I had to use barrier blocks to prevent them from staging a break out (barrier blocks are invisible blocks that can only be accessed using commands when cheats are enabled).

LEGO’s build looks wonderful, but it doesn’t prove very effective in the game because the chickens were able to jump on to the jungle planks and escape their pen. In an attempt to resolve the discrepancy, I used two gates. In the LEGO build, there is one gate that spreads across four studs, but most LEGO Minecraft sets use 2 studs as the width of a block. It was around this point where I encountered the first scaling problem. I started by adding jungle planks before adding fences on the necessary blocks. I kept him from moving by forcing him to sit.Īfter adding the wolf, I moved on to the chicken pen itself. I then pushed him into the correct position. After dying its collar with light blue, blue and cyan dye, I eventually settled on blue dye. I spawned a wolf and tamed it with some bones. The tamed wolf was also a small hurdle, as I struggled to decide what Minecraft colour was being represented by its collar. Unfortunately, Minecraft tools cannot rest against the side of blocks (I could have used an item frame but I ultimately decided that this would detract from the build). The next hurdle was the axe that can be seen resting against the exposed stone blocks. The design I used was one which I found on the planet Minecraft website by a user called Radrobin25. Eventually I decided to give in, and look up chicken banners online. At first, I decided to try and design a similar banner myself but it turns out that making banners in Minecraft is a complicated art form that I have absolutely no talent for.

After a great deal of research, it turns out that this banner cannot be replicated in Minecraft (without making use of a texture pack, mod or some string of commands that I would be unable to fathom). In the set, there’s an azure banner with a chicken sticker on it. I started by building the far right-hand corner of the set. I didn’t want to build anything too big in case replicating the set proved to be nightmarish. I love how the designers scaled up the Minecraft chicken to create this awesome farm design.

Firstly, the chicken build looks absolutely magnificent. I chose to replicate this set for two reasons. The set included an Alex minifigure, multiple chickens and a tamed wolf. Set 21140, The Chicken Coop, was released back in 2018 and retailed for £20. This gave me an idea! Why not try and build these sets in Minecraft? In this article, I attempted to recreate two sets from LEGO Minecraft within the game.įirst, I began by trying to recreate the Chicken Coop. These structures don’t naturally generate within Minecraft. Sets like the Waterfall Base and the Chicken Coop were plucked from LEGO designers’ imaginations.

However, LEGO has also created builds that cannot be found in Minecraft. LEGO has produced sets that depict Villages, Pillager outposts, jungle temples and even ocean monuments. Lots of these sets recreate buildings or scenery that you can find whilst playing the game. LEGO has produced over 50 Minecraft sets since they launched the theme in 2013.
