    This video is great! I am always looking for concepts of how to build and not block by block tutorials. The depth of history and concepts behind the arches was perfect!

    Your videos on gothic architecture in Minecraft have been the most informative and best put together videos on gothic architecture I have been able to find, period.
    Thank you for putting these together.

    You're a talented builder. You take a block world and make it look amazing. My church basically looks like a salt box (blox) with a couple of square pointed towers. Going to tear it down and build one like you did. Good job on the glass too.

    I love this! I didn’t expect to find a tutorial for this subject at all, so I was already happy, and the explanation of why the features were developed and how they work was a wonderful bonus. Thank you for taking the time to make this! I’m excited to check out your other videos and try to implement the lessons in my builds

    I love the interior!
    But there are some things I would like to point out.
    1. The blocks suggest that the vaulting is made of fan arches, which is not substantial for a standard roof like this, and perhaps only for a singular crossing. Besides, the centre of a fan arch wouldn't really be a flat surface.
    2. The use of two pillars in the arcade corresponding to one arch in the clerestory means that the pillar in the centre of each arch needs to have a rib in the vaulting as well, and cannot be neglected. A good example of this is the vaulting in the Notre Dame.
    3. You do need buttresses along the main clerestory as well, and not only for vertically supporting the flying buttresses. Putting a flying buttress directly against a flat clerestory wall will inevitably cause it to collapse inward, and therefore there must be a thick buttress there.
    4. The apse and ambulatory might wanna be a bit more protruding, as you see in most northern european cathedrals. An example of this would be the cologne cathedral, which has a few pillars in the arcade for the choir before it gets to the apse.
    Otherwise, its a pretty great explanation of the gothic style! I'm quite perfectionistic, thus the comment, but its a great build for something so quick.

      Fair enough! Thanks for the comment and additional information! I never claimed to have a perfect understanding of architecture haha. I'm mostly self taught with books I find at the library.
      Having the clerestory be twice the size of the aisles is honestly for convenience for building in Minecraft. Otherwise you have to deal with some funny looking angles. But yes, they are a bit big and I acknowledge that.
      Good to know about the buttresses needed for the clerestory where the flying buttresses meet up as well. I honestly didn't know that and I will endeavor to add that to future builds. I did know about the apse needing to come out more. I excluded the choir. Poor choir. Thanks for the info! I'm always looking to improve my knowledge!

    I learned so much. As a 48 yr old Minecrafter I am maybe your crustiest subscriber, but this video was just what I was looking for. Can't use World Edit on my Xbox but I will do all those arches the long, hard way and build the cathedral of Steve's dreams!

    Perfect speed, clear speech, explanations of why, and demonstration where there is so much room for everyone to make it their own and build entire cities with various building shapes and sizes using your tutorial. This video was perfect in every single way. Subscribing and looking forward to learning from you.

    Hey awesome video! I just came back from vacations on Spain and I head back to play minecraft, then due to all the Gothic churches and cathedrals I saw in Spain I decided to build one in minecraft and I truly found this helpful! Keep it up awesome content, I'm no architect but I've always loved their work regarding Gothic architecture... Anyway, thank you and I just subscribed!

  • @darthterror2840
    @darthterror2840 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Such a great video. I love gothic architecture and I love your builds. I also like how you gave us just enough to do the basic structure and then let us build from that. I might’ve gotten lazy and just copied your build, brick for brick…but this way, I’m inspired to get really creative, especially with the nice design ideas, like on the spires. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos.

    i don't see myself making gothic buildings much, but i do like this series of videos! it's neat to learn about the architectural terms, and i might be able to incorporate some of the advice into my own builds less directly. in particular, it's really helpful to know that a build can look good with a boring roof!

    • @shells124
      @shells124  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      While technically possible, clone only does so much and is kind of a pain to use. It has a block limit that is depressingly low and you have to insert individual coordinates for everything. But yes. It is an option. Just not a great one.

    This is why quarter size building blocks are needed, just for buildings. Otherwise buildings like this forts and castles always look of scale with everything else. I'm okay with the fill and clone command mind you clone has its moods. Must get up to speed with copy/ paste. Your good I'd be still looking at my first block scratching my head. Thanks.
