I don't know if this thread is still even alive or if anyone cares anymore [after all it IS 3 years old] but i about 3 months ago started building the castle of Amber in exquisite detail using Minecraft and my own custom texture pack.
i only really joined this forum to announce this to see if it poked any interest. if you don;t know what minecraft is then google minecraft. the way i see it is that it's a 3D art program. which is why i'm building the throne of the universe with it.
so yeah i should have enough of it complete soon to be able to do a video on it. so when i do and i do, i shall return here and post a link to the video tour of what i have so far and see if anyone is interested.
