Olympics 2012 - Minecraft

So a few weeks ago I was trying to think of something big to make in my world.

Buzz was playing London Olympics 2012 & suggested I make an Arena / Stadium !

It only took me a week or so to build, just haven't gotten around to getting pics up !

So first i had to mine out & fill in my area which was just under 10,000 blocks total
Walls Stone - Lentgh 70 - Width 40 - Height 20 - 4400 Blocks total
Roof Glass - 2,800 blocks total
Olympic Rings are made out of coloured wool
Running track - gravel
Long Jump - Gravel / Black Wool / Sand (thinking i might use Soul Sand)
Archery - Colour wool / chests with Bows & Arrow (Might get a heap of Snowballs or Eggs)
Wall Torches - Netherdirt then lit

Still have a few spots i can put an event, just not 100% what to do though. Thoughts ?




Just a bit of signage at the entrance - They are Diamond blocks

NICE!

havent done anything in MC in ages since i packed it up =(

Rexler, Tasmanica & Tasweigen got my hooked !

I love creating things, working on a Revolving Lighthouse at the moment!
Also, making a waterslide/rapids

IM STILL MAKING MY OBLIVIONS OBSIDEON PRISON

POV was the labourer and final designer, but I believe I deserve credit for a few of the ideas/concepts

Will be interesting to see the prison once you are back online Obbie...

Yes Rexler is right, he helped a lot with the ideas... But didn't help building them took so long to bloody build lol
