    Your mailbox could be a little cabin. When you have mail, a campfire ignites in the chimney to let you know you have mail by the smoke coming out.

      Maybe have it always on, but low enough so no smoke leaves the chimney, and when mail arrives a hay bale is moved under it so the smoke reaches higher and leaves the chimney

    Something to consider. At the edges of forests, they tend to have lots of shrubs and smaller trees, on account of the greater amount of sunlight. By making some shrubs on the edge of your forest, it might help visually close off the interior and help to augment that feeling of seclusion.

      I came here to say this! Smaller tress and strubs at the edge will also make the small forest look more integrated with the landscape when you look back from the house! edit: this would also help trap - i mean protect - the animals in your lovely forest

    @Inokiulus 13 дней назад +1144

    36:30 Etho makes a really great point. There are no dead trees. When he mentions that, you guys were imagining broken over and fallen trees. Like you were trying to imagine how to do a tree at an angle, but you don't have to at all. The most realistic thing you could do is to include a tall and grey "dead" tree or two with no leaves. Trees can stay upright in that form for a very long time in a forrest and they become sustained like that due to wildlife. If you want to do a fallen variation. Create the non-fallen trunk upright with a point of failure at the top, then lie the "rest of it" near it in a way that makes sense.
    I love the project that your doing. It's ineffably beautiful. Every block choice and every "object" decision, has made sense in a way were you can imagine the HOW it exists and how it could have come to be there. It's like you expressing an expression of life itself.
    This is why I really liked Etho's point about there being no dead trees and it being too "perfect" because life would be meaningless without that subtle, yet respectful nod/tip of the hat toward death.
    The fallen trees you currently have with the moss in the new forrest don't follow this theme that you have been working with where EVERY single block and every single thing tells a story of WHAT it is and HOW it got there.
    TL;dr Basically... you have fallen trees with moss covering them, but there are no broken trees that those "fallen" ones belong to.

    • @catherinelangenkamp9340
      @catherinelangenkamp9340 12 дней назад +45

      Agree 100 million percent. I think there also needs to be Grey tone fallen trees as well, not just mossy ones. Tuff and acacia really do look like real trees, and this forest isn't just a minecraft forest anymore, it really transports you to a REAL feeling forest

      Even one or two trees that have leaves half way up and a dead leafless top would help the realism aswell. Or opposite dead 3/4 up and a green leafy top.

    • @It-b-Blair
      @It-b-Blair 12 дней назад +12

      That’s the difference between a natural forest, and a maintained tax deductible “tree farm” (not like a Christmas tree farm, just a forest you grow). You take out the sick ones, surveyors come through and mark the trees that need to be removed. You clean up and chip the fallen branches and use some for firewood. Forests are so different across the world, bdubs made a kind of forest that reminds me of the northwest usa and also northern Ontario.

    BUILD IDEA for B-dubs:
    Sound effects in the forest
    When Gem made her season 9 base she added birds sounds to her base with music discs. This would be such a good thing to add to the forest and it would add so much life. Just the subtle sound of water at the water fall, or wind and birds in the trees would make the atmosphere even more immersive.

    The hermits did not give you nearly enough credit for how breathtaking this forest is. I adore the way you approached this build and the creek with the waterfall is seriously genius! I don't know how someone can not see it as what it is, this is true, classic painting techniques at its finest.
    My suggestion, if you're up for a challenge: This is a typical mono culture forest, which sadly is the most common in many areas. It's still beautiful, but it's less diverse. It does makes perfect sense, being closest to "civilisation". If you want to play with even more plant opportunities and variation, try making an old growth forest on the far end of your base. You can really dig into how the plants and animals live in symbiosis then. A few "mother trees" protecting their children and other bushes, flowers and critters from rain and sunshine.
    Anyway, I trust that whatever you end up building will be stunning as always!
    Thank you for sharing this.

    There are some great ideas for what kind of structure the mailbox could be, but I figured I'd throw my hat in the ring. I think it would be fun to turn it into a small sugar shack where sap is boiled for syrup. The forest that surrounds my home is similar to this one, and we tap the maples in it at a very small scale, so a sugar shack was the first thing in my head when I imagined a small structure in the forest.
    I know that your forest is currently a mono-culture of one kind of pine-don't get me wrong, I think that works really well in Minecraft. If you tried to do a bunch of different types of trees, you'd lose the palette and cohesion. Irl, the maples and other deciduous trees in forests like these tend to grow just as tall and slender as the pines to fit within the canopy, so it's not difficult to imagine them among the pines here.
    If you did want to rationalize it even further, perhaps there were maples, but they've all been cut down due to some kind of disease. That line of reasoning would also explain why the shack has been converted into a "mailbox". Additionally, if you still wanted to add fallen trees and stumps, it would allow you to make them in a different style from the pines so that they are made to work horizontally or at an angle.
