Please tell us more about your FAVOURITE and PROUDEST build:
I’m probably most proud of my large-scale fox build as it came out exactly as I had envisioned it. I’m very happy with how I sculpted it with world edit and then coloured it, making it look very realistic. Additionally, I just had a lot of fun throughout the whole process, and it gave me a lot of confidence by the end. I’m also very proud of my village spawn, it took quite a while and I’m not very confident with terrain but was especially excited over how it turned out. Trees are also not a strong point for me, so it was good practise for me. For both the builds, I also put thought into the block palettes.
How experienced are you with World Edit, Voxel and other building plugins?:
I’d say I’m quite experienced with World Edit. I’m very confident with the basics and am able to perform commands with different selection types when necessary. I’m also confident with different brushes. I’m not confident with Voxel and I don’t really use it however I am very open to learning how to properly use it. I also like to use gopaint for colouring my builds, and from time to time, I use gobrush to assist with landscaping.
Describe your build specialty and weaknesses (detailing, terraforming, structures, etc.):
My speciality would probably be animal organics; I really enjoy the flexibility and freedom that can come with building animals. By this, I mean, I can create situations that can convey different meanings and use extreme colour palettes and unique blocks for my builds. Essentially, I can make it as abstract as I’d like. I really like using vivid, bold colours and gradients and think I’m skilled in doing so. I also think I’m decent at structures. My weakness is probably terraforming, I tend to struggle with making the terrain look how I want it to. I’m also not particularly good at trees for some strange reason, but I am seeking improvement.
What is your history of building? If applicable, which build teams and/or servers have you worked for in the past?
I currently have no experience working with other build teams or servers but I think everyone has to start somewhere.
On a scale of 1-10, how well do you work with others? Please expand upon in your answer:
I think about an 8. I’m very open to hearing other people’s ideas and working together to reach the best outcome possible. I find it very helpful to have other people to bounce your ideas off of and to share each other’s creative moments of inspiration with. In addition, I just enjoy being in the company of others in general and it helps when building has been ongoing for a while.
Have you applied for Builder before? If so, what was your reason for denial? How have you looked at improving since?
I haven’t applied before.
