Best materials to build a statue in Minecraft

Before going into the details of the procedure on how to make a statue in Minecraft, I think it may interest you to discover the best materials to make a structure of this type.

Well, my advice is to use materials that are as strong as possible, so that the enemies cannot easily destroy the statue. In particular, the crushed stone, the slab of stone, the stone bricks and the ‘ smooth andesite are all excellent materials that have both a good yield visual that a certain resistance.

You can get 6 stone slabs by combining 3 stone blocks, which are found around the game world and can be obtained by using a simple stone pickaxe. In case you haven’t created a stone pickaxe yet, you can do so by joining 3 crushed stone blocks (arranged at the top) and 2 sticks (arranged in the middle of the second and third-row) across the 3 x 3 crafting grid.

If you don’t have the latter yet, just create it by inserting 4 blocks of wood (or other material) in the crafting menu and thus obtaining a workbench. You can access the 2 x 2 crafting grid from Survival mode by pressing the E (PC), Triangle (PS4 / PS3),   Y (Xbox One / Xbox 360) or X (Nintendo Switch) key. L ‘ andesite can be found in the game world by destroying blocks with stone pickaxe but, to make it smooth, we must join four blocks of andesite between them.

Stone bricks are built by combining four stone blocks, while stone brick steps are obtained by placing step-shaped stone bricks in the 3 x 3 crafting grid. A chiseled stone brick is made by combining 2 stone brick slabs.

In case you also want to create a kind of “torch”, you will also need to stock up on a block of Netherrack and a flintlock. The first is located in the area of ​​the game called Nether and can be obtained through the use of a pickaxe, while the flint can be created by combining an iron ingot and flint in the crafting menu.

To get an iron ingot, you must find some raw iron by destroying blocks with the pickaxe and obtain a block of coal: the latter is made by combining 9 Coal objects, which can be found by destroying the blocks of raw coal with the pickaxe. But you will also need a furnace, which is made from 8 blocks of crushed stone in the 3 x 3 crafting grid (leaving the center block empty).

To get the flint, you have to destroy gravel blocks using a Shovel. If you don’t have a Shovel yet, you can craft it by joining any type of board (either an iron ingot, a gold ingot, or a block of crushed stone) with 2 sticks. The latter, on the other hand, are created by combining 2 different types of axes in the crafting menu. In turn, the planks are made from logs, which can be obtained from trees.

As for the crushed stone, however, I suggest you take a look at my guide on how to make a Cobblestone Generator or an infinite generator of crushed stone. To create a statue, you will therefore need to stock up on a large number of stone blocks, stone bricks, chiseled stone bricks, stone brick steps, stone slabs and polished andesite blocks.

How to make a statue in Minecraft

After explaining what they are and how you get the materials needed to create a statue in Minecraft, I would say that you are ready to start setting up a structure of this type. In any case, my advice is to first practice in the Creative mode, where you already have all the materials you need. The statue we are going to create is one of the most widespread and used by the Minecraft community.

The first thing to do is to place a chiseled stone brick. This type of brick will outline the width of the base on which you will build the statue. I therefore advise you to find an area with a lot of free space, since the structure will occupy a lot of it.

At this point, place 4 crushed stone blocks to the right of the chiseled stone brick and place another chiseled stone brick at the other end of the structure.

Next, place 4 more crushed stone blocks to extend the structure and, at their end, place an additional chiseled stone brick.

Now, continue like this until you get a closed square-shaped structure.

Once this is done, “fill” the inner part of the base with crushed stone blocks.

At this point, surround the structure with stone slabs and you will have built the base on which you will go to build the statue.

Once this is done, place a stone brick step near the edge of the base. Then place  2 stone bricks in front of the previously placed steps.

Now, place a stone brick step on top of the 2 stone bricks. Then extend the structure with a stone brick placed next to the step.

Now place another stone brick step. Once this is done, place 2 stone bricks on the left of the structure, starting them from the step created earlier.

At this point, make a hole in the base of the structure and jump into it.

From this location, build a stone brick step underneath the 2 stone bricks placed earlier. Remember to cover the hole you made with a block of crushed stone.

Now go to the front of the structure and place a stone brick. Then extend the structure by placing a stone brick step.

Next, place  4 stone bricks at the top of the structure and extend the statue in height by placing 4 blocks of polished andesite.

At this point, place another 4 blocks of smooth andesite to the right. Then move to the right side of the statue and place 3 blocks of andesite down to create the arm.

Next, place a  stone brick step at the base of the arm to create the statue’s hand.

Now, move to the other side of the structure and place 3 blocks of andesite to the right, so as to form the other arm as well. Remember to place a  stone brick step at the end of the arm, thus creating a hand.

Now place a Netherrack on top of the statue’s hand. Then use the ‘ tinder box above Netherrack to light the fire and complete the statue.

Perfect, now you have created your statue and you can finally show it to your friends. In case you want to create other types of statues or have more information on the objects mentioned, I suggest you take a look at the Minecraft encyclopedia, an inexhaustible source of information about the Mojang title, or search for videos on YouTube.
