Minecraft Battle Ship: The Bismarck

Holy crap, this is an epic build. It's a 1:1 replica of the famous battleship Bismarck. Click the image for a larger copy.

The Water Garden

The reason it looks so great is obviously the great build but also:

The mod is Sonic Ethers GLSL shadows and the texture pack is the Mithrintia build server texture pack. You can find links to both on my Planetminecraft page for this build 

Minecraft Power Station

Reactor Outside

This is a TNT fueled power station

Power Station Front

It is located next to a small town

Reactor inside

The key is to convert a TNT explosion into stable redstone current

Control Panel

All the functions of the Reactor are controlled from here

Fuel Store

A cobblestone generator is used to push the TNT through a series of pistons then into the reactor

Power Generator

The exploding TNT pushes the cart enough to start it rolling down the incline, when it hits the detector rail current is generated and the cart is returned to the top for the next explosion.

Reactor Shield on

Water shielding protects the building structure from the explosions.

Reaction in progress

Fuel injector

Fuel is delivered by the pistons to the top of the reactor, when it hits the redstone current it falls in

Power Transformer

The power is generated in pulses, by feeding it through these repeaters i can get a steady output

The Final Result

Of course I could have just used a redstone torch and got the same result - but that is not as fun.

8 million TNT sphere explosion

WOW that's a lot of TNT, check this minecraft animated gif out

Beautiful Realistic Minecraft Castle

This fantastic Minecraft mountain looks great and about as realistic as Minecraft gets. Not so sure about the lens flare though

Floating Castle

This one's really epic and dreamlike though that could just be the vasolene smeared on the camera lens...Love the endless waterfall, though.

Floating Castle

Enormous Colourful Minecraft Castle

This one is a nice minecraft castle, almost reminiscent of some Russian architecture. The nice thing about this is how it fits in with the landscape, and feels more natural as a result

Now this is what The Minecraft Castle is all about: big castles, epic builds, crazy rooms and NINE MONTHS to complete! Enjoy the pictures from this beauty of a castle.

Magnificent Medieval Minecraft Castle

 Look at this thing, it's an absolute beauty. It looks a bit like an English boarding school.

Minecraft Castle at night

The castle takes on a bit of a haunted feel at night. A bit Harry Potter-esque

The great hall

Which segues us nicely into the Harry Potter-themed hall
