Japanese-themed Island

[topaz prawn]

I started building in October, inspired by the plains biome, where it is always autumn. The flowers, the orange sky. I decided I had to build an Asian style, and Japanese architecture is widely extended and well documented on the Internet.

The designs were complex and idea flows through these months to make this real. I named the castle: Ko-Ume Shiro (Little Plum Castle) cause I used the white banners where do require cloudberries and it's small compare to other castle. It could be 5 stories tall, but I do need to justify the amount of space that I have to fill 😅

Hope you guys like it! 🏯

Hi, this is spectacular! I'd love to see more of the 3-story temple you have; there aren't any close-up photos of it. I'd love to do something similar. Do you have a video on YouTube?

Fair enough. I did video recording, but since I'm playing on my Macbook Air, I ran out of storage pretty quickly. So I discarded it.
I will offer you more screenshot about the castle interiors.
I wish I could make a video, hopefully this could be enough. I still having more screenshot about the entire island.

It's beautiful, I love it! Honestly, it's the best build I've ever seen and the closest to what I want to do. The more I can learn from every detail, the better, but it's fine as it is. I really hope you can upload a video someday so I can appreciate and learn everything, since you have so much to offer, haha. Thank you so much for the photos!

Scroll up, there's a whole set of them 🙂

My favourite screenshot here is the scene of you sitting as a lord with that flower banner backdrop. Nice touch with the hare carpet

@scarlet lynx @devout heron Okay, I understand. I guess it was my mistake, since I wanted to share the whole island. I had to open up the world, and in the process, I got distracted by another building project.

The reason I'm not taking more screenshots is simply that not all of them are good, or to be more specific, they only look good from certain angles. Some shots are kinda the same like previous posted. Here are more pictures of the castle:

That looks really good.

This is amazing ! I recently did a japanese-themed build on a small plains island too, but not in the same scale. I'm toying with the idea of posting it in this chan or on the subreddit...
I would love for us to share some tips about building in this style (if you're interested), I think it could be interesting for both of us.

Either way, I love your build, it's amazing looks and design 🙂

I would love to see your building style, you can post them in both places 😆
Well I'm not longer building on this style but I can share my tips. Feel free to DM me.
