This video is sponsored by Nvidia.
Grian is working with PearlescentMoon to teach you how to make MEGA builds in minecraft. There are many ways to make one, but if you are thinking about making a big minecraft base, this tutorial will give you step by step instructions on how to undertake such a huge project - or you can just watch us make one!

That thing about "Don't think about the name of the block, just think about its color and texture" is amazing advice for me. That's my main problem with building.

Thank you grain for giving us the video, it will help me a lot to built megabases, keep doing what you love.

[@Oh-Ho-Hello]

I know its been a long while, but heres som advice for anyone (like me) who struggle w motivation 1 set timers/pressures. This can range from an actual timer, a friend/friends to keep company and accountable, or even something as simple as self imposed pressures. do note if these pressures begin to seriously stress you, you should step away and take a break. Its a block game thats meant to be fun and relaxing, not a secondary job meant to burn you out. 2 set mini-goals for your build. Using an example from my own current project of a megabase dragon roost, I didn't build it all at once. I started with just the center piece, then pathways, then the larger details before anything massive. Setting more smaller goals makes the actual process of building much more manageable and digestible. Realistic and smaller goals are always the way to go. 3 Prepare to cope with uncertainty/build anxiety. Its entirely normal to feel anxious and uncertain while building, but many people can feel too anxious and indecisive to continue. If this occurs, it's important to take a break, step back, and relax. You should not force yourself if you aren't enjoying it. To help with uncertainty, it can help to draw it out, plan with others, and even create a duplicate creative world to plan ahead of time. Uncertainty is normal, but not invincible. Take time for yourself, plan ahead, and go in again. Its normal to be anxious, and tearing it down is normal and part of the process. tldr: dont force yourself, set manageable goals, create pressures, and plan ahead

7:23 oh but i do also this video gave me just enough determination to build a megabase in the form of a massive spike going upward and downward into the terrain and i picture it to look like one of Flowey's "friendliness pellets"

This really helped with a build I’m doing on a modded smp with my friends it’s a giant igloo (97 block diameter) but it’s still not done due to the amount of snow I need but it’s helped me realise some of The details I will probably upload a tour after it’s done

The advice here actually applies really well to smaller projects. The over-arching theme seems to be Start at the Macro Scale, then work smaller and smaller to add detail. Rather then trying to act like a build printer and crank it out at full detail from the start

[@agniumxv1692]

the perfect analogy for this is- its basically you doing art on your digital canvas. if you're one of the artists who start with a Bubble, a line and a cross, then you start to make it from there. i might need to start to understand creativity in building to make beautiful bases at all.

[@00mokole82]

For those who love seeing Pearlescentmoon’s building skills she has a KZbin and Twitch channel. Started watching her when Grian had the Evo SMP. Thanks for the intro to her Grian. You are both MEGA builders.

[@willbradford4575]

Having visited Mont Saint-Michel, I can confirm that it is every bit as impressive, mega, and absolutely breathtaking as you could imagine. It's like the Disney castle, but cooler and actually exists in real life. The tides at the castle are some of the most extreme in the world, which actually results in the castle becoming an island at high tide, but not low tide. At low tide, you can walk across the mudflats from the mainland to the castle, but at high tide the only way there is a boat (ignoring the modern bridge that's been built for tourists). They say that when the tide comes in, it's faster than a galloping horse. There are stories of soldiers that found themselves out on the mudflats right as the tide started to come in who were unable to outrun the water, and drowned.

I play 100% survival and build giant cathedrals and others. Most is eyeballed (no real crative planning before). My best tip would be to get the floor plans and learn to read those plans. Having this done, the rest flows easy. Take your time. That is how i do the mega build. Survival does it all.
