Hermitcraft 10: Visual ABOMINATION | Episode 25

With the 1.21 update comes armadillos, and with armadillos comes a scute farm! The solarpunk base gets an expansion with some new aesthetics.
However, it seems the permit office has taken issue with the shopping district nether portal... Now what shall we do about that?...

[@jamesjuld]

If the Permit Office continues to bother you about the portal you can always just hide it under a bunch of scaffolding with signs like "Destruction imminent in the next 3 months" or "in the process of being torn down" etc. And then after a few months you put up new signs: "Construction in the works. Expected completion in 4 months" or so. That way they can't argue about it since it's a process(like Iskall's Apartments xD)

[@chelvo56]

Another step to turn the Hermitcraft government into a real bureaucracy, infinite construction sites!!!

[@ToabyToastbrot]

Just write "Will be done in 3 - maybe 4" - and then don't ever specify 3 or 4 what. days? weeks? months? years?

[@creepyxd815]

​@@ToabyToastbrot I hope that Pearl sees this comment

[@PJOZeus]

Iskalls apartments aren’t within the public communal shopping district and nobody wants that abomination there for 7 months not even pearl Also since cub exists, has not been moving anywhere near that slow

[@ooinvsaoo]

BRO!😂😂

[@LKnivesGaming]

Scar sounding so scandalized while saying "She brought receipts!" is still very funny to me.

[@WackoMcGoose]

He should've realized, they're both government organizations. Pearl knows _exactly_ how the Permit Office thinks.

[@RainMakeR_Workshop]

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? That "bee" has 8 legs... You made an flying arachnid with a stinger.

[@WackoMcGoose]

*_Portal Bee 2000_* _Cost: 12 Blood (literally impossible to summon without a board full of Black Goats or having a Worthy Sacrifice Squirrels totem)_ _Stats: 5 Power, 1 Health_ _Sigils: Annoying (opposing creature gains 1 Power), Repulsive (cannot be attacked), Orbital Strike (attacks ALL lanes), Mighty Leap (you thought you could FLY over it, mate?)_

[@sarahwoodward290]

The ultimate Australian fear 😅

[@RainMakeR_Workshop]

@@sarahwoodward290 Honestly... If a flying spider with a stinger was discovered. I'd expect it to be in Australia.

[@WackoMcGoose]

@@RainMakeR_Workshop I still can't believe they had to _ban an episode of Peppa Pig_ down there because it was about spiders being friends, something you must NEVER teach to Aussie kids.

[@RainMakeR_Workshop]

@@WackoMcGoose I very much *can* believe they had to do that. Makes complete sense since the vast majority of UK spiders are harmless, the worst we get in the UK is the False Widow and Giant House Spider, which can bite, but their venoms are just irritants to humans. But many Aus spiders are far more dangerous and even deadly, especially for a child.

[@NathanTheMan]

This gave my brain an idea, when the actual portal eventually gets built, all of the characters from the current portal can be built somewhere else, walking away from the portal spot using their cursed limbs.

[@bsidethebox]

Would be hilarious to just have them tucked in along the flightpath on the netherroof for some of the long distance destinations, for a nice out-of-the-fog jumpscare. XD

[@sashaKpp]

love the idea

[@recurvestickerdragon]

yeah, make em escape! weird lil guys being scrungly in unexpected places

[@kittyshippercavegirl]

That would be brilliant!

[@toastedbread9752]

Make them slowly migrate to the Permit office

[@GSBarlev]

Pearl: "My mission is to make the portal so absolutely hideous it *wreaks psychic damage* on the server, and _certainly not_ to make it even derpier, cuter, more endearing or nostalgia-inducing" *_Difficulty: Impossible_*

[@WackoMcGoose]

If it helps, it did 20d4 psychic damage to ME. My sanity is currently writing on the floor, "alive but with negative heart points". It's like what happens if you draw limbs on a Polandball, they lose their cuteness and go straight to "co do kurwa cholery?!".

[@Storm_Chaser325]

I feel like the portal should stay now though, its becoming to iconic

[@ohj6557]

lol

[@SgtStuka]

They aren't "Pop-up" Shops, they're micro-shops! Trendy, hip, sleek and stylish. Also I can't wait to see the Hermits reactions to the new SD Portal!

[@bsidethebox]

Minimalist. :)

[@D4rkMidget]

I always figured they were like taco trucks. Mobile shops. And those are not pop up shops at all

[@DirkDwipple]

Aging poser's chill there.

[@theforestofoak]

it's the lap dog of shops

[@recurvestickerdragon]

imagine making hundreds and hundreds of them just dotted throughout the entire shopping district "it's not a lemonade stand, it's a _service._ it's _infrastructure_ now.

[@norman1907]

Put dripstone under the drone so it actually drips water.

[@hedgepaws6625]

ooh yes and it will look like a spout too

[@PotLuckUK]

Those waterlogged grates also dripped and would only take up one block.

[@CieJe.Alexander]

Was looking for this comment. Thank you.💧

[@nikkibrowning4546]

Upvote. Great idea.

[@UNOwen-lo6no]

I thought of this immedtiately when they were talking about improving the drone!

[@DireKestrel]

Suggestion for the watering machine: have a dispenser drop out splash water bottles every so often--it would add movement and a bit of unpredictability to the base. Put a few hoppers around it pointing down and it'll look like the hoppers are sprinkling the crops

[@aztecpatrick]

Everyone like this comment so Pearl sees it!

[@ffwng3992]

8:50 I was thinking dripstone under a waterlogged block (if it still drips) to make the nozzle Tango is talking about. That with the random dispenser would be really neat to see.

[@VanoBlox]

Oh like the flower shop

[@sarahc5608]

She could use fireworks again like in her shop!

[@the-pink-hacker]

Could make it triggered by an observer + daylight sensor

[@fauteuil1046]

I really like the idea of Pearl making the portal more horrifying the more the permit office asks her to fix it. Hopefully it gets even worse!!!

[@MagicCatInABox]

Pearl.. You just gave the skrunkly nether portal guys even more personality. Now it is gonna be even harder to say goodbye to them, eventually

[@kennyholmes5196]

If I may, Pearl, I would recommend making the Fern and Lillypad Shop one large shop that is a forest (fern-selling section) encrusting a pond or on the edge of a river/swamp/mangrove delta (lilly-pad-selling section). That way, it'd be almost like you're growing them on-site.

[@UNOwen-lo6no]

Yes! Great idea! Also, this all could be the terrain around the flower shop, it would fit in very well! She mentioned some time ago that she wants to do some terrafotming around it, and this could be a really nice two-in-one.

[@masterimbecile]

7:03 for the small drone, maybe the waterlogged copper grates will drip water down and achieve what you wanted to show the drones sprinkling water?

[@vixengypsy]

The fact that you're just trying to have fun, while interpreting the Permit Office's request, is why I'm here! I love the bright, horrifying & cute portal designs, Pearl!

[@GoldAndBlue]

I love the chaos that Pearl brings.

[@L-wberg]

Suggestion: How about removing the big propeller and adding a balloon instead? Keep the smaller ones for steering and then add the ballon to make it float. Feels kinda solarpunk and somehow calmer than propellers. Love the build!

[@GoldAndBlue]

I cannot stop laughing at Pearl's attempt to procrastinate on the shopping district portal by making it look atrocious. 😂 And I'm glad the bone shop stayed put!

[@emilyrattini8462]

The segment with Tango put a massive smile on my face. You two have a wonderful dynamic

[@Cal_Night]

same!! i love how much they appear in each other's videos and streams :D

[@VanoBlox]

Yes we need Tango & Pearl in the next life series

[@freshcupofangst]

Same

[@-FutureTaken-]

The new portal feels like it was pulled straight out of the build swap days; there is no rhyme or reason to it whatsoever and I love it

[@BrittBerg]

Watching the wheat grow during the timelapse was so satisfying

[@Pickle_Juice_Studios]

I see pearl is doing her part to make the server more beautiful than ever! 🙂 But the hermits calling that so called “portal” a decent pearl build is insulting. 😔 Can’t wait to see their reaction this time… he he he… 😏

[@PromptCriticalJello]

They aren't cute. They are ugdorable.

[@Stormageddon2015]

It’s horrible

[@tinycandleman6020]

Armor stands, Pearl! They can add so much more detail to the robots, especially now that you can change sizes. Maybe iron ingots for propellers, or a few armor stands with blocks to make a small spout for water. You could even add small armor stands holding copper blocks as little rivets or screws on the robot. Absolutely love your style this season!

[@Foxzen_]

The Shopping District portal needs some screaming goats hidden inside it!

[@boardomes]

Really loved the new additions to the base, it creates such a cozy vibe. Each part of the building is different, but it goes perfectly together. The machines bring life and sound, as Tango said, to a seemingly simple wheat farm.

[@ZachieChan7]

Pearl is my favorite hermit. She's hilarious, adorable, and creative. Her editing style and her videos are like a storyline that's extremely entertaining and fun! Her building style is unique and... circle lol. Pearl's color pallet is as fancy as Bdub's. She is one of the more innovative hermits, coming up with brand new designs and ideas... so she's smart like Etho. And she seems to make the most out of every hermit interaction too so. Pearl is my favorite 😅

[@PerryRata]

Dear god Pearl. This is just using your beautiful building prowess for pure evil; flipping everything on its head to make monstrosities

[@joosh8791]

25:42 the new and updated portals remind me of the characters from spy kids 1 that are children's drawings come to life

[@sambloomquist1626]

The portal screams Bugsnax to me! Love your videos Pearl, I'm a bit of a "hermit" myself (don't really get out often), seeing you have fun with your friends brings me so much joy

[@caevor523]

A couple building ideas for the watering drones - where do they get the water from? Is there a water tank or lake where they refill? Do they have a place to rest during downtime? I’d personally suggest adding a water tank that connects to the drones with a hose (at least the big drone), as water is really heavy. It seems the drones have the primary benefit of precision and automation, so also what does the smaller one do vs the bigger one? Maybe it could detect soil hydration levels and make minute water drizzles to get the plants within the correct hydration range. I really love the field and the scute farm, they make the area very beautiful!! Thank you so much for making all the videos you do, they really destress my days and make me very happy!

[@crazytiger6]

This video came out in between when I checked KZbin for new videos, and when I started reading my discord, so I wouldn’t have seen this video if it weren’t for my being in pearl’s discord

[@freshcupofangst]

Loving the portal saga omg. Keep doubling down until the permit office has to take it down themselves!!

[@Random_bsfl]

Pearl scared scar so much and it had me laughing so hard when I first saw the clip 😅

[@ankereisenman4824]

There hasn’t been much in the way of silly pranks this season, I’m glad Pearl is doing this!

[@wreckmaster5183]

9:50 Pearl!!! It would be nice to see more overviews of your build when you're done building a new building.what you did just there is really nice and I'd love to see more of it

[@brujosol]

I think what disturbs me most about the new portal build is the 8-legged bee. Those two extra legs are unnerving me. The idea of a flying, stinging spider! All that being said, it is the cutest little disturbing spidabee I ever did see!

[@dawntreader1247]

2:43 pearl you can put them in as an extension to the flower shop area! make a nice little botanical street

[@waldzwerg7814]

Good idea. Or a small well for the lilly pad permit.

[@Tunality]

Boost bc this would be so cute and tie in super well!!

[@madmanmax120]

With the shopping district portal, you should just do what everyone is experimenting with now and that is colour gradients. Next time people complain just add a bunch of texture and shading to make it look 🌟beautiful🌟

[@claire7657]

I’m pretty sure the orange guy needs a doctor. He looks to have had an allergic reaction 😂

[@justinsmith5870]

The shopping portal is turning in a circus fun house. Which could bee 🐝 a use for it later in the gaming district, maybe parkour race involving breeze balls and launchers.

[@nursinggeekgames8242]

I adore your armadillo farm! I was lazy and just put mine in with my sniffers. Now you have me thinking about other possibilities. The portal does, indeed, look hideous, and the bee is absolutely adorable. So glad to see Cub approves of these improvements.

[@AreJayMC]

That portal is my new favorite build style ... deranged circus mini putt course type thing. i love it.

[@BobOgden1]

Perl, that yellow coral on the tree makes it look like wattle This here's the wattle, the emblem of our land. You can stick it in a bottle, you can hold it in your hand. Crack toobs (Monty Python) Also, maybe some buttons made from mangrove to use as warts on the portal monsters?

[@stormzero2214]

Pearl should add a landing bay in the side of the mountain for her drones.

[@PJOMincrafterhp]

Ooh that would look cool with like a misson control building type thing

[@JaqenHghar.]

For your watering copter you could maybe throw in a cherry blossom thing so that the particles sprinkle down over the crops

[@Greesher]

5:43 Tango is too humble 😂 denying being a good builder after that absolutely unreal blimp

[@GSBarlev]

Tango's airship: Hermit tested, snail approved 🐌 👍

[@chrisdierking5108]

The new portals are fantastically hideous (or hideously fantastic). I would love to see Pearl doing more Guess the Build videos. She absolutely rocked it for Gamer's Outreach.

[@Halleaon]

I feel like now would be a good time to start one of those annoying chain letters via the mail to another hermit, where they must forward it to another hermit or else be 'cursed' within a certain time limit. Queue filling their base with armadillos name 'Scooter' if they fail to forward the letter. Whoever had the letter last gets to pick the 'curse' 'for the next victim of the chain letter. The chain only stops once all hermits have at some point had the letter and passed it on.

[@alliyanasgalaxies]

I think ren will be thankful for that

[@Defensive_Dwarf]

15:51 is my new favorite hermit noise Also, for the robot, using armor stands for the water spout might be pretty cool

[@dbseamz]

She should add noteblocks to the portal critters so they make noises like that.

[@XanOdd]

Under your drone, if you do one single stained glass pane, then go over and down, place another, go over and down, etc. You can add motion to your drone as it looks like it's dropping sprinkles of water. Or, if stained glass is too subtle, you can do candles instead for a similar effect.

[@ltskai]

5:58 They remind me of the drone in “the farmer was replaced” ! Very well done!! 22:51 Rut row

[@ghosting943]

22:57 this feels like watching the cute plushies from fnaf slowly form into the nightmare animatronics. this is like, spooky.

[@waldzwerg7814]

Solarpunk is such a cool concept, genre and philosophy.

[@wmmsi]

Love the solar-punk theme… for your watering drone you could add glass panes like rain drops (similar to how Scar’s technique)

[@duvalfamily4605]

Sorry to tell you, but I think the portal is still kinda cute -- especially the bee and the green guy! Can't wait to see their reactions!

[@matrickjohnson6246]

The reveal that there was a portal in the little dude's mouth caught me quite off-guard. Thanks for the genuine chuckle!

For the water sprayer, maybe armor stand a blue choral upside down to show the spray coming out the bottom. I don't know if having a water source will help it stay alive or if it can even stay alive while on the armor stand though.

[@Arugma]

What if this with @DireKestrel which is like 2 comments below and you add those two?

[@auntiex5343]

Or put the blue coral on the bottom of a water logged copper grate?

[@whitetrash8613]

Blocks on armor stands are not actually placed so they don't update. Basically: a coral doesn't need water, it will survive

Can you place pointed dripstone under trap doors?? Because if so that's awesome (and also *broken* for the purposes of traps)

[@addamek09]

Scar's and Skizz's reaction at the recording was one of the best moments. I know it's just for fun but sometimes POE POE really seem like an abusive authority, so it was super satisfying that you showed them their place

I think the term you're looking for Pearl is "Horrifyingly Cute"

[@kristerlarsson4633]

Love the builds. For the first time ever I have a suggestion to improve a build. That is to turn the wheels 90 degrees on the watercopter. Or move them to the corner of the copter, below the trapdoors. Currently the copter looks to be wider than it is long, and that makes it look a little bit strange.

[@holtster3797]

So... @ 6:10 when Tango makes the amazing propeller sound. Pearl It would be great to clip the noise but add a little reverb and tune the pitch just a smig higher. That would be such a great sound for the robots. lol Also totally agree with Tango about the copper rods. With some glass work ie: like scar has on his power lines the robots would be that much better but just a suggestion thats totally not needed because they are beautiful as is too.

[@santacrisostomo7679]

[@abigailm761]

I'm not fully through the video yet, so if this was suggested in video, awesome, but Pearl, you could get some blue/cyan fireworks to go off every now and again, like you did in the flower shop. That could make it look like it's spraying water.

[@OneLeatherBoot]

@PearlescentMoon A potential addition to your solar drones. A couple of mini drones like you already made (with arms) collecting your copper grate coral "fruit" from a forested area and storing them on the back of a hover flatbed ute. Bonus points for different colour coral to indicate ripeness. In terms of blades, can you extend the upper chains, then add a trap door, or horizontal hanging sign on the ends? Love your builds.

[@macandcheech2173]

Time to ask Cub for a Dog Armor permit and make a bunch of different dyed armors. Wolfstreet would eat that up.

[@meisteryogurt1460]

One way to add to the drone design is to look at the underside of a real car - it isn't just a flat plane with four wheels sticking out of it, it has axles, pipes and differentials everywhere. So to add interest one could place some blocks that simulate this visual and geometric "noise" - pistons, droppers, copper rods, walls etc. That, in ym eyes, is the beauty of machine engineering - a well constructed machine all in itself looks so good and interesting that it doesn't need any extra decorations. Also, I don't know if that's what Tango meant, but I would absolutely love to see a curving rain trail of light blue glass panes behind the drone, just to indicate it's function.
