Hello, Its me JVRenz from the server. I am trying to get to the rank of Architect with this build. My project is called The "Advanced Minecraft House". To get to the "Advance Minecraft House", You need to go on creative and do /warp DuckCity (yoy need the capitals). The "Advance Minecraft House" features a nice, big waterfall in the middle of the house and beds in the back next to the ninja painting. On the second floor it features a sky view on the roof and a variety of crafting stations and benches. It also features a special guest (you need to find him). Here are some pictures of it and Thank you for reading this and i hope you consider to make me the rank of Architect.
-JVRenz :)
P.S The pictures kind of went in reverse

Heya JVRenz.
Nice interesting looking house you got there, but I just don't think it will be large enough, and not detailed enough for an architect worthy build... Sorry :(
But what you can do, is try to extend it abit, add another part maybe? Making it an L shaped house? They are always nice!
In my opinion, square shaped houses that are not detailed enough to make people look away from the fact that it is square, make the house 80% more ugly than they can be with another shape!
I,m not telling you to break everything, but add another square, removing the "square feeling" as it becomes an L possibly! :)
Anyhow! This is just my opinion! I am not a part of staff, so count this just as a player rating your build, as that is pretty much what I am doing here :)
Alright! I think what I want said has been said, so I just want to end this with a Good Luck!
I hope you manage to impress Pri enough for the architect rank and just remember, no matter how much they are asking from you, always do that and a little more! That always catches them by suprise when you show them the finished "product" if you want to call it that xD :3

PS: I forgot to mention! DETAIL! Detail makes perfect! (yes, I took that from "Practice makes perfect" :3)... Detail is mostly important right after size when applying for a rank like this! Don't forget that!!

The house is rather open and not so detailed on the inside. Maybe add some rooms and more decoration. Also, you seemed to stick to using the same materials when building the house. Try using different materials to make the whole thing more eye-popping. Hope this helps.

Kind of obvious that you have to improve it, even ask for my rating.

Uniqueness: 3
A medium-sized house with small detail. After all, it's an usual house you see in multiplayer Minecraft servers everyday as if you lasted a week seeing builds by others.

Beauty: 4
If I am going to take down every detail of the house one by one, I shouldn't.
Anyway, I think the house was mean to be a mix of modern and Western style house but I don't think it will pass the perfect flawless 500/50 legendary score. You have to re-change the textures of your house for improvement, try experimenting with blocks. It SHOULD look compatible with other texture packs.

Execution: 4
A lot of space to place furniture in your house. At least there's effort.

Scale: 4
It's not too big nor too small.

Verdict: 15
It's applicable for Apprentice rank, but you already are Apprentice. It may be interesting yet it won't last long.

I know you can do better if you try.

Agreed, granted that this is in creative you should consider experimenting GREATLY with the vast amount of free resources you have in creative :) and then apply again with details in mind :)
