My work also gave me a opportunity to be added to a build team for a civilization server. Now if that server will be made is up in the air, but the important part for me is that a group of people liked my stuff so much that they wanted *me* to help. Honestly has been a dream of mine for a while

BUT the wider New Year resolution for 2025 for me was to prove myself. Which I do think i succeeded with. 2025 brought me a ton of praise and compliments from my work. It feels great to be recognized like that. I was also able to talk to other builders about my builds which is always a pleasure

These blocks as of right now can replace trapdoors in places that you would use trapdoors in. Some immediate ideas that came to mind was molding, planters, pillars, shutters, etc. They are also good as... shelves lol. Always hankering for more decorative blocks for interiors and these are perfect!

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 03/08/2025

Another wonderful thing about shelves is that they all have a unique back texture!! Just having another texture in all these colors that adds a bit of detail without being noisy is awesome. Some ideas I have is using them as a wall or door.

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 03/08/2025

Right off the bat i love how there's two different textures, depending on if they're powered by redstone or not. I also adore how the texture is based off the stripped version of wood rather than the planks. Always adored the stripped texture so Mojang gets bonus points for this.

Allow me to pop off for one moment, OMG THE SHELF BLOCKS ARE SO COOL‼‼‼ It's basically like they added trapdoors in 2025. The potential and application on these are absolutely insane!!!

Other than that I made a fully automatic honeycomb and honey bottle farm under the greenhouse from a few months ago. Actually really proud of this, i would say its 40% tutorial and 60% my own design. Not the most redstone savvy but i love dabbling with it from time to time.

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 03/07/2025

So funnily enough I *accidentally* created another example of leading lines in this area lol. With how these trees point your eyes up to the church. It makes walking through my world just that little bit more enjoyable.

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 03/07/2025

This is just a tiny example of how you can use compositional elements to spice up a build. It was really fun figuring out how to manipulate the environment to just add that little bit more detail. Builds not done yet, but it was nice to focus on landscaping for a bit. More to come in the future.

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 03/07/2025

Leading Lines is a photography compositional element in which the composition of the photo is done in a way to lead the audience towards a certain part of the photo. Here I used custom trees, the path, and the wall to achieve this.

Minecraft Update - June 2024 Happy (belated) pride everyone! This month I wanted to do something a little special for this months Minecraft build. I'm giving y'all a little lesson in composition using Minecraft!

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 03/06/2025

I have an idea for my next big project though. I want to build a castle that takes heavy inspiration from Dunrobin Castle in Scotland! This will be a big undertaking and I've never actually built a castle in minecraft before so I'm looking forward to the challenge! Looking forward to this project

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 03/06/2025

Yeah no definitely all WIP's lol. But now that im back I should be able to really focus up and build something good for June.

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 03/06/2025

Minecraft Update - May 2024 Aight so for may I don't have much to show y'all. Didn't have a whole lot of time to play this month due to my trip to England! That and nothing that i was puttin down was really clicking so i just have some half-finished projects.

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 02/05/2025

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 01/05/2025

So this month the 1.21.5 Spring to Life update came out and GOD they popped off. Now *these* are the true Jacob updates lol. Best part about this update is the leaf litter, bushes, and wildflowers. Absolutely wonderful inclusions. So far, the drops have been really good, hoping they can keep it up.

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 01/05/2025

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 01/05/2025

Minecraft Update - April 2024 I built a greenhouse... House!! Finally!!!! This was a kinda tricky build do to the diagonal building shapes. If i can toot my own horn real quick, while the rest of the build is nothing special DAMN does the greenhouse part looks SO GOOD!!!

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 05/04/2025

The build I *wanted* to get done was a green house sorta thing. But all y'all getting is abstract shapes lol. This builds gonna be a bit technical design wise so it'll take me a bit. Stay tune for that!

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 05/04/2025

Minecraft Update - March 2024 Alrighty so first things first I do know im posting these 4 days late lol. The excuse is that i was down and NYC visiting a most wonderful friend and forgor to do it before i left. Anyways, not a whole ton of progress but i did almost finish the rose garden so yay!

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 28/02/2025

Took very heavy inspiration from @solardrake.bsky.social and also some of the post offices that I've worked in personally. I want to expand more on the iconography of this to be named postal service so stay tuned for that. Here are some pics of the interior.

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 28/02/2025

Minecraft Update - February 2024 I made a post office! Being a mailman myself, I've always wanted to create a postal service in my Minecraft world. So this build lays the ground work for many more offices like this to be made all around my world. #minecraft #minecraftbuild

Second project is very very WIP but This is supposed to be a garden for roses. Definitely trust the process for this one lol. This space stayed empty for a long time and I'm glad to be able to actually put something here. More will come in the future

Jacob Rose @mini-jacob.bsky.social · 01/02/2025

First build is heavily inspired by Nordic taverns. I was given the build idea of "chimney" and kinda ran with it. Also used the wonderful new Tuff bricks in 1.21 and the pale wood from 1.21.4. When I build it in survival I'll make it in a snowy place for sure.
