Hey so my hobby in the last week or so has been of building a giant glass ball in Minecraft, 64 block in diameter, put a wall in its centre and fill one half with water, with lava in the other. Here’s the result :
You can absolutely reblog if you like it, it’s random creation for fun that happens to be pretty

Seven screenshots of a structure in the game Minecraft. A giant, hollow glass sphere stands on an endless plain of sandstone. The sphere is 64 blocks in diameter, with a 2 block thick wall dividing its centre. The left half is filled with lava, creating a glow from inside.The right half is filled with water.
The first two screenshots show the sphere during the day and night, using the default textures. The third and fourth shots are similar, but this time using BSL Shaders, adding lifelike realism to the structure, textures and lighting.
The remaining pictures are all set at night. The fifth shot shows the detailed reflection of the lava on the glass wall and water, from outside the sphere. The sixth screenshot shows the glow of the lava through the glass wall, from inside the water half. The last picture shows the sphere with the water to the left and lava to the right, the shadowed lava behind the glass wall looking like the pupil of an eye.

People praising my patience/my commitment (Thanks, I have ADHD)
People envying my PC and wanting this in their world (you can do it!!)
Big Tide Pod (yes)
Bonus:
People comparing this to a Mario Galaxy Level (I haven’t played & I’m curious)
Wait I forgot the 5th comment type I love :
5. O R B
Another good contender : 6. Put a fish in it!
If this post hits 50k I’ll add a fish! 🐟
49k is enough for me! Behold, Fish!!!
Cod Starts the Ball!
Squid Soon swirls in!
Puffer pops up!
Tropical? No Trouble!
Salmon Swimming in a sphere!
Y'all want turtles? we got turtles! (and me who forgot to hide my HUD in this pic)
Dancing with the Dolphins!
And finally, I added more of them and made a little aquarium! Really basic, a dreadful lack of substrate if I want to make a real one (and if I do I’ll take a better screenshot)
Thank you for taking such interest in my silly creation. Art and fun comes from a multitude of place, community being one of them!
