How to build Doge in Minecraft

Such statue. Very shiba. A 40-block-tall Doge sitting on a lawn with ginger fur, a cream muzzle and chest, the famous eyebrow dots and that unmistakable sideways glance, while "wow", "such build", "very block" and "amaze" float around it in clashing colours.

Open the interactive 3D plan above to build it one layer at a time: every layer has a numbered top-down plan, a block list and full-screen step-by-step instructions you can tick off as you go. You can also download it for Litematica, WorldEdit or Minecraft Bedrock, or view it in your room in AR.

Building tips

1. Build the body as three blobs first (haunches, upright chest, head) and only then paint the cream chest and muzzle over them.
2. The side-eye is the whole joke: both pupils sit on the west side of each eye with a white sliver on the east side. Get that right before anything else.
3. Mix a little orange terracotta into the yellow terracotta along the back and top of the head so the fur looks darker on top, just like a real shiba.
4. For the floating words, stand on scaffolding or a temporary dirt pillar, then break the support away. Two layers deep keeps them readable from an angle.
5. Comic Sans is not in Minecraft, so the letters are round and wobbly on purpose. Wow.
