My current project.

Introduction.

Over the next few months (how many I am not sure) I aim to complete my new project that I am working on.

It is a 25 realm natural looking island.

Images.

The 1st image gives some sort of an idea as to what I have planned.

The 2nd image attached shows a rough idea of the plans, and how many credits I project I will earn.

Plan.

The black area on the image will be the main body of the island with dense forests, also there will be a volcano :)

The red area is going to be used to define the shape of the island, including beaches and a docking area.

The yellow area is the area I intend to buy by the end of the project to protect the ocean around the island and keep it as an island.

The green area is the area I will purchase if I decide to expand the island in the future.

Now for the "fun" part, I am hollowing the initial 25 realms (the black area) from sea level to bedrock. Earning me the credits as displayed in the right of the image if my math is correct.

In this hollowed 25 realm area is going to be stacked farms of all kinds, including sheep, cows, chickens, pigs, wheat, melon, pumpkin, carrot, potato and nether wart (I think that's all of them).



*yes before you ask it was drawn up in paint, got a little bit bored*

Progress report 1.

First 15 realms have had 2 high base layer of cobble. Laying the foundations for the island to build upon. Starting to hollow out underneath the first 5. (as cobble has started running low)

I have like 4 double chests. I could sell you a couple for not too much. Message me in game if you want.

Thanks for the offer, I think I will have enough cobble from hollowing the realms.

I'm not sure if I am going to be asking for help or keep it a solo project yet, I'll keep you in mind if I decide to ask for help.

Also: Edit to Progress Report 1 as follows, filling in 5 realms worth of water before I can start hollowing. Kinda forgot about that part.

Good luck with that project. But 25 hollowed realms for farms? That's massive overkill. You could put everything you'd ever need in 4 realms.

I have literally no idea how long this is going to take, or how smoothly everything will run. I will be updating this thread every so often so people can see the progress.

Well it's about 25 realms so i say it would be quite timely and would take you about 3-4 weeks give or take.

3-4 weeks, assuming how many hours a day?
25 hours/day xD
