How to build a Cow statue in Minecraft
The Cow from the real game model, turned into blocks: one block for every pixel of its texture. Plan it, gather the exact blocks and build it layer by layer.
- 12 × 25 × 25 blocks (wide × tall × long)
- 1,604 blocks hollow (25 stacks + 4), 3,360 solid
- 25 layers from the bottom up
- 12 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 |
|---|---|
| Gray Terracotta | 577 (9 stacks + 1) |
| Stripped Dark Oak Wood | 431 (6 stacks + 47) |
| White Concrete | 145 (2 stacks + 17) |
| Cyan Terracotta | 137 (2 stacks + 9) |
| Smooth Stone | 117 (1 stack + 53) |
| Stone | 99 (1 stack + 35) |
| Black Concrete | 44 |
| Stripped Cherry Wood | 34 |
| Light Gray Terracotta | 10 |
| Gray Concrete | 6 |
| Light Gray Concrete | 2 |
| Snow Block | 2 |
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.
