Giand 3D Tux Penguin!

[grdryn]

Hai!

Since I joined a few weeks ago, I've pretty much been working on this almost all the time, and it's finally finished! It didn't go quite according to plan: I built him on top of a small island, and I didn't realize until I was shaping the eyes, that there's a limit to how high blocks can be placed, hence his head is a little smaller than it should be, and his eyes are a bit weird. Also, this has been my first ever real project on minecraft, so I'm pretty delighted it turned out as well as it did!

This is about halfway finished I think: after about 2 weeks work

From atop a tree! (this was a warp point that I used to go to sometimes to make sure the colours were ok)

From accross the pond.

The sign says it all!

Outside, looking in.

Inside, looking up.

Inside, with some lights to show depth.

Here's the inside of one of his feet: it's so big it's almost cavernous!

yea things like this need a little more planning and calculations before starting but looks awesome i would walk by there all the time hunting sheep

and now that we have colors are you gonna be changing it??

 

[grdryn]

I will eventually change the feet/beak probably, but I will wait until the shop is back before doing anything I think.

Looks really good. I wish I had such dedication to do mine.

I also can understand if you misplace a single block of Obsidian.

It looks amazing. I've heard good comments from random people walking by.

Tux is finally in technicolor, and he's got a friend! ;D
