So you think you're a great builder?
Well, prove it.
This thread is meant to test your construction talents. Yes, there is a MineCraft Build Museum thread already but the builds there are freebuilds. Here, you'll be tasked with a specific building challenge. Of course, this doesn't mean you can't be creative - the challenges will have rules, but there will be enough leeway.
Don't know what to build? This thread is also perfect for that. Take on one of our challenges and surprise yourself with what you can create.
What are the prizes you ask?
Pure and simple.
Bragging rights.
So enough with the chit-chat. Get to work!

Anyone who is a regular on Classic knows that of all the blocks available to build with, there is only one that is so ugly, that no decent build can be made entirely of it. Heck, even if a build is made up of only 1/3 of this block, it is an abomination. And that block is:
But perhaps, you're good enough to prove me wrong. The challenge, if you choose to accept it, is to make a build that is at least one-third TNT and that doesn't look like puke. When you're done, post a screenshot of it here.
Rules:
1. From the outside, the build must look like it is 1/3 TNT blocks and 2/3 other blocks.
2. The TNT must not, in the slightest way, be interpreted as a platform, stand, or scaffold for a build. So, no non-TNT sprites on a TNT platform.
3. The exception to Rule 2 is for homes. TNT flooring is allowed, but the entire floor must be visible from anywhere on the outside ground floor. If it is not, it breaks Rule 1.
Bonuses:
1. For guest and cool ranks, you get bonus points if you include this build in your promo thread and are eventually promoted.* Please include a link to your promotion thread in your post. (Other builds can be in the thread)
2. For builder+ rank, you get bonus points if your build is not mistaken by others as the work of a guest rank.
3. If, by some miracle, you are promoted in-game for this build, you will have my instant following.
4. Another bonus if the build is 50% TNT. Double bonus if it is 66% TNT. Triple bonus and my following if it is 100%.
* If you can convince me that this build clenched your promotion, you earn my following.

I will do the challenge after finals.
