Build Transforming A Vanilla Cliff

As the titel says,I tried transoforming a Vanilla Cliff in a more or less lovely place


a
So this was,what I decided to start with. Nice,isnt it ?


Apparently,this is,what I got up with for quite a while and I had absolutely no Idea what to do with it but I was not happy with my product so I decided to build more and more,and this is what I ended up with

Spoiler: The End Product

Do you mean terraforming or transforming?

 

Im pretty sure what I meant was transofrming,I may be wrong tho. Is terraforming better in this case ? I thought terraforming is,when u change masses of landscape.

 

Terraforming would mean altering the terrain directly to make it more "habitable", whereas transforming would mean taking the existing terrain and changing it's appearance.

You probably mean transforming, your spelling is just bothering me slightly.

 

Omg realized that just now xD Thanks ^^

 

Looks really nice although the top of the mountain looks quite bare compared to the bottom. Try adding maybe a few houses or farms or something like that.

 

The end product is nice :3 The house designs really matches the mountain imo

 

Slabs look flat and under detailed. Try adding spruce stairs or a arch above

The cliff looks overall empty. Add more paths and houses

Bay area looks empty, add ships and cranes, possibly a port for shops

 

Have you clicked on the Imgur link yet ? Because im not sure if u did :P

 

The middle of the cliff still looks empty...

The ship sails look off

By "add a port" I mean add a platform above the water around the gulf or whatever its called

 

I think the thing that really stands out the most for me, is that your changes are all completely stone. I understand you have the stone variations mixed in, which is great by the way, but I feel like it could do with some dirt on the lower portions so it proves as more of a gradient; both from the hills next to it and the ground below. Your buildings stand out way too much without some form of brown tying them in to the terrain around them with a natural look. :)
Otherwise, lovely build; keep it up. ^-^

In summary:

//replace stone 25%stone,25%cobblestone,25%stone6,25%stained_clay:9

And put some grass on top of the cliff

/v grass
/b 5
/b over d2
And use the arrow

 

Working on it rn ;P

 

I wish I could even approach that level of skill

 

More dirt, rather than grass ;P But keep goin! ^-^

 

WorldEdit
Well played sir

 

I did use WE for the stone variety,but everything else is handmade

 

pls make imgur link an actual image

 

I could do that,but that would be more than the allowed 10 (?) pictures I think...
