“This project is huge, and is going to last several years,” adds Krug. They are also facing a shortage of members, especially from countries like India that remain largely unscaled. Because of this, they routinely see members tired after a year of working. This is a project without any financial incentive and has no end in the foreseeable future because of the large scale it operates on. The team is battling the loss of motivation in some of the members. Mukesh Ambani’s 27-storey Antilia, built by HER0B0SS#8272 (Source: Build the Earth) They have built the famous Ambani residence Antilia, but Andrew says they want to work on building landmarks like the Gateway of India and the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel. But they do have big plans for the country, especially Mumbai. Even though the Malaysian builder has never seen the Taj in real life, through Google Maps, Google Earth and other sources which gave him the accurate dimensions of the monument and its complex, he finished the project last year in December.Īpart from the Taj Mahal, some parts of Mumbai, Bangalore and Varanasi have also been remade in the game. I had to measure everything by myself to find out how big the complex and the buildings are,” says Tan. “The monument is not pictured perfectly on Google maps and has several distortions. The process of recreating the white marbled monument and its entire compound was slightly complicated. “Because it hadn’t been recreated in the project before September last year, I decided to take on it as my first big landmark project.” “The Taj Mahal is one of my favourite monuments in the world-it is one of the seven wonders of the world and iconic,” says Daniel Tan, the Minecraft builder who worked to materialise the monument. The 42-acre complex was built and finished over three long months. For the other parts of the world, it is different: India has seen one of its first finished projects in the Taj Mahal. So far, cities like London and New York have been mapped almost entirely. While the progress they’ve made in the past year is huge, “in the grand scheme of things, it is barely anything”, says Krug. A post shared by Build The Earth to their website, they have 4237 ongoing build projects, which together cover about 6275 square kilometres.
