This is gonna be a long one, so apologies in advance for the WAVE of images. I'll be going by order of area mostly, but I'll jump around a bit especially near the end when it comes to really small stuff like farms. Honestly I've only made a handful of things at time of writing, but I still took too many pictures, so. lol. There's gonna be a lot of individual posts making up this main post.
Most of my time in the server has been spent tinkering in a small corner off the side of Nariko, right next to the rainbow village (gay commune?) so it only seems appropriate to start there.
My most recent building is probably? one of the first things you'll notice if you'll go there, so let's start with that.
The Hive. I'm really happy with this design, even if there isn't a crazy amount of stuff happening here. I've found that the best way to come up with ideas is to scribble down ideas until something hits, and then build it up in a creative world no there's no limits, then use Litematica to help move it to the survival server. Honestly completely forgot there was already a bee character that a nonzero amount of this server is dedicated to when making this, but I'm sure she doesn't mind. Probably. Be sure to say hello to Legally Distinct Normal Queen Bee before you leave. (x:-1475 z:0)
A bit diagonally across from the Hive, you'll probably also notice the Panda Playground. I'll be the first to admit that there isn't much of a playground here, but part of the problem is thinking of things that pandas would enjoy and can actually be interacted with by the pandas to some degree and actually looks like anything at all due to block size. The new introduction of cherry blossoms gives me hope that I can at least pretty up the place a bit, and the pink wood definitely has more of a toy vibe. I'll have to see about that... (x:-1455 z:-50)
In addition, you may or may not have noticed the huge looming ominous dark red castle on the horizon. I made that too :)
The Nether Castle is probably my favorite original building project, so I will be putting a looot of images here. It's not too complicated, but it's my first substantial mc build that I did completely on my own. The biggest disappointment with this castle, however, is that I built it specifically to house 1-2 ghasts, and I could not get a single one in here no matter how hard I tried. That's why it's still a bit janky and ugly; it's still technically a wip as I still cling to that dream. (Should've built it somewhere where the nether portal inside links to a biome where ghasts actually spawn. Ah well.) At least there are a few zombie piglins and magma cubes enjoying the space anyways. (x:-1370 z:-75)
