Something to consider. At the edges of forests, they tend to have lots of shrubs and smaller trees, on account of the greater amount of sunlight. By making some shrubs on the edge of your forest, it might help visually close off the interior and help to augment that feeling of seclusion.

36:30 Etho makes a really great point. There are no dead trees. When he mentions that, you guys were imagining broken over and fallen trees. Like you were trying to imagine how to do a tree at an angle, but you don't have to at all. The most realistic thing you could do is to include a tall and grey "dead" tree or two with no leaves. Trees can stay upright in that form for a very long time in a forrest and they become sustained like that due to wildlife. If you want to do a fallen variation. Create the non-fallen trunk upright with a point of failure at the top, then lie the "rest of it" near it in a way that makes sense. I love the project that your doing. It's ineffably beautiful. Every block choice and every "object" decision, has made sense in a way were you can imagine the HOW it exists and how it could have come to be there. It's like you expressing an expression of life itself. This is why I really liked Etho's point about there being no dead trees and it being too "perfect" because life would be meaningless without that subtle, yet respectful nod/tip of the hat toward death. The fallen trees you currently have with the moss in the new forrest don't follow this theme that you have been working with where EVERY single block and every single thing tells a story of WHAT it is and HOW it got there. TL;dr Basically... you have fallen trees with moss covering them, but there are no broken trees that those "fallen" ones belong to.

That’s the difference between a natural forest, and a maintained tax deductible “tree farm” (not like a Christmas tree farm, just a forest you grow). You take out the sick ones, surveyors come through and mark the trees that need to be removed. You clean up and chip the fallen branches and use some for firewood. Forests are so different across the world, bdubs made a kind of forest that reminds me of the northwest usa and also northern Ontario.

Using glass for the waterfall was smart. You said you want more movement so a small suggestion would be to put hidden flowing water under the bridge. You won’t see any movement but just hearing the moving water might help.

The hermits did not give you nearly enough credit for how breathtaking this forest is. I adore the way you approached this build and the creek with the waterfall is seriously genius! I don't know how someone can not see it as what it is, this is true, classic painting techniques at its finest. My suggestion, if you're up for a challenge: This is a typical mono culture forest, which sadly is the most common in many areas. It's still beautiful, but it's less diverse. It does makes perfect sense, being closest to "civilisation". If you want to play with even more plant opportunities and variation, try making an old growth forest on the far end of your base. You can really dig into how the plants and animals live in symbiosis then. A few "mother trees" protecting their children and other bushes, flowers and critters from rain and sunshine. Anyway, I trust that whatever you end up building will be stunning as always! Thank you for sharing this.

Good Lord... It's just picturesque. It's so evocative and lifelike, despite all the weird things that go into creating it. Your ability to paint at a distance is just completely foreign and incomprehensible to me. And you make it look so easy and effortless, despite the time and energy that goes into it. Just blown away

There are some great ideas for what kind of structure the mailbox could be, but I figured I'd throw my hat in the ring. I think it would be fun to turn it into a small sugar shack where sap is boiled for syrup. The forest that surrounds my home is similar to this one, and we tap the maples in it at a very small scale, so a sugar shack was the first thing in my head when I imagined a small structure in the forest. I know that your forest is currently a mono-culture of one kind of pine-don't get me wrong, I think that works really well in Minecraft. If you tried to do a bunch of different types of trees, you'd lose the palette and cohesion. Irl, the maples and other deciduous trees in forests like these tend to grow just as tall and slender as the pines to fit within the canopy, so it's not difficult to imagine them among the pines here. If you did want to rationalize it even further, perhaps there were maples, but they've all been cut down due to some kind of disease. That line of reasoning would also explain why the shack has been converted into a "mailbox". Additionally, if you still wanted to add fallen trees and stumps, it would allow you to make them in a different style from the pines so that they are made to work horizontally or at an angle.

A note block playing some river and small waterfall sounds, and maybe even some bird sounds, would make that little forest really whimsical!

Watching bdubbs build always fascinates me, seeing the random placement of leaves to make his trees look natural in a way that it doesn't even look like blocks/Minecraft. I struggle to build stuff that should look natural because my OCD makes it nearly impossible for me to place blocks randomly. So I would usually follow tutorials because placing something out of pattern based on a tutorial still satisfies my OCD since it's supposed to be that way according to the tutorial if you know what I mean.

Loving the show and tell between all the Hermits this season!

The fact that when he was explaining his trees and switched to his bed, and I didnt even question it and said "this man's about to use beds and it's gonna look fantastic obviously"

LOL yeah if it happened, that wouldn't surprise me one bit

The shapes of the streaks created in the white glass makes me think the water is falling and hitting rock and is being pushed and angled. It really REALLY sells it. I feel like I can see it cascading.

I can almost feel the shade from the trees, smell the smell of the hot pine needles, feel the crunch of the trod dirt below, hear the warble of the small creek and the distant thunder of the water fall, feel the cold flecks of water as you go over that second bridge. I can almost feel it all. Well done!

"That's really really good actually... You jerk" had me rolling. 😂 34:30

I love listening to Pearl and Bdubs talk shop they are so clearly on the same wavelength. Bdubs tells us "here is everything I am trying to do" and then Pearl just walks up like "ah I see you're trying to do everything you told the audience about". Like they just Get each other on a builder to builder level.

with the life in the forest, worst comes to worst you can always put the foxes and bunnies on leads and tie them to the fences and walls on the tree trunks

End rods could add some really neat movement to the waterfall as well as highlights!

Bdubs is basically the Bob Ross of minecraft...the aesthetic of the base plus the editing and music is so soothing...Keep up the beautiful builds!

Bdubs perfect waterfalls. I don't have to squint, with my boomer-adjacent eyes everything in Minecraft looks real; Bdubs' builds just look like fine art.

WOW props to the commenter and you for that comment at around 9:36! It was also something I was thinking!! I’m obsessed with your whole area, but that eye level view was super nice!! Fantastic video Bdubs! Thank you for always putting in so much effort in all aspects.

When I was really young, I lived on a cattle ranch in southeast Idaho. Our summer cattle range was a big lodgepole pine forest. You absolutely NAILED it.

I have to say, sir you’re a painter. You just don’t use traditional paint the way you create things in Minecraft you’re creating art thank you for being so amazing.

And it's not just a painting, it's a space, a story and an experience all in one, it's truly impressive.

I like how everyone is inviting others over to check out what theyve done, and ask questions and learn from each other this season.

People say romanticise your life, Bdubs is romanticising minecraft! A beautiful masterpiece

I felt like I was watching a Bob Ross episode. Amazing work! So beautiful!

Whaha yes exactly. 'Try not to panic' always seems to work quite good as well 😂

I live in a forest, and I can say this is the most accurate representation of a forest in Minecraft that I've ever seen.

I am loving this forest. In the 1980's (yes I said that) I would drive through my gate, through a small pine forest which opened out into a little gully where my cottage sat, surrounded by oozing autumn mist, the earthy smell of mushrooms and the distant bleat of goats waiting to be milked. Bdubs I can't thank you enough for evoking such fond memories in your builds and videos.

It's like walking into an oil painting. Just beautiful scenery.

Bdubs sponsored segments I’ll never skip

As an artist, your base this season absolutely makes me giddy. It's like a 3D painting! The amount of thought you put into framing, silhouettes, composition, contrast, leading the viewer's eye, etc is fantastic. And you clearly know exactly what you're talking about too. The view of the forest from the bridge actually fits beautifully into a rule of thirds composition. I already know when the season 10 world download comes out, I'll be spending most of my time in this cozy isolated woodland landscape

You should hide some spore blossoms in the middle of the trees or something to get the particle effects in there as well!

bdubs once again showing the world he is the Bob Ross of minecraft

I've noticed the hermits including segments in their vids of each other's honest reactions and constructive feedback to builds this season. It's been so wonderful and super helpful for learning their thought processes.

End rods have white particles that flow down and I think it could fit perfectly on the waterfall.

That’s genius

To add more ambiance to the forest area, you can add some underground redstone auto-players jukebox/noteblocks with custom sounds like birds chirping/ winds blowing / water streams. They can be triggered randomly or you use the sculk sensor to trigger them.

I'm really loving this season. The focus on nature just feels so whimsical, and I love it.

That waterfall is the most brilliant thing I’ve seen in this game

etho obsession chart gonna be crazy with this one

I've watched this episode three times now, and each time I'm amazed at your artistry. I love watching the cut scenes. It's clear that each block you place is deliberate and purposeful. Your mix of art and humor is masterful. Please keep it up, Bdubs. You have a life-long fan.

Bdubs, you should take a look at some photos of the nature near Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen & Wengen in Switzerland. There’s a beautiful effect there with the rolling hills where you can simultaneously see down a beautiful hill and up another beautiful hill w/ rolling & lush greenery. I think you’d find some lovely inspiration ❤

When you walk under that canopy I get the same feeling as being in a real forest. The interplay of light and dark is spot on to a forest understory.
