Me and my girl started a new realm and we’re really aiming it to be our forever world. We want to take on a mega base build in the style of a castle and have it overlooking a village of random houses / buildings. Does anyone have any suggestions on tutorials out there that can help us? We play with local mods installed and I believe that means we can use schematics.. I could be wrong.

This will be our first ever mega base build so a tutorial would be so useful..

Any help would be very much appreciated!

https://www.planetminecraft.com/project/cultist-castle-schematic/ castle was made as a part of a map for Lich's Christmas event, outside was done by me and the interiors were done by my friend

Description: I've been working on this for months. It's inspired by a piece of concept art that I found for the Horizon:zero dawn game. It's a vast build with multiple areas to explore, including caves, a large underground dungeon/prison, multiple rooms spread throughout with many access points.This build was originally my create:above and beyond base and was attached to the side of a large mountain range. On request I have ripped it away from the mountains and converted it into it's own island, which is perfect for ocean based modpacks and for those wanting a little solitude from the mainland :)

The base comes with a slight challenge. I removed the create lifts I had in place, firstly because I would of had issues trying to copy it with building gadgets and secondly because I thought it would be better for you to try and figure out your own way of installing a create style lift. You will see the obvious spots where the lifts are intended.
