Needs plenty of work, but the thing related to the beam in the back is done.
My Nether vandalism continues.

Not going to complete this in creative; meant to be a guideline for something i'll build in MP when the server I go to is back up. Will probably make the wall taller and the moat deeper/wider.

This is the main city on my server, it's still a long way from completed but once finished will serve as a central hub and peaceful zone on the server. You will be able to buy houses and apartments/floors of the skyscrapers. It has a subway system for rapid transport along with artificial canals joining to natural rivers, shops to buy and sell materials, arenas to fight in or bet on a fight and so on, once this is all finished along with a few other towns I hope to run a huge rpg server. Early days.
(The island across the blue and red bridges is a seperate town)

I want to build something stupidly big, but I don't know what kind of style I'm going for. I like the look of Washington DC office buildings. It's all going to be survival, so I'd like it to be all stone and wood. I don't know how well these two materials mix, but we'll see.
Anyone got any ideas/tips? Building has never been my strong side in Minecraft, but I'd really just like to try.

holy fucking shit that is glorious, that's the kind of thing I wanna build but I dunno where to start.
Why thankyou :) (if it was aimed at me) Stone and wood will work well, use stone brick for the exterior and wood planks for floors on the inside and stuff

Whoa, enormous. And how'd you take that picture? I thought for a second you'd posted a pic of Sim City.
Dynmap, I think. It looks great! How long have you been working on it?
Yeah I use Dynmap :) And thanks man, the server is going to be three months old sometime next week, here's the full world so far:

teach me the ways of building impressive city buildings
[editline]21st November 2012[/editline]
most of the things I make suck hard.
Look up real skyscrapers and try to recreate them in the game, start out with simple blocky towers and start to experiment with more curved architecture.
The far left tower is based on "The Pinnacle" planned for London, next is based on the Sears/Willis tower in Chicago, after that "The Cheesegrater" from London, then the The Empire State Building, the tower on the far right I just made up.

Also, I tend to make the skeleton of the tower than apply a facade afterwards, much like is done in real construction.

That reminds me... did Cartograph G ever update?

Think development pretty much died, shame because it was really useful. Ever since I got my own server I've been using dynmap so maybe it's active again or been replaced

I had a look, apparently it's alive and well. The time spent in hiatus probably hasn't helped its reputation, though.

My carrier picture is done in Carto_G. Its pretty confusing to use though.
So, decided to try and create a Half-Life 2 Citadel inspired building, It's meh so far, but I've only just started, feeling alright with it.

I've tried that so many times and the height limit just crushes my dreams :(
