How to build an Iron Golem statue in Minecraft
The Iron Golem 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.
- 26 × 43 × 15 blocks (wide × tall × long)
- 2,728 blocks hollow (1 shulker box + 15 stacks + 40), 5,920 solid
- 43 layers from the bottom up
- 15 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 |
|---|---|
| White Terracotta | 980 (15 stacks + 20) |
| Mushroom Stem | 627 (9 stacks + 51) |
| White Concrete | 444 (6 stacks + 60) |
| Smooth Quartz | 166 (2 stacks + 38) |
| Lime Terracotta | 136 (2 stacks + 8) |
| Brown Mushroom Block | 114 (1 stack + 50) |
| Light Gray Terracotta | 102 (1 stack + 38) |
| Lime Concrete | 93 (1 stack + 29) |
| Brown Terracotta | 26 |
| Yellow Wool | 17 |
| Cracked Nether Bricks | 6 |
| Light Gray Concrete | 6 |
…and 3 more kinds of block, listed in the builder.
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.
