For #4, I recommend having 7 snow layers underneath so that the torso isn't visible. Also, for #18, you can place a barrier above, swap the helmet for a mob head and vice versa, and make the helmet armor stand invisible. Then, with a command, you can give the invisible stand levitation so that the helmet will not overlap with the mob head.

#24 you can also use composters as a substitute for trees, as long as you make sure that you don't make it angled or else from above it looks like the tree has a gap.

0:26 can i just tell you how much u appreciate the fact the slabs are arranged in rainbow order as they float on the ground?

[@fnafplayer6447]

Something I like to do in the linear pattern is using slabs and stairs and buttons to give even more detail to walls

[@VoltisArt]

Wooden buttons also make good decorative joints and fasteners in wood or mixed-material structures.

9:29 I sometimes did this with cauldrons filled with water hanging over a campfire on a chain, to portray a large stew/soup pot cooking over a fire in kitchen or campfire builds.

[@creeperjo7]

FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE FOUND THE USEFULNESS OF STRUCTURE VOIDS! Theyre just barrier blocks but you can go through them, so can arrows, untested but i also assume potions. so in creative instead of using barrier blocks or string to detail those cobble walls, place a structure void on it instead, it turns invisible, and is walk through able.

[@creeperjo7]

@Galaxy cosmo I think it’s /give @s structure_void

[@rexxgorzzz]

I found this out yesterday: If you put string on walls in bedrock it turns the walls into vertical slabs. I honestly never knew that until yesterday.

Don't understand why water breathing arrows, arrows of strength, etc. get such a bad rap. If you play on bedrock, you can make an entire stack of tipped arrows from a single cauldron, making it super cheap to give yourself effects. (Just make sure to not use a powerful bow on yourself)

[@az1202]

I use structure voids all the time! If you didn’t know, it’s like a barrier you can walk through. ( so it has a hit box when placing blocks meaning you can place, say a lantern on it but you can walk through it. So, floating blocks “without” invisible blocks!

[@stupidforever256]

I have used the beehive technic before and I also suggest any other function blocks like smokers for chimney tops, blast furnaces for a hard rock floor, beehive tops or bottoms for a roof or a floor, upside down barrels for flooring, normal furnaces for walls or floors, we can also use the side texture of the beehives for walls and etc. Every function blocks have a building designs.
