Project Plainmoor

Post by cambgull »

I've set myself a rather geeky project - to recreate our beloved Plainmoor in Minecraft.

The big struggle is remembering the colours and decorations in various areas, and this is where I need your help.

I need pictures of Plainmoor that aren't the usual ones. I can find a million pictures of Bristows Bench, but I can't find any of the food stand next to it, or the inside of No. 10s etc.

I'd really appreciate any help you can all offer!
Luke.

Great idea. I am not sure if this is possible but i am sure if you asked the club - they would let you in to take images/videos?

The Bench will be an interesting one considering just to the right of this picture is the sea, might have to build out over the top but Westlands School is sunk!

So that's what 'geeky' is. Always wondered what it was.. :)

Seriously, Cambgull is clearly a man of vision who is to be commended for his efforts. :-D

Somebody help him. Please.. :~D

Well, you have 'geeks' and 'nerds'.

Nerds know a lot about useful subjects, such as Science and Maths.

Geeks know a lot about nothing useful at all, such as Minecraft and how to defeat the last boss on Mario.

EDIT: Also, "clearly a man of vision" is perhaps taking it a little too far. I would suggest 'clearly a man of boredom' is a more accurate description! :nod:

This is actually quite impressive, though there'll come a time when that grass will need the services of Shaun the sheep and Aardman Animation. Or is it an artificial pitch? :keepie:

Have you thought of using LEGO instead..?? :)

The grass is actually green carpet, so fortunately it will not grow longer!

I've also put some lovely glowing blocks underneath it so it will give the effect of floodlights at night time.
