Building An Island Castle With No Plan 

tip: if you use dark oak planks for a floor, put some cartography tables into the floor. the top texture looks like papers on the floor

this series has inspired me build with no plan and for the first time in ages i acutally finished a build and done interiors all with no tutorials so i would like to thank you for giving me the inspiration or the idea of just winging it and see were imagination takes you.

This playlist with "building without a plan" is THE best .

flowstate building with no plan is a very exciting thing to see

Tips for that ship mod, build the ship floating above the water, then assemble and drop it in. Also, blocks have weight. Stone is heavier than wood etc. The heaviest weight is a Netherite block iirc, and the floaters wont make things float above the level theyre placed at, so sneak them into the build around where you want the water level to be. They basically add "negative weight" to the part of the ship theyre on, so add more near the heavier parts, most ships wont require more than a handful of floaters. Also, the balloons are for airships.

You should make like a pirate cove with that ship mod

The way you speak and edit these videos makes them way more watchable than many other build videos I've found, and it's inspired me to try making my own builds again. I made a small enchanting room in my survival world, so that's a good start

This man single handedly inspired me to go build again. Sadly on bedrock but getting a pc soon and immediately getting vanilla and downloading better adventures+

Tip: You are able to use shears to prevent vines from growing too long. To my knowledge, it works on glowberries, kelp, and all three types of vines. I love your building style for partially overgrown buildings.

When you used chains as spokes on the tent, instead of using carpet what you could do is dig down 2 blocks then place a fence. Then you can place a a block on top of the fence to make it look like it’s going into the ground. None the less, build looks great as always 👍

It’s so cool how your able to take ideas form another thing and turn it into your own build, not copy the refrence, but use it as a cutout, it’s a very cool trait

It's entertaining. I learn a lot. Visually pleasing. Totally relaxing. Great videos all in all. Thank you

After seeing your first "castle without a plan" video, I had to try and make my own. I love your style of videos, it's one of the few things that lets me really understand the building process, most things I've seen are just timelapses, it's so helpful to hear what you're thinking as you do it. I'm trying to get better at building, and these videos have helped me so much!

This has really become one of my favorite channels. Its super relaxing, especially after a long day of Uni. Thank you so much for everything!

this videos really helped me see building in a new light, bit of a perfectionist myself with my autism, but you've shown me it's ok if everything isn't exactly perfect, you can just mix things up abit for texturing. I will for sure try to let myself know that for later on in my future buildings. :D

I have severe anxiety and your videos help me relax a lot, you are the best man! ❤️

Great video as aways, btw at 12:40, you can use solar panels as thrusters. And this new mod gives so many good ideas too! Make an Movable and functional Warship, and call it the bob leviathan.

This is literally my favorite thing to watch ever. Never stop please

i love the Bob Ross vibes this gives me! love this series, you inspired me to start building in minecraft again, i used to do a lot of these!!

Yo I plan on making videos like yours soon.

Thanks for adding the new songs! :) --Capn Stinky

Would be cool to see you make a half finished build where its still in construction with a medieval crane and scaffolding. Just to make it feel more real and alive. Edit: Nevermind you actually did it in the video lol

Welcome back to Complimentary! I love these building videos, such an inspiration! Also I'm definitely gonna play around with Eureka! Ships! in my world

I've only watched a few of your videos but I've learned that if you want a cliff, *you will make a cliff*

I absolutely love these videos so much so they have re ignited my passion to play minecraft and I've started making builds again keep doing what your doing I love it.

What I like to do sometimes, when I want to create a ruined castle, is that I build it like it is brand new but I add a lot of detail, like gravel being inside the thick walls and beams going through where they should and no stone structures based on top of wooden floors (but no furniture). Then I remove all or most of the wood, remove a lot of blocks to show the castle being old, add texture to it (like mossy cobblestone) and lastly some plants and trees. Making it look like the entire thing is a bit lowered into the ground can also look cool. This all makes everything show, and it looks really "realistic" in my opinion. All the pillars, towers and valves create a stunning effect. Try it some time maybe.

Amazing build, I love how you are doing both creative and survival videos and i can’t wait for both the next creative video you show and the next hardcore survival episode lol, keep it up!

taking the nilfgaardian garrison ruins from witcher 3 as inspiration was such a treat considering you captured the vibe really well.

You could have the ship perpendicular to the dock, and make the hull have a big hold in the centre. It would be reminiscent to classic pirate ships. And since it’s pillagers, it would fit the theme.

Love to have been following this building without a plan series! Keep it ut mate, you're in the flowstate.

I love these videos so much. It has brought so much inspiration to me to start building again but with a different perspective.

Pretty beautiful that you build this really cool fortress. And then just blow it all up.

man really love this series, dont stop bro

your videos are always so inspiring, it makes me want to go build things. ive also learned a lot just from some of the tips you give throughout the videos

i love these kind of videos

Your videos are so easy to watch man. Keep it up!

The beta smp was so fun. I was building my base and got tp’d into spawn with everyone else and then my pc crashed👍

i reallly love your jazz background music.

great build, thanks for sharing :D

this vid was honestly so fun to watch

You inspire me so much ngl. Like i watch your videos and immediately want to build as well. Keep the vibes up😊

Try making an nether or end build for the next episode! love this series sm

Hey man really cool vid watching it at school dude you get better every time good luck with the server 👍👍👍👍

The way you editing, adding sound effects, beautiful music makes it more satisfying to watch. Can you try someday Pirate Vibe Style thing??

Here's a tip for glow berries: unlike vines, you don't actually have to put string underneath to stop them from growing. You can just use shears on the bottom and it'll do the same thing without the faint line

Love these build videos

Been loving the building with no plan videos. I think it could be really cool if you tried a more modern or even urban build some time. Keep up the vids 👍👍

Your videos never fails to calm me down❤ thx flow

I love your content bro, keep up the grind 🫶

Love these. Good idea for the stable would be to put ravengers in there.

Again and agin, love it !

i don’t even watch minecraft related stuff on youtube but i absolutely love these building videos, u got something special man keep it up

Commenting for the algorithm. Man you are on a roll with these videos!

i love your videos so much be proud!

Never liked building in mc, always loved pvp more. Watching your videos has made me so much better dude, like i actually love building now

i dont know why, but this build, especially because of the rebel/outlaw like pillager camp, just makes me think of rdr2

going crazy w the uploads

idk why but i love watching these videos

vids r chill asf

Some parts of the reminds me of a sort of old Italian restaurant. The vibes are great dude,

Something you can do for tnt to give it more variety is use red candles and it looks like little sticks of dynamite 👍

I love these ngl

great video!

You should make a Clarence village on the crater PD: I think it could’ve been interesting if the original castle was a Terrance outpost and there where some abandoned shooting grounds around the castle

More of these videos please 🙏❤️

This is exactly why Minecraft is the best game ever Bringing imagination to life is the main purpose for games but Minecraft takes it to the next level.thank you mojang for make this haven.and thank you flow state for bringing our imagination to life

One of my favorite ways to add texture and depth is to replace some of the blocks in the wall with stairs facing outward, it’s just a small little crevice but it looks great

Yeah ik it’s gonna be a great night when I see one of these vids posted

You can make a beam effect with stairs upside down placed back to back for balconies

man you are so good at visualizing. and i am so bad at it. you look at a blank terrain and can imagine a whole damn castle. i would love to have at least 20% of your skills.

I literally have been coming and checking your channel daily to see if the distant horizons let's play video has released lol. It's the coolest thing on youtube rn

very nice build keep it up! (if you sheer the bottom of glow berries they dont grow)

This episode felt more energized than just chill. Different but not opposed to it.

One time me and my friend played a modpack I assembled and it had eureka airships. I was testing it and i accidentally pick up out whole land base. Well at least it motivated us to get out lol

i’m eating pasta guys

its crazy what you can do with just an island and some blocks. i might start doing no-plan builds on my channel lmao

Have you heard about nyf's spiders(mod)? It is a really cool mod which changes the spider AI to find the best way to get to you, but also makes it climb all ways(yes, even the ceiling) like a real spider, very clean. Would be cool in your modpack in my opinion

Yay,another building with no plan vid

You're like the Bob Ross of building

When we see a flowsate video we must click, and enjoy watching the masterpiece that his videos always are.

Yahoo another building video :D

Can't really say I've ever been this early to something. Let alone a video about a game.

It probably wouldn't work because of the differences in terrain but you should consider porting or transferring some of your builds to the Flow SMP. It would be really cool to just randomly stumble across one of your unique builds.

"let me reset this rq" BEST WORDS OF MY LIFE

Maybe put the scaffolding on the walls as they stick out quite high.

So the way eureka works is that it calculates weight and buoyancy per block so the next time you build a ship with a heavy block that’s not very buoyant like deepslate you’ll probably have to fill the hull with floaters Also when you use block that can get waterlogged like stairs and slabs underwater you should use a sponge on it after assembling the ship to get rid of the water since it will be a part of the boat and look weird

Not fully done with the vid yet but dude the stables should totally be for ravagers! Cause, pillagers!

The boat thing was too funny man

It would be cool if you put modern buildings incorporated with some ruins. Like the people found the ruins and built a new base on top of it

avenge the castle!

“Mom drop everything flowstate uploaded” 🔥🔥

I need to know this guy's modpack. These no-plan builds are dragging me back to Minecraft.

I'd like to see a video in survival mode, recently been building moderately sized structures in a survival world and it's been pretty fun and fulfilling as you (usually) have a use for it, like with mods I can use my ship to travel and as a base far from home, I think a video doing that would be really cool

Man! I hope to see more better advanture plus eps.

You should start using invisible item frames. I don't actually remember how to get them (I think its a command only item). But it would really improve the builds.

W, getting flashbacks to the ideas incident in discord

Hi, I am the guy who commented on a new PC. I have a few questions mixed with a few comments. How did the server go? Did it go well? Hopefully it did. I really enjoy these videos because you just add the commentary while building and the builds themselves are just good and not overbearing. Keep on making videos like these and I cannot wait to see what you have in store next. Do you have any ideas on what kind of content that I could make? I am hoping to start a YT channel soon, so do you have any advice for me?

you can use the ship mod to make half realistic ships and maybe sunken or fallen buildings/ docks and what not!!!

Damn we need a ship mod for console!!

nice
