Build competition

The March build competition is about building a biome in your plot on Creative. You can take your favourite biome, or the worst one you know, as a starting point and give it a makeover!

What we want to see is solid terraforming with creative touches. You decide how to do it.

Requirements:

Must be in the plot world, within your plots. You can use as many plots as you like of those available to you. Remember you can merge plots!

Schematics are forbidden and result in a DSQ.
