Last week in The Daily Quest, you may have seen a YouTube video of a recreation of Darnassus in Minecraft. If you thought that was cool, there’s more where that came from. In addition to Darnassus, YouTuber kattooMC and his servermates resresres1 and nessy27 have also created a scale model of Deathwing (which has made the rounds once before) and, much more recently, Molten Core’s version of Ragnaros.

These Minecraft builds do use game mods or third-party tools, and there are blocks incorporated into the designs that cannot be placed by players (such as the blocks of Coal in Deathwing) — but cool is cool, regardless of how something is made. Many viewers of the Ragnaros video have commented that he looks a bit … green. However, kattooMC assured everyone it was just a result of video encoding. As a Minecraft player myself, I’ll back him up on that. I know what yellow wool blocks look like when I see ’em.

According to kattoo via Twitter, Stormwind is next on their Warcraft to-do list. I, for one, can’t wait to see it.
