I mean, why would you need to fill up 5 layers of lava all by yourself? It's still just a pool of lava :/ It's the details that make it epic, and you will need to add those yourself anyway.

I agree with this somewhat. But if you think about iut i could sit here and desgin great buildings but if i dont actually build them, its really useless.

I think you need to find the perfect middle of the 2. I agree with what tbpb is saying that i would rather sacrifice a little on the detail and build it block for block than make it a little better and use commands like cuboid to finish it (not saying that there is anything wrong with that). It is an interesting topic, i would love to see what the admins have to say about it.

Mr.Monkey:
A tip on more random looking leaves, make it random :P Just have some leaves sticking out instead of the same thing all round, like you did in the drawing. But even now, it does look good :P Maybe it's even better to have it 'bad' looking on the dark side, to give a more mechanical ambience to it.

@Nick3306
Thnx for the input! I'm sure there's a topic somewhere on the forums about this....if not, guess I'll have to start one! :p

@Monkey
Thnx Monkey, I was intending to add the "randomness" factor to it but decided to stick with the same leaf all around because at the time it was too hard to add randomness without it looking too strange.  I might do it now because I have some order to it and it'd be much easier for me.  I was also think of that too about having it look "bad" on the mecha side.  But I'm not sure how to go about it....any specific ideas?

tbpb2010:
At the moment I'm about 78-80% done with the "tree".  I still have the trunk, branches and insides to do which should take no more than a few days to finish.  Right now I'm slowing my work on the tree (partly because I'm tired of constantly working on it)  so I can start working on other projects I hope that will get me closer to becoming crafter.

Update/add more pictures. I really like this project.
