How to build a giant Dirt in Minecraft
The Dirt block, 16 times bigger: every pixel of its real texture becomes one block. Plan it, gather the exact blocks and build it layer by layer.
- 16 × 16 × 16 blocks (wide × tall × long)
- 1,352 blocks hollow (21 stacks + 8), 4,096 solid
- 16 layers from the bottom up
- 7 kinds of block
Blocks you need
For the hollow build at real size, with 1-block walls. In the builder you can pick other block groups, a different size (½× up to 16×) or a solid build, and the list changes with it.
| Block | Count |
|---|---|
| Brown Wool | 568 (8 stacks + 56) |
| Brown Mushroom Block | 344 (5 stacks + 24) |
| Stripped Jungle Wood | 204 (3 stacks + 12) |
| Brown Concrete | 190 (2 stacks + 62) |
| Andesite | 22 |
| Cyan Terracotta | 18 |
| Stripped Spruce Wood | 6 |
How to build it
- Plan: choose the blocks you have, the size, hollow or solid, and the build direction.
- Gather: get the exact block list in stacks and shulker boxes, or download it as a Litematica schematic.
- Build: place one layer at a time, with a 3D view and a 2D map of each layer that counts the blocks in every row.
