Cirno Day Build (Video)

[Luna Pixu]

It's that time of the year where we all gather round to celebrate the strongest fairy of them all, Cirno. On 9/9, Yukkuricraft's Gensokyo was completely covered in snow and its major buildings (except the Hakurei Shrine and SDM basement) had their walls turned to snow and ice.

For special events, it is known that I like to do special projects. Specifically, Minecraft builds. Last year, on 2/12 (or 12/2 if you're American), I made a large pixel Reimu Hakurei for Keychain's Birthday along with a cake and firework display. You can see the videos and the thread for it here.

This Cirno day, I decided to do the same thing. Another pixel art build. But this time... IT'S NOT CIRNO! As people know, Cirno (along with Kaguya and Marisa) is one of my least favourite Touhou characters. I seriously cannot stand her. So, as the big "f*ck you" to Cirno, I decided to build the Three Fairies of Light: Sunny Milk, Star Sapphire, and Luna Child. With the assistance of Leon (99465), I spent approximately 5 or so hours on the fairies. The build spanned from 7PM (GMT) on Cirno day to 3:15PM (GMT) the next day.

Due to the sheer amount of time that I had spent on the fairies, I have had to divide each individual fairy build up into separate videos. Here are the videos for each fairy build:

Spoiler: Facts

• Initially, I was going to LARP as Star Sapphire for the duration of Cirno Day while (very obviously) feigning appreciation for Cirno. But, in a conversation with a friend and Leon, I decided to instead build Star. Following this, I then got the idea for the build you see before you.
• Luna's video had to be re-rendered and reworked several times due to errors in Sony Vegas. Several hours of editing time were lost to simple software issues.
• My display drivers crashed twice during recording. The first was caught in footage while the other corrupted a portion of Star's footage.
• Due to the accidental inclusion of IOSYS' Hinarin's Relation of Misfortune, I got my first content ID on my videos.
• Sunny Milk's video is my official 100th uploaded video!
• Sunny is the only fairy which I mostly did solo. While I did start on Luna alone and finish Star alone, Sunny was the fairy that I spend the most time building alone. Interestingly enough, Sunny is my least favourite fairy of the trio (but not my least favourite fairy).
• All three fairies shared the same palette in their source art. Due to this, I used the same blocks for each fairy. This is why Sunny's dress is plum instead of scarlet.
• Star is the only fairy to have every block in the palette present.
• The total file-size of the (usable) recordings is 37.3GB.
• Several times during the video, I accidentally switched to Japanese keyboard mode. As both a guide for viewers and obstruction for recording derps, the fairy pictures were put in the same location as the prompt for keyboard switching.

So, as TRXD posted his Cirno day video here, I guess it's a good place to post mine too. No need for too many threads, right.

This video is just some cinematic shots at Gensokyo during Cirno day. Oh, and I'm kind of sorry for those times when the camera appears kind of choppy. Don't know what's causing it really. It's just something that appear at times when I'm recording (not because of low framerate).

I'm glad I changed the shrine in time XD

Updated OP with Sunny Milk's video. Was supposed to do it 4-5 hours ago but I've been having too much fun watching the Mindcrack Marathon.

Lagging right now and I can barely watch the thing. Worse yet, I was disconnected at a really big moment too. (T___T)
