I'm currently working on building a scale model of the maltese falcon. For scale im using 1block = 2.84 feet. I came up with this conversion by figuring that my avatar in the game is 2 blocks high and the average height of a male is 5'10''... Seems to be a pretty good scale to use when converting real life objects, there will be more than enough room inside.
The **** has been completely built in-game: However in order to build this in alpha i did need to import some chests with blocks in them - I have not done any inventory hacks.
When the hull was completed in wood i used MCedit to replace the tree trunks with obsidian to give it the black hull.
More details coming soon, just wanted to post this up.
im probably about 8+ hours into this.... I was looking for someone that built a mega yacht just to see what it would look like... and it seems nobody has done it!
I plan on finishing up the captains deck tonight along with the aft deck and then im going to start work on the sails. The 3 main floors are in place now but no walls or rooms have been put up. Framework first!
The sails im going to do out of wool just to make them stand apart from the masts themselves.
Anyone know if the unusable colored cloth blocks work in alpha? i see them in the map editor but ive never tried using them.... If i could pop them in it could help make this look better.
Masts are up and sails are somewhat done - Still plan on fleshing them out to bow with the wind and increasing the length of them toward the middle of the mast (they are very boxy right now due to my limited scafolding)

Fixed the spelling mistake - Also new images up. the bridge is fleshed out, stair case goes down to the bottom floor and is encased with glass.
