Demo the map was drawn into MC... Zarky doesn't mean Pinkie actually drew those with pen and pencil XD

Yeah, Conrad's right. Essentially I painted the map, Every hill, valley, forest, biome, mountain and snow covered peak was painted into existence by a program that translated it into the map your now seeing such tasty teasers for. Of course, all of this built off the initial concept that Manny and Zark came up with when I was still pretty fresh to the server.
As it turns out, it's not an easy thing to do, there are a lot of nuances to the map and its design that took me a while to work out. It took huge amounts of time, modification, testing, and revision. I might of been painting in a 2 dimensional plane but everything would render in 3 dimensions when put into MC, which was hard to get my little arty brain around. It was quite the learning experience, but one that I found rewarding when it reached a state that I could call finished.
x3 Really though, All of that is only the canvas for the builders to get started on.~

Is the actual town built yet or whatever?
IS there even a town?
MAYBE THERE'S A MASSIVE CITY
