I love the thumbnail for this one!

The hermits build truly amazing stuff, but Bdubs just turns it into an absolute art honestly. So much detail and originality that he puts into it

man the shift in colors genuinely makes the building look like it’s surrounded by a smoky haze 😍😍that is ART

Bdubs is a Minecraft artist, I’ve no idea how he has managed to take something that looks like it’s from Blade runner and make it in game. Thank you Bdubs.

He fixed his sprinklers! His neighbors have nothing to worry about when it comes to his qualifications. Bdubs the Perfect Redst.... Electrician and his electric personality will shock you with his skills!

I can’t explain why, but I felt so much joy from Bdubs telling me his sprinkler story

"you can do anything, even when it seems it's very very hard. If you just try, it might take you a long time" ~ Bdouble

I think it would be great to put up some instructions at the horse pop shop

Bdubs trying to draw our attention to the bottom part of the new shop, meanwhile me admiring the intricate dark and broken down upper half of the shop !! xd. Amazing as always !!!

Always love to see Bdubs just doing some stuff and telling a story, reminds me of the early building with Bdubs videos and stories about playin' saxophone

I love that Bdubs has graduated from gradients to graduations. Looks great to me!

Hearing Bdubs say his kids are 7 and 9 hit me... I have no clue how longs I've been watching and that really put it into perspective. It's been a great journey for us fans seeing him become a father and watch his content evolve over these years

I’m gonna be real, that little intro lesson was something that I needed to hear right now, and I really wasn’t expecting it! Right now I’m working on getting a bachelors degree in Mechatronics and Robotics and last semester I failed all but one of my classes. I had a talk with a few people, and we came to the conclusion that I should take much less classes every semester, just one or two so that I can really focus on learning the material. Today I was going to look at and reconfigure my schedule that I had planned before I knew my grades. So here, already two years into college, it may take me another four to get that degree. It’s going to be very hard, and it’s going to take me a long time, but I will do it. I can do anything, you can do anything!

The build really looks great at night. It fits into that cyberpunk feel. Down at ground level everything is bright and eye catching, ultra-illuminated by neon and fluorescent lights. But it's when you look up that you notice the low-hanging smog of the city, the light pollution turning everything the same hazy shade of dark. It's inviting yet smothering at the same time, I love it.

I gotta say, this building might be my favorite build of the season?? That gradient creates such a cool effect, with just the right amount of silhouetted detail! I could see a whole little cyberpunk burrow of the shopping district that looks like this, and it would be the coolest little spot on the server by far!

For me, both Bdubs and Pearl changed building in MC into a higher form of art ❤

Boomers shop had an exploded second floor this one is full soot upstairs. Your builds are so detailed and tells its own story. Impeccable shading! The shop's very eye-catching the dark top is so unusual like a silhouette ppl would notice it right away. Scar has to be taught a lesson... replace a few blocks of his builds here and there with pink glazed terracotta and some of his floor with bamboo mosaic 😂

nailed the burned and devastated look of this. the amount of details squeezed into those builds is great.

The way that shop is pretty much half covered in darkness reminds me alot of concept art, specifically the kind you'd see for large cities where lighting is prioritized to get across the overall feeling. It's honestly kinda trippy (while also being cool as heck), cause it genuinely does feel like it was picked out of a artbook or something

Scar is asking for it! You could extend the horse-curse with some perfect redstone. Set up some custom music discs of the horse galloping sound around his base that play randomly. Or just play it in voice chat and deny hearing anything. Should make him feel horse-haunted.

10:40 What an awesome shot! With the silhouette of Scar's castle in the background and the rainy weather makes everything look so dramatic!

I have to say my eyes were mostly drawn toward the detail at the top contrasting with the sky, but I can appreciate the windows too. They look amazing

I love how the building is so colourful and then fades up into total shadow, it looks really cool!

I would never have thought to use netherbrick to bring out the red/pink tones in the weathered copper, that’s absolutely beautiful! Man you are such a genius with colour palettes, every time I think I couldn’t get more impressed you pull off something else beautiful!

Just curious, how is your adventure dungeon project behind the magnificent enormous mountain door going? You're not forgetting it, right?

That build is simply gorgeous. I am stunned and my jaw is on the floor. Bdubs outdoes himself once again.

I thought that thumbnail was edited to hide the full build but that was actually in-game!! Incredible work as always

Shout-out to the notification gang

The color blend job on that new build (which we have absolutely no idea what it’s for…) is absolutely gorgeous!

Bdubs is easily the best minecraft creator on KZfaq

I love that Bdubs can't even keep his own secrets! He just casually reveals it and then just goes with it instead of over-editing the video.

Red Nether Brick also has the walls and fences, and that block is used very rarely.

Bdubs is always so joyful to watch. He makes me smile even on sad days

The gradient reminds me of like an ominous building that in animation darkens the top of it while its a bright bottom part of it. It looks so cool!

That story at the beginning, Bdubs looks like exactly the kind of guy who would be like "I'mma do it myself!"

The building looks like a fire broke out up top and burned half of it to a skeleton, which honestly is really cool. If you built with this sort of color graduation inside of something - for example a cistern - you could make something tall disappear up into the ceiling and give the viewer (from the bottom) the impression that it's taller than it is

Holy moly, Bdubs! You’re such a magician creating your fantastic builds! They really feels like they have a history to tell.

Watching Bdubs progress as an artist all these years has been just such a cool experience. Great build!

"Nobody uses nether bricks!" Me: Cool people use nether bricks. Unique color special favorites

I love how bdubs made a build thats best contextualized at night but he is the reason the server is almost always day time.

such a smart idea to add ~block blending~ where lights are supposed to be.. and your brutalism practice is really shining through with how nice the build looks even with all netherrack!! super inspiring as always

the silhouette of this build is beautiful! can't get over the style if your videos, they're always wonderful.

I love the AC on that building. Really ties it together as a modern derelict cyberpunk building.

This build is blowing my mind! I honestly thought the thumbnail had blacked out parts to hide details for the video reveal, but the nether bricks are so much darker than I realised

BDubs never disappoints when it comes to cool builds

When you said the ages of your children my face dropped. I feel like they were just born and to think that your oldest is now around the age I started watching you, Amazing how time flys. Thank you for all the wonderful entertainment you have provided me throughout thous years!!!

Amazing build.. I can picture a whole bunch of buildings like that in a city type environment. Narrow streets, crowded. Neon signs near bottom and dark tops.

Electrical is basically Redstone so you did real life Perfect Redstone!!! Good job Dad!

Good job, you dismantled any doubt that the sprinkler was in fact broken. 👏👏

The shop looks AWESOME! Is is going to be a competing record shop right next to Rens record shop?😂 Just like the museums?

I love how the building just ascends into shadows so gracefully. Pretty much reversing how it normally would happen

Scar probably found that one scene from Godfather to be hilarious lol

The shop is looking great! "Tipping my hat"

The way you started out this video by saying "You can do pretty much anything if you try your heart out" , it convinced me to not give up on the people and thing I love, which recently felt like we're slipping away from me. I'm not gonna let that happen again to me. Thank you Bdubs for making me realise that "I can do anything".

Bdubs, in the future if you ever run into broken underground wires, use automotive butt connectors + shrink tube because you can make it water tight. Wire nuts won’t keep the water out of the wires when you go to bury them again.

The new building looks like the view of a tall city building seen at night, with the bottom illuminated by neon signs and shop windows and the top dark, with only the silhouettes of fire escapes and antennas visible.

Yes! I definitely needed a new Bdubs video today

18:04 I love how Bdubs is looking for a smithing table and he walks right past it. I'll also say that the top of the shop is a bit too dark too make out any detail. I think that's a bit of a shame! But I'll also say that I think if you add a lighter block as windows up top, it might make the details pop a bit without having to over do it. It'll make it look like lights are coming through from upstairs or that you can look through the building and see the sun from the other side. A lot of backgrounds do that sort of thing with really dark buildings to keep them recognizable as buildings.

The dark sulphur stained look on top is actually an amazing idea for an industrial build. It looks like it could be in an environment that gets frequent acid rain or something. I'm feeling inspired to make a dingy, polluted industrial town build now.

Everyone on this server is an amazing builder, but I've never seen a cyberpunk-esque abandoned factory or apartment block (what this most looks like to me) design in Minecraft ever. I absolutely love the appearance of this sort of thing in artwork, but it's even more amazing to see in the game.

I love how real Bdubs keeps it

"I must have a smithing table around here somewhere" he says as he walks right by one.

The all dark top of the building makes it look shadowed, like the sun is right behind it. In fact, when the sun is, in fact, right behind it, it looks magical. Bdubs you just invented vanilla shaders

Can we take a moment and appreciate that Bdubs, who hates the nether, is collecting a ton of nether bricks in chainmail armor. Bravery is not being unafraid, bravery is being afraid and doing it anyway. In chainmail. For art.

New shop make me think of cyber punk aesthetic. The dark top kind of forces the sense of shadow and gloom in contrast to the bright bottom. It's a killer aesthetic and build!

once again...pushing beyond the limits of what's thought to be building...true mastery

There are so many amazing builders on the hermitcraft server it’s crazy, but bdubs’ sort of shading with blocks will always stand out to me as above and beyond everyone else.

My brain shorted on that build reveal. In the rain, it really made the build pull together in such a way that I felt I wasn't even looking at a Minecraft build anymore. Scar was right, man. You're not a builder, you're an artist. You paint with blocks and it's fantastic.

Way to go on the sprinklers! Really loved the editing on the Chopsticks timelapse-right with the beat.

The building looks like steam punk noir, very intricate in detail but implies a well lit street with overcast buildings. I'm inspired to make an entire building like this.

Literally thought the building in the thumbnail was edited to be black/half revealed, wasn't expecting it to be exactly that.. truly genius!

Another amazing build! The "graduations" from copper to nether brick...chef's kiss!!!

There’s nothing like rolling up your sleeves and solving a problem. It really makes you realize that professional plumbers and electricians are worth every penny.

The “glow” you’ve created around that yellow fluorescent light is chefs kiss bdubs!!!

First time seeing a build like this. Gives a cool night city type vibe. Extremely impressed! Honestly wish I could see a whole city built with this build method now haha.

When bdubs showed the two color contrast blocks and then showed the transition blocks of the build’s palette i literally leaped out of my seat and leaned closer like NO FRICKING WAY thats a BEAUTIFUL color graduation LIKE HOW DO U EVEN FIND THAT AND FIGURE THAT OUT? JUST FINAGLING IN CREATIVE? Insanity.

the fact that he's looking at the walls and decor for the smiting table is hilarious he doesn't have a designated space for it, but it's sure to have been used in building at some point lmaoo

The character development there, Freecam went from Cheaty-cam in it's first appearances to now fly-cam as of now

This build genuinely changed me somehow. I can’t explain it, but I feel different.

A shadowy skyscraper would be so rad for a Gotham city build, or a cyberpunk skyline. Storm clouds above it would be so rad!

Perfect armor trim! and my god, Bdubs is a monster at building, damn!!!

It’s so weird how good the building looks. I’ve never seen something like that. You are talented!

Also, trimming chainmail is a massive flex. Spending 8 diamonds on pants that still suck is awesome. Cub gets it

I was waiting for the 'I found the root of the problem' dad joke throughout the story about fixing the sprinkler but it ended up being pretty wholesome.

I wired all the electrical in my own house, and that little story time, well let’s just say I really felt it. You can absolutely do ANYTHING if you keep at it long enough!

This build is gorgeous, however 14:20 this side doesn't pop like the other sides do. I think it's because on the other sides, there is a unique silhouette in the netherbrick portion, which this side is lacking.

That wire-job looks even sketchier than your normal redstone 😬 Hopefully you're insulating it against water better than in that picture.

If Bdubs wouldn’t have mentioned the TNT in the Build i wouldnt have noticed it.

Scar accidentally terrorizing his fellow hermits has become a staple of hermitcraft, at this point I think the whole server has a scar curse.

I think it's clear that the new building is a forced perspective work of art designed to look like it looms way back in the distance, faded in shadow, as a villainous lair!

That trim on the chainmail gives it a very 'King Arthur" look. Very cool.

Been rewatching a lot of OLD hermitcraft but I really think that Season 9 is probably one of the best - you can really see how everyone learns and takes things with them from each season

I’m just blown away. Every time I watch Bdubs I get inspired to try new things in game :0

11:14 Horsey guy goes fight or flight mode at the sound of shots fired. Priceless! Granted HotGuy's incompatibility with BDubs' horseys, this is perfectly understandable. Nice video BDubs! 😂

If you hadn't explained the pallette before the build, I would've been trying to figure out how you got the lighting to be that dark on only the top half of the building. It looks like when people block the sky out to get a darkness effect like etho's shady-e-e's in season 7, but totally blacked out. Absolutely incredible

That building looks so good. Like it's at night and only the bottom is illuminated by the neon signs.

It's like Bdubs took it as a personal challenge to build with blocks that people hate. Diorite and netherbrick have never looked so good as they do this season

I've never seen a build like this, it's amazing. I now want to see a whole city like this!

This feels like a whole new building style. I love it so much! And I will definitely use this in the future! Thank you for this artistic inspiration - not just in this build, but in all builds that you make.

I love the new building, when I saw the thumbnail I thougth that it was just blacked out to not spoil anything, then I liked how it looks like it's in shadow, then I understood that it has exploded.
