#chartres

Been inspired to make a little more progress on the #Minecraft #cathedral we're building.

It is based loosely on the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de #Chartres including the labyrinth which @solcita designed and rendered. The build was my primary coping mechanism in the earlier part of the pandemic and as spoons allow, @solcita and I continue on it just as the pandemic continues.

It's worth noting that this world is a Survival world, and all of the diorite used to construct this cathedral is mined by hand. The floor is made of half-block and lit at intervals from beneath with torches lending to the criss-cross pattern visible. This is in part to prevent the spawning of mobs.

I wanted the impossible forever project, and it has not disappointed. 🙂

The view is from the top of a partially constructed column near the vault looking down at the floor and seeing 7 columns and arches stretch into the distance. Visible on the floor is the Chartres-style labyrinth rendered square befitting Minecraft.

The Triforium are visible as well as the Clerestory windows and a bit of the vaulting. Starry night sky is visible through the windows.
