Build a Dragon Ball statue in Minecraft?

Post by ShadowDude112 » Thu Jan 27, 2011 9:33 pm

So, as we all know, Minecraft is a massive game and full of creativity and the idea popped into my head that people on Daizex who have Minecraft can go into a server that we created or something and build a statue of something Dragon Ball related. It's not a one man task and if it was, it would take several hours or possible days or weeks. So, I was wondering if anyone was interested in this idea. We could even go on Skype so we can chat while we build instead of using the text since voice would be easier. Personally, I'd love to do this if we all put some effort into it. So, who's with me?

Although I don't have the time, I like the idea.
But I would like to stress that the statue mustn't take a long time. Especially if you are making a statue of a Dragonball.
And it depends on the following factors:

- Head, bust of full figure statue?
- Which character (with the spiky hairs of the Saiyajin being the hardest)
- The size of the statue
- The details (as in, which kind of materials to use, how many differing kinds of materials, ect)
- One or more characters?

Then you would also need to draw a detailed sketch so everyone knows what to do, and what their job is. Otherwise it would lead to chaos.

I hope I helped a little bit, though, and good luck!

- It would have to be one character. That's what I had in mind.
- I kind of wanted to do maybe the Sûshinchû.
- If I did do a character, it'd be the head. Probably Goku since he's the most recognizable but that would be a lot of work so, it probably won't be a character unless the people involved are really dedicated to making one.
- The size won't be that big. Not sure how small it would be but I know it'd be the size of a tree from Minecraft or a bit smaller.
- I'm not sure about the details though.
- I can't draw for my life so, unless someone will refresh my drawing to make it neat, I'd have to show them where in Minecraft that we can build.

Thanks, Godo. Hopefully, this project will actually get started. I think it would be awesome.

Jeff and I have been playing a ton of Minecraft... I haven't dipped into any multiplayer yet, though...

If anyone wants to take up the task of hosting and securely running a server, I'd love to have a central Dragon World that folks contribute to :D.

I've played on a server and it was awesome. I would love if we could make "The Official Daizenshuu EX Minecraft Server" I think whoever did that would be cool!

I spent a long time on a server until recently, it just doesn't work, if you build something it will either be destroyed by people or by creepers. Setting up protection is too hard and messes with everything.

We won't build something this big. But, it shows what you can do in Minecraft.
