The car that I have the real cool bathroom I can begin to a council much help how’s it going everyone and today we are back in Minecraft and I don’t actually guys have been watch it or not but Game of Thrones Season seven just died and The first episode at the very end it shows off the Targaryen stronghold and I thought what a perfect thing to take into Minecraft and build so in the episode there shows an image a quick image of the islands layout so what you can see as I’m doing this right now you Can see me going around and just starting to map out the landscape trying to make it as soon as I can to the one that’s on the map and once I’ve done that I’ll begin extruding upwards and terraforming the mountains so as you can see here I’m starting the front of the Island and this is where the entrance will be so these are two mountains on either side and then a little beat to the front and as I come up to the main part of the islands there’s going to be a bridge way which leads all the way up It sneaking up the side of the rocks now as you can see the visuals are going to be created and sorry about that there’s not much I can do because it’s such a large project and my character he loads in a certain amount of chunks for the World so where you see it clipping off the map like that off the screen that’s not much I can do about that so sorry but that’s going to happen So now that I’ve done the base terraforming time I flattened off the top of the island so I can start to build the actual castle itself the stronghold the Targaryen stronghold and I’m just using some pink wool at the moment to map out and plan how I want The build filling to be what shape I want it to be and how I wanted to sit on the island itself I don’t want it to be flat into this I want to work it in so that it kind of forms and fit into the island itself Now this is an extremely weird shape as it is anyway so the planning itself took a long time but I think that’s one of the more important things you can do before starting any kind of project make sure you plan it out know what you’re doing in your head and then it makes Life a whole lot easier so as you can see I’m just replacing where I’ve planned out with some stone brick this project is going to look very gray right up until the end of this video because I’ve worked with gravel and stone for the terraforming and now I’m using stone Brick for the actual building it looks very great but trust me it won’t look so great at the end so I’m building this up this is just creating the outer wall I believe it’s 35 blocks tall it might be 40 bucks 2 latches and then I work up From there in a second and make it even taller just adjusting at the back there stretching out the castle itself so now I’m starting to work on the crenellations and the detail of the castle walls the problem is when I looked at the reference images a lot of The castle was just very flats which in Minecraft doesn’t look too good so I had a kind of a tough time working out the detail but I decided in the end to take what I could and I just add a little bit more detail into it so it’s Not picture-perfect to the actual build but it’s pretty similar and then along with adding in different materials such as some polished diorite into the bills it definitely helps break it up and make it look a little bit less flat now once I’ve done these correlations and details I do it around the entire build and now I’m just starting to flatten off the top of the castle itself now the problem is with this build is you don’t get a lot of reference images from the first episode of season 7 so I’m just having To work with what I’ve got so the advice is to flatten off the entire top of it with stone brick and now you can just start to see me planning out and mapping out the buildings that are going to go and place on top of this level Mapping out in different colors that I know which towers been going to build and where they’re going to roughly be and I’m doing a similar thing to provide it with the walls of the castle and I’m just building out by 20 blocks by doing a lip on it and then continuing upwards Into the sky I mimicked pretty similar details and translations from the walls and all of them having those peaks on the corners of the building now for most of this I didn’t use well that it only got right up until I was doing the big stuff like the Terraforming and the flattening off the top of the castle there apart from that I didn’t really use much world at it so this was very time-consuming going around and replacing each layer with that certain block I could have done it with other which would have made my life A lot easier but in the end I decided to stick with it and just try and build up as much as I can by hand so now I just come around to the back here and I’m starting to build up the back to towers to little sticking out lips of the build And it’s again very similar to the other parts of the building on the top here i type the decided to do another level to it so this continues up was just on the inside of it again copying the similar design that I’ve got on the walls around the rest of the castle Now I’ve come down to the final yellow planned-out area and this is just going to be a little lips another one that’s kind of very similar to the other designs it’s going to look at the back just giving it one that one extra level of the back there just fill out that Space now as I come around the side here we’re going to start to work on the separate buildings on either side of these powers now again it’s all very flat and bare on the actual build and get to castle in the episode so I really had to mess around with some design and Trying to mix in different types of stone and stuff to make it look not so black and that’s the biggest problem that I have this bill is making it not look all just very great after all is a stronghold so there’s not much you can do about that so I married onto the Other side and now we’re coming through to the last section of the building on top and these each has little support beams on the outside which I wanted to add some detail in and bring it over the top of the roof and then finally bringing out the final section of this Building and then once I’m done copying pasting it over to the other side The We basically finished the cast and I want to come back to the front of the island because we’re going to start to build these entrances now this actually was quite a lot of fun I was messing up designs if you look at images and from the episodes they have two dragon heads Out the side of the entrance and so I started messing around with some designs and decided what I wanted and how I wanted to fit on the little plinth and once I was happy with the design I copied and pasted it over to the other side so that it matches again coming up Here and just adding some detail to the towers and then making a wall that goes into the cliff face itself and now I’m just working on a little entranceway to get up to the doorway itself where the dragons are doing a few little touch-ups here and there some terraforming on the beach Which you can just see in the bottom corner and then finally I come up and finish the door of the entrance now with the other side of the wall and I want to start working on the pathway the the winding road that leads all the way up To the castle doors now this again it’s not too difficult as long as you keep it pretty symmetrical which is obviously difficult to do when it’s not that simple I wanted to keep a three-wide gap for the entire pathway around and I just kind of snaked it up the hill and around The little cliff faces and the edges where I wanted to sit then once I then I brought it all the way down to the ground and then finally filled it in with some cobblestone and and carefully went up as it spiraled up the cliff face Now we pretty much done with most of it I wanted to make the castle itself flesh in with the island a bit more so I start to do a little bit more terraforming building up the cliff faces making it look a little bit more like the images Just working around to make it look a little bit more natural rather than just having it sit on the flat island on top Once that was done I finally went over with a few little touches to give it a bit more depth and detail to the mountain so I went around and added in some diorite and andesite in stone so that it gives it a little bit more shape To the cliff faces itself and once I’ve done that I just went around with the mixed dirt and grass and added it to the cliff face edges just to give that get rid of a little bit of that gray and give it a bit more coloring to it also Adding in some sand around by the beaches there and just at the bottom of the cliff faces and that was about it [Applause] [Applause] Anyway that just about wrap things up for this video I hope that you guys enjoyed it and were pleased with the result I think I was pleased with the result it came out pretty damn good looking if I do say so myself blow my own trumpet but hope you guys Enjoyed and if you did that make sure you like the video and share it around with all of your mates and I will see you in the next video of whatever it is that I decide to do bye Video Information
