Joel: it was pretty quick only took about *2 and a half* hours
Me: gets bored after 5 minutes of building
I KNOW!!!! I cant build for that long too!
I can build for like 1 hour For my game crashes or my phone dies and then I get angry and then I don’t play for the rest of the week
Me too i do that too
Yeah I have a short attention span but that’s just what happens when all of my siblings and me have adhd from our mom lol
I have such a short attention span.
It’s kinda sad that this is the *most* normal intro he’s ever done.
Btw I did see the chickens
Very
Facts
Ye
Pamela Mathieson yep
Probably 😂
In this video you find:
Joel roasting his past-self
Hermitcraft simping
And chickens. Dead chickens. A lot of dead chickens
@@shroomie8328 cooked chickens
@@shroomie8328 Grian would not be very happy.
he also roasts his present self.
And now he’s in hermitcraft 😁
Joel: "Use everything"
Me who only has dirt in my inventory: So uh, dirt hut anyone?
I mean.. dirt is actually good if you are making a stone castle
Just mix dirt and moss with the stone
And it looks like a rustic castle
Joel: saying his old builds are bad
Me: looks at my lopsided oak wood tower
Anna Z same but looking at my dirt house with grass on top yes grass!
Blacksun Gacha gotta love them dirt houses 😁😂
Your pfp is soo cuuuuteeeeee
I once built a square tower completely out of glowstone and then lit it up with torches 😂😂😂I was 6 though.
Catherine Taylor LMAO
“Goodbye and hello” Joel this is my new catchphrase thank you
What about the and thank you...
Hey mine to
I love that bro
Yes
Same
Joel and Grian are the reasons I have improved lots in roofs and building in general. Thank you Joel.
to think he used to think he used to take inspiration from the hermits and now he's actually in the server
Joel: **uploads**
*JEREMYS ASSEMBLE!*
Lmaooo
And we must not forget our leader, Joel the Jeremy of all Jeremys
Harry Potter Girl Of 05 lmao
The Canadian regiment is present!
Yessssssssssssssss lets go jeremys!
Everyone watching the start of video: chilling
Me looking at the chickens dying in the background: I m g o i n g t o p r e t e n d I d i d n o t s e e t h a t .
YAY! IM NOT THE ONLY ONE TO NOTICE T>T
I was was just trying to count how many chickens died but of course he cut scenes so I don't know how many died.
Welcome to the smallish beans channel
I d i d n t e v e n n o t i c e t h a t w H a T
I guess I'm so used to it at this point I didn't even notice.
"Goodbye and.. Well hello actually- and thank you"
He is so confused

Hello Fresh, the sponsor of today's video...
Some more tips I’ve learned recently
*Use textured blocks before adding different blocks*: Don’t start with terra-cotta, start with brick or granite, then add terra-cotta and polished granite.
*Use gradients*: Put darker blocks on the bottom to create a gradient that shows a more natural worn look.
*Add trim and edging*: Use a different block on the edges, like what is shown on the roof and with the fences at the top. This can also be done with walls on the corners, or with roads use a different block from the road and sidewalk. Also, adding trim around doors will break up the build and make it look less plain.
*Layer details*: When making a flowerbed, start with leaves or y’all flowers, then add small flowers in front. My favorite combination so far is leaves, then red berry bushes in front.
*Add various custom plants*: When making palm trees, use different kinds, some with jungle logs that bend over, others with fences that stand upright. Bushy trees with hanging trees or for small trees like in cities, lollipop with oval/cone shaped trees.
*Sightlines*: Have a focal point that your build naturally faces or as you walk up to the build it should compliment the view. This will make screenshots of your build much nicer.
*Mix in non-full blocks*: Like with walls, other nonfull blocks break up a build and add detail. Fences, gates, stairs, slabs, glass panes, trap doors, anvils, and carpets are great additions to any build.
*Build at an angel or have rounded edges*: Even for modern builds, there can be a cool angled roof or room that makes the design more interesting.
*Add an interesting fence*: BdoubleO had an interesting fence/wall design for his mansion in Season 7, and in season 6 Keralis made a wall out of trap doors.
thanks for the tips!! ill use some of this!!
His Shrek skin will be missed by all of us. Now who is gonna be yelled out of his swamp?
Ogres! Am I right? Especially swamp ogres, mountain ogres are bad, but swamp ogres are BRUTAL. And then there’s the ogre’s cousins, The Troll. Oh and don’t get me started on the other cousins, the giants. And then there’s the grindylows which are basically smaller, water-dwelling cousins of ogre’s, troll’s, and giant’s cousin. And then the Cornish Pixies, basically the other cousins. And there are THOUSANDS of others
Harry Potter Girl Of 05 EEEEEEEEEEEEE A POTTERHEAD EEEEEEEE :DDDDD
he changed his skin over a month ago lmao
@@leoyori9829 I love harry Potter
Zeytrixx I keep on seeing your comments
we have our youtubers in common,
Joel : even diorite can look go-
Iskall : *No*
Lol
underrated XD
Lol
Lol
Bdoubleo100: yes
My favorite thing for making floors is using furnaces. The top is such a good texture to vary stone floors
Agreed, except very very expensive cuz you would have to need a lot of cobblestone depending on how big your bases are, I mean why not just use block that have the same top texture of a furnace so you know not very expensive?
@@mazendude7420 I present to you…. COBBLESTONE GENERATOR!!!
@@mazendude7420 I don't think there's that many blocks with the same top texture as a furnace. Also, cobblestone isn't that expensive. If your using it early game, you won't need much. If you're building a mega base with it, it'll most likely get finished late game, in which case you should have more than enough cobblestone for a build. Add to the fact that cobblestone is an easily renewable resource via cobblestone generators, and it's pretty clear to see that furnaces are not that expensive to make.
That sounds like a good idea for a survival hosue so I can just use the floor to cook 💀
@@splawshy3346 Fashion & Function
When it comes to medieval style. I personally love mythical sausage and bluenerd. They do great tutorials
Joel: *kills chicken*
Kfc: that's where they all go
Joel and lizzie: *creepy smiles*
What? I’m a little confused what you mean...
The Epic Waffle Greatest. Name. Ever.
I dont undersatand
Lizzies favourite food is kfc. Joel likes killing chickens.
Kentucky Fried Chicken...
But Lizzie’s favourite is kfc
ok but no joke- Joel’s building skills are on a whole other level
Mhm!
Yep
Like omg his hogwarts builds are on a whole other level ;w;
Ever seen Grian or GoodTimesWithScar?
Just realized that he already mentioned them
I love how chickens are just dying in the background
It’s beautiful
Misread this as “children” and boy howdy am I glad that was wrong,
@@kyntak5244 LOL
"Don't be afraid to leave empty space on walls"
Man I really needed to just hear this. It's such a simple concept, but I never really think about it and just use windows all around my houses to make it look interesting from the inside and outside. Leaving empty walls gives you so many more options! Thanks, that one was really helpful
Joel: "I'm lazy..."
Also Joel: *spends 9 hours to knock down a mountain, builds beautiful homes in more than two series, does youtube videos, and take care of two pets that love Lizzie more*
Me, who gets mad after building for 10 minutes: HOW DOES HE DO THAT!!!!
Haha
How does he do that?
honestly same he is also underated
Hahaha
me: "im lazy"
also me: *spends 1 minute feeding the dogs and then watches youtube all day*
me again: "Proved YOU wronf, DIDNT I?"
Me, building:
My friends: Why are you using those blocks? why are you mixing them?
Me: Because i’m not an *amateur*
I’m imagining saying amateur as am-u-ture
@@die4289 lmao
@@br12_ not funny
@@die4289 ok but did they ask?
1:27 little did Joel know, both he and PearlescentMoon would be joining the HermitCraft server.
I’ve taken a lot of inspiration from he and Lizzies builds and I’ve started to actually build interestingly so thank you guys
“We want to keep a certain you tuber happy” - a reference to Iskall (one of the members on the hermitcraft server)
For anyone who didn't know :)
When Joel said that, my brain was like "iSkAlL"
Ty
Yeah I watch a lot of hermitcraft so I understood that reference immediately
Hermitcraft 😌
I actually DIDN"T know that, so thank you.
No one:
Joel: makes an ugly mountain which no one knows what to do with looking absolutely beautiful
Me: cries in dirt house
Ummm you make a dirt hut I make no house at all cause it hurts my eyes even looking at the builds I try to make
Honestly Joel, most of my inspiration comes from your videos. You’re one of the best builders out there in my opinion
I guess another tip you could say is to just have fun with building. Don’t worry about everything being practical and useful. If you want to add a completely useless pile of leaves, then go for it!! Idk- whatever makes you happy with your build in the end is always the best! ✨😌
Joel: I think I’ve improved my building skills
Me: yea me too! I moved from a dirt hut too a stone hut
m y s t e r y ørb I moved from a stone hut to a wood hut
@@Azhar277 wow nice! I just moved from wood hut to a wood shack
hey, everyone starts somewhere!
@@michaelg8841 I went from a wood shack to a wood house
I moved from a villager house to a woodland mansion
joel: *"i've been wanting to improve my building"*
me: **can barely build a good looking minecraft house**
my little sister: *builds glass box* look a zoo! *builds rainbow box with indoor pool* look at my beautiful house! (no literally these are irl examples)
Same tho
I can’t even build a roof without it being un equal
“I can’t even draw a stick figure” energy
This is one off the reasons that you are one of my favorite building youtubers, you take the viewers on a journey of how you got to the final result of your buildings.😀
This video aged perfectly with him now being apart of hermitcraft. The same people who inspired him 3 years ago.
the aesthetic of joel’s builds are so so pleasing..
the overgrown plants, the lights, the shades of green and brown.. like a cozy cottage
@assbeatexr why didnt u keep this in the drafts
Comment: This may be his most normal intro
Me: *Sees Chickens dying in Lava*
Also Me: Uh.....
Were
it’s a normal intro for Joel, lol
wannaseesumrealspeed are you sure I mean out of all of his intros this is probably the most normal
I was so confused at first since the intro was so normal and I didn't realise that was happening until I saw this comment 😅
Wdym? Chickens dying in lava is normal for Joel’s intros
I have gotten lots of inspiration from this channel, but I don't know what blocks look good together! I think spruce and stone bricks look good together in a mountain biome, and their pretty easy to get in survival (hopefully). I've also found out that us bedrock players dont get world edit, so we have to work extra hard.
Oh myyyy, I really love your builds and tips, those help me a lot! Keep going dude :D
When ur so early that u can still see the bots comments

its quite common if you’re british, whereas americans tend to go up

I CAN'T UNHEAR NOW PLS

Joel: "People put windows everywhere."
Me: Is currently having a heart attack watching him break his amazing house.
This actually helped my building skills alot! I am now capable to make lots of designs because of this video :D Tysm for making this video joel! :D
The chickens casually dying in the back in the intro might be the most Joel thing I've ever seen
Why is no one talking about how Joel says “etcetera” like 20 times in this video
Because nobody noticed except you
Maybe because he didn’t know what else to say?
ikr it got so annoying
@@dee4716 yea he can just go like "I'm good you are bad, shut up" :D
me: *doesnt even notice*
Bruh, you are way too humble, you do amazing at building! I actually learned a bit that I can use for my town! Thanks!
I love this house so much! I’ll definitely remember the tips!
Joel: "do you guys remember when i looked like shrek"
Me: "yes-"
Joel: "Me neither"
Me: "i must be a genius-"

@@davidpackham5944 what
Iskall85 Is a Swedish youtuber who spends his time playing on the HermitCraft server with all the "professionals". only reason i know this is causee uhh i watch him often :/
this is really helpful, thank you for taking the time to make and post this
I personally use the Plains biome way to much just because of its mostly flat and blandness, but I am currently experimenting with building in other biomes. I've found a nice cozy island a couple blocks away from a Taiga biome and am building my café on it :)
These tips are going to help me so much making it
"maybe accept diorite. We want to keep a certain youtuber happy"

Joel: "Everyone always builds in plains biomes"
Me and my weird desire to always build in spruce mountain areas, or just mountains in general: ah...
I like to build my bases in caves
I only build my bases in swamp biomes because I’m basically the witch of my minecraft server
i like to build in those snowy taiga mountains biomes
SAME HAT it's my wizard tower instinct!!!!
I like to build a house beside a mountain with a waterfall beside it :^

Joel's House style
Terraforming: Scar
House Walls: Bdubs
Roof: Grian
i wish my building style was t, h, & r: joel ):
The emporers make a king
Let's just get all the professional builder's in one mc server for a day and come back to the most beautiful build mc seen
Nailed it
Back: not grian
Joel: It's A House With A Roof
Me: iT's a gRIaN rOOf
DOES NOBODY ELSE SEE THE CHICKENS IN THE BACK
Idk but why they are there
I did
YUP
I don't really watch your videos, hck this one is half a year old. But it's really cool to see how your small tips make create an impact by taking it step by step.
This is just a great video!
Last time I was this early, Joel was still Shrek
Edit: “S h e r k”
Do u mean shrek
Sherk
Lmao
Did you mean- *ahem* sHaRk
caaaaatraaaa
Sherk that made me laugh so hard
“Very similar to the first side, but this time with a square window”
Joel, this is minecraft, everything is a square.
This is the minecraft community, we go against squares (most of the time at least)

Bdubs' season 6 castle :exist
Iskall:faints
Joel: makes a joke about keeping him happy
Grian:Hold my pesky bird
I liked this comment because I understood for once
@Valentino Merlini-Moorcroft season 7 is final
Lucky Ramirez where did you get this information, because I have never heard that from anyone.
Yes!!!!!
Did you know? In Colorado, USA, there is still an active volcano. It last erupted about the same time as the pyramids were being built in Egypt.
Why do I never upload. 💔💔💔💔
That was random
I live in colorado and it's actually in Wyoming under Yellowstone
ooh cool
Neat fact dude
1:25 its crazy Joel mentions both members of the Hermitcraft server and then PearlescentMoon, who he is now servermates with, *on* said Hermitcraft server. Pearl would have joined a year after this video was posted, almost to the day (Jun 19, 2021). I gotta imagine Joel is living his best MC life right about now. Also, thanks for the tips Joel they were very helpful
This video was incredibly insightful so thanks Sir Smallishbeans
Joel: Do you remember I was once Shrek.
Me: *looks at you tube profile picture*
Me: I remember now
"Do you remember shrek?"
Me: *looks at YT pfp*
I see him. He's right there.

When I build I watch you for inspiration because I think you’re a really good builder
Atleast I learned something. Thank you SmallishBeans. :D
The entire intro i was just watching the chickens die and. barely actually listening to what Joel was talking about.....
Facts
Me too dude, me too.....
I didn't even see that til you mentioned..
When Joel and Joey post a video at the same time and don’t know which one to watch😙✌️
*_cough_* doesn't seem like it *_cough_*
Doesn't seem like Joey wants to watch and to subscribe 😂
Thanks for the great tips!
I always seem to have a problem with building roofs, so this really helped ^^

joel’s building has improved so much . i’m so happy for him . he seems to be having a lot more fun building lately . :’)
I love the fact that he says etcetera in like every sentence.
thank you so much!! your very good at teaching how to build better :D
