like this you know we’re

Going to smooth out we’re going to get rid of some of these holes and so on but before we do that I do actually want to link this up via the Nether and I think the first area we’re probably going to be building is actually over here in the

Savannah bit but uh yeah we’ll get to that build shortly first up let’s just dump down a nether portal it doesn’t need to be too precise at the moment let’s just stick it up here then we’re going to light this portal and then we’re just gonna go to the nether I

Think so we’re gonna fly all the way back to our tiny Epic Garden and then we’re gonna get this portal connected up and that should make things a lot easier because I think after that my much as I really know I need to do terraforming over there I think we’re actually just

Going to do a little bit of terraforming over here primarily to get rid of that hole and we’re going to do our first little build here which is pretty much the only build over here that’s not going to have a farm inside it but we’ll come back to that shortly first off

Let’s go get connected thankfully it’s not too far only about 150 blocks or so let’s see how we get on so it looks like this is the spot so let’s just Jam a portal in here and I’m actually going to dig out the back there as well because I

Think it might be worth linking up to our sort of main portal I’d really like to use the word Hub but uh where are sort of starter Island portrait is I’m struggling to use my words apparently let’s try that again so the Portal’s in it’s in the right place and if we dig

Out this way it should link us back to our starter Island there we go that was much better but first up let’s just check that this Link’s to the right place wish me luck well it certainly does but it’s also night time so we should probably leave straight away

Again for now we don’t have any torches over here whatsoever so I think for now I’m just gonna take out the rest behind the portal as well see if we can’t get this linked up to the starter Island well it’s a bit of a shoddy link up but

It’ll be do for now however if we go out here and just follow these lanterns this will actually take us to the tunnel entrance which is yeah not ideal but once again we don’t really have the time to do anything in the nether just now we’ll get to that some point in future

And the reason we don’t have a proper nether Hub or anything up till now is basically down to indecisiveness I can’t decide exactly what I actually want to do with another Hub I’ve got quite a few ideas and I think they could all work quite well but some of them involve

Basically building on the nether roof and not really building down here at all others just they’re going to take a lot of work and YouTube and the nether are not the best of friends because of YouTube compression so yeah still still undecided at the moment but we’ll get

There eventually but for now we’ve got more important things to do like making a start over here and the first thing I need to do really well at least now we’ve got rid of the trees is probably just fly a bit further away so we can despawn those mobs we don’t need those

Lurking around but I think what we’re going to do is just terraform this area a little bit make it a little bit more usable am I gonna get our first build down here which is actually going to be something we can use for storage for while we’re over here building because

Of course we do have our massive Storage Center which is all well and good but we still need some localized storage especially considering the size of this project and how long we’re going to be building over here and I’ve got a couple of ideas of what we might do for that

But for now let’s just get this area tidied up a little bit let’s get rid of this massive hole and we’ll generally just make it a little bit nicer to build on it’s a bit all over the place really at the moment isn’t it But it’s not perfect but it’s good enough for now we will of course integrate all of this into the rest of the build as we go but for now we just wanted this small flat area over here because it’s time for us to start our first build and because we’re going to

Be building a city let’s jump into free cam and take a look this area is about absolutely massive we’re gonna be having big skyscrapers everywhere we’re gonna have urban districts we might even have some suburbs and things who knows it kind of depends how big I end up making

Some of these some of these Farms I guess let’s not worry about the Farms now because what we need is an area over here where we can store everything and because we’re building a city I think it makes perfect sense to have some kind of a construction yard and treat that as

Our sort of temporary storage area type thing for what we’re actually building over here so what we’re going to be doing is building a few shipping containers and maybe even some construction equipment as well but first up let’s just try and get some shipping containers down and see if we can’t sort

Out some storage somewhere to sleep and probably somewhere to put the portal as well so I think I’m gonna put this first one right at the back here so let’s just get some feet down and figure out how big it’s gonna be I guess so I think size wise that should just

About do the trick let’s just get the rest of this built up and see how we’re looking on the grand scale of things I guess so I think I’m happy with the size and shape of this thing we just need to figure out a way to actually get inside

And I want to have some kind of gangway I think some kind of metal type of platform that leads into it I think that’s going to be kind of building Society but still we can pull off here shall we so first up let’s just try dumping some iron railings on here and

See how that looks maybe we can put a and a site wall in there as a support okay that doesn’t look too bad it looks a little bit feeble around here though so maybe we need to reinforce this there we go I think that’ll do the job we can

Get to it from both sides and we’ll make it look a little bit fancier and so on and get some texture on and some other bits around to sort of blend it in a bit better but I think for the shape and size that should work quite nicely I’ve

Also added a couple of fake doors on the entrance here but on the inside we have lots and lots of space and I think what we’re probably gonna do is move the portal over to here because well it’s just dangerous up there isn’t it if it gets dark there’s going to be creepers

In there and all sorts but we’ll also get a couple of workstations in here and also a bedroom of some kind so we’ve got somewhere to rest our weary head after a long day’s work but before we get to all of that I think I do actually want to

Lay out where I want the storage container to be as well which I think might actually be an angle over here potentially should we do an angled storage room I mean we could put an angled storage room in a storage crate but it certainly wouldn’t be the first time we’ve done

Something like that because on Legacy we did actually have well a very similar storage crate to that one as well actually thinking about it but we had a couple of storage crates as our main base so I guess we could just take a leaf out of that book and build a small

Storage unit over here it did work quite well after all question is do I want to do another green container or do I want to swap it out for a different color I think I think maybe we’ll make this one green as well and then if we add any more for

Any particular reason which we may or may not be doing then we can do those in a different color yeah let’s do this one green as well so this one’s gonna be a bit trickier to work out so let’s lay out roughly where we want it first we

Can raise it up off the ground afterwards I guess but I think that’s probably going to be big enough it’s enough container but that’s the trick how much big container is it ah that’ll be fine it won’t stand out too much so I guess we need to work out

Where the feet are gonna go which will probably be here and now let’s get this container built up we will remove that bottom layer of green concrete afterwards for now let’s just get it built right well that’s coming along nicely I think we’re going to put a

Doorway here we just got to once again build another platform out the front we’ll follow the same style but it’s on an angle so yep this could be interesting there we go that’s the slightly bigger one in place as well I think the stairs are going to work

Nicely we can easily get up and into storage although obviously at the moment it is not storage it’s just a big empty container as is this one here so I guess we need to make them look nice maybe get them into the landscape and blend it in

A little bit better certainly need to do lots of terraforming around the outside and of course we need to make these look a bit old and knackered because currently they’re just a little bit shiny and new and that’ll never do the question is where do I even begin geez

So I’ve just added a little bit of a roof on these things partly to spawn proof them but also just to give it a bit of variation and to be honest I think she looks a lot better than I expected although I’ve just left floating blocks everywhere let’s go pick

Those up shall we so next up let’s see what we can do to make these things look a little bit older I think texturing is going to be in order what do we got so to mix this up we have some green terracotta we have Moss blocks we have

Green wool we have the green concrete powder and we have some lime terracotta and I guess the green concrete probably fits in somewhere around here and that’s what we’ve built the majority of it out of so this is what we’re going to be using to try and mix it up we’re gonna

Have some darker patches down the bottom we might even have some bits from the top there to make it look like it’s all been raining and drizzling down and it’s getting really dark is it raining no it’s getting dark and and maybe it’s raining as well who knows there we go

That’s better right so where do we want to start if these are the darker ones I feel like we want to have some of these maybe at the top let’s just do a little experiment on this corner shall we so what I’ve established is I can get away

With making stuff lighter but darker is just not really working out too well so I need to see if we can find something that’s gonna go well with the green terracotta there or yeah that is green terracotta isn’t it um I wonder so what I’m wondering is if

We go into storage let’s go have a look at our blocks over here I’m wondering potentially we could use kelp blocks although they do have that white line on them that could be quite annoying but other than that I don’t think there’s really anything that’s green or even

Slightly I mean we could we’re going to get away with that we try some cyan terracotta I don’t think that’s going to work though but there’s not really much else here we can try and use that would be fairly dark all the other green blocks are just way too bright even even

The copper it’s uh yeah the cyan is not gonna work either what other choices are there potentially um nothing I don’t think there’s anything is there I mean Mossy cobble’s gonna be too light as well melons are going to be no good whatsoever okay let’s try it out with a few of these

Kelp blocks I mean worst case scenario we could be a little bit sneaky and potentially put that vanilla Twix thing on that actually removes the string from round kelp blocks I don’t know is that GT maybe maybe not maybe I mean it is a texture change but

It’s only a slight texture change it’s nothing major I mean some people play with different Bedrock textures and all sorts right am I just trying to justify removing the string from the Kelp blocks all right so I’m not really feeling I mean the darkness is nice but those

Lines that is absolutely awful let’s see what it looks like without them so without them I do actually quite like it but the problem is is it too dark now is it 2.1 so let me uh let me see I mean even breaking up some of those lines

Yeah I don’t think this is gonna work plus it does feel a bit cheeky using that resource pack so yeah I think we’re just gonna have to stick with what we’ve got and try and work something out geez anyway enough waffle about this let’s see what I can come up with and

Hopefully when I bring you back in these are going to be looking a little bit better all right so I think that’s working and once we get all the detail on the outside and so on I think that should actually come off quite well I’ve also included a little bit of the cyan

Terracotta and I think that quite works it looks like it’s been patched up and repaired at some point I do quite like the way that has come out however we need to get lots of detailing on these bits and hopefully once we do that and get some foliage around and sort out the

Terrain this should all look quite nice just bear with me I’m sure it’s gonna look fine when we’re done even if it does look a bit janky right now foreign The first container I think it’s looking pretty good I might have embedded it a little bit too much in the landscape considering it’s supposed to be a portable building but I think it works quite well we might strip it back a little bit as we go on it depends

Because we do have other things to put in here we don’t want it to be over detailed but we’ll see how we get on it is of course still empty and we may or may not have had a visitor at some point but we don’t need to discuss that we

Will sort out the interior afterwards but first I think I want to sort out this container as well and just see how they look together as a pair thank you Well I think they’re looking pretty good don’t you I do need a little bit more of this glow like him though I didn’t have any to actually put on this one so I think something else we might actually do is try and squeeze some kind of glow

Like and farm in there but first things first we need to do a few things one has moved the portal but I want to do a little bit more with the landscape first hmm I think maybe I do you know and I think what I want to do is try and get

Up some kind of a retaining wall obviously we have the one here that’s sort of holding back the land but I want to actually sort of Encompass the sort of industrial area itself I guess and maybe even Mark out where the road’s gonna go that’s going to sort of pass in

Front of it all right well that’s looking a bit more like a construction yard instead of just a couple of containers although it’s probably maybe potentially a bit small we might have to expand it a little bit I don’t I don’t really know although I suppose we’ve got plenty of space over

Here for some construction vehicles but we’ll get to that later for now I think what I want to do is sort out the Interiors of these buildings so this one over here what I need to do is actually move the portal it’s really not in a

Composition up there at all and I think what I want to do is actually just put it on this back wall here and I should have some obsidian with me excellent I reckon we can probably get away with just sort of putting it in the gaps in

The walls here and because we’ve got a roof we should be able to take those out as well look at this marvelous and there’s no reason not to take out the floor as well I guess so uh yeah beautiful I think I’m going to be sensible and Destroy This portal first

Because they’re close which means they’re probably gonna link to the same one in the Nether and there’s not gonna be any other portals around here so in theory I shouldn’t need to move the one nether side but I guess this is the only way to find out well let’s hope for the

Best Okay it definitely came out in the same portal geez right let’s get rid of all these at least they’re not creepers I guess it could be worse and it brings us back to the right place too excellent so let’s have a think about this interior shall we I basically need a few

Things in here so I think I’m just gonna have to have a little Potter around for a while and see what I can actually come up with in here to fit I’ll bring you back in once it looks good a short while later and I think we’re actually done so

We have our portal over here on this side on this side here we have just a little bedroom with our bed looking lovely and in the middle here we have our glow like and farm which if I click that and just stand here I can get loads

And loads of like glow like and nice and quickly which is brilliant because we’ve also been using that a bit on the outside because it helps to break up the textures out here just a little bit I’ve also sorted out the storage room over here so I haven’t actually figured out

Where everything is going to go yet we do need a few more frames for some of these boxes as well but there’s plenty of room in here so when we’re actually over here building building our big towers and building up our city we can actually just have this as somewhere to

Store things and work from although I imagine we’re going to be going back to our Mega storage quite regularly as well because well we’re going to be using a lot of stuff this is just for the stuff that’s kind of left over I guess and lastly I’ve also just put a little bit

More foliage around the sort of yard area here as I say we will build some construction vehicles over there but I think that’s going to have to be next episode and lastly I also stuck a couple of those cheeky little pine trees at the back there just because it was looking a

Little bit flat on the skyline but I think that’s a really good start for this area we’ve cleared it all out we’ve got lots of terraforming to do of course and we’ve got a base of operations we can probably do with a couple more trees

And a couple less gaps in the top of that one let me quickly fix that there we go that’s looking better marvelous so next episode we’ll probably do a little bit more work on this yard we’re going to sort out some construction vehicles for over here I’ve just got to figure

Out how to actually build them first so I expect I’m gonna be messing around in Creative for a little while if you have enjoyed this video and one of know what this world is all about then do check out the video on screen now and I’ll see

You in the next one bye-bye now
