Um hi? I'm Sammie (duh) and I have absolutely no idea how this all works 
Best way to learn is to do it so yeah, I'm attempting to make a post to show off the things I build. Some of it is based off others builds I've seen online and some of it is all me.
Might as well start with my very first one (and if none of these images work, I apologize. Like I said, I have no clue how any of this works. That I even found how to put in a spoiler is a miracle)
Now we get into my newer builds, most of which are one one central world. I like to refer to it as Grand Central Station.
And now for my grand finale (even though its not done yet), I present my biggest and greatest project so far.
So yeah, those are my builds, at least the ones that are finished. I have a few ideas I either haven't finished or just haven't started yet.
Current Ideas include;
An Underground City
A bunch of Skylands
Cosmic Observatory
The Cloud Factory
Pirate Island/Fort
The Temple of the Blood Moon
A random Mine (I actually have no idea how minecart tracks work, this gives me a chance to learn)
You know, looking at that list, apparently I really like big builds. Big COMPLICATED builds. OH! Maybe I should build a space ship!

This is my first ever little build, I didn't know what I was doing so I started with a box and expanded from there. The underground springs and floaty dirt patches are natural, not manmade. I lost this one when I accidentally deleted the world. I kinda miss it and will probably end up recreating it sometime. This picture is actually the incomplete one, before losing it, I expanded the terrarium to the right and added a basement level. Afraid I can't find anything later
Ah the treehouse. This was my first big build, inspired by one I saw in a video. I'm a sucker for all things treehouses so it had to be done. I actually still have this build and have worked on finishing it up but no longer really use it for my base of operations. I plan on updating it sometime after 1.3
This hill was perfectly placed so I turned it into a hobbit house and made it a base of operations for that world. I still have this one as well and am looking into expanding it because underneath the hill is quite the expanse of caves 
Now we get into my newer builds, most of which are one one central world. I like to refer to it as Grand Central Station.
The Pirate Ship, like the treehouse, is based on a build I saw online. This one a friend showed to me and so I set out to make my own ship. The lake its sitting in is also hand made. I learned that building with explosives can be INCREDIBLY fun 
This one I'm actually working on redoing for Khaios' contest. I don't think I'll win but its fun to try
This one I'm actually working on redoing for Khaios' contest. I don't think I'll win but its fun to try This one is based off another build as well. I was mostly trying to replicate its balcony and weird ceiling shape. Plus Palm is like my favorite wood in the game so I won't pass up an excuse to use it. The Pirate Ship is moored next to it.
This one is actually located under the lakehouse, reached by a tunnel at the bottom of the lake. I was trying to find a way to incorporate the tunnel in a build and what better than a secret hideout? Despite my intense love of Sunplate and Skyware, this is actually my only build using those materials. I should remedy that
This was a fun build to do. Next to the Lakehouse was a hill and I wanted some way to incorporate it into a build so I flattened it out and put a house on top! I'm planning some renovations once 1.3 comes out. The kitchen could use some sinks and granite might make better pillars. The clustered Attic space is actually considered proper housing, at least for NPCs.
My main base on Grand Central Station, is this amazing tree Penthouse I did. I have this thing about incorporating existing features into builds and this tree literally sets between the Manor and the Poolhouse. So I built me a new treehouse Oh yeah, the teleporter here leads down to Sanctuary or to the right to a different build, listed down below
Oh yeah, the teleporter here leads down to Sanctuary or to the right to a different build, listed down belowThe Poolhouse, also known as Pool Party Central, is actually incomplete. Its missing something (other than the stairs) but I just don't know what. Hopefully it comes to me sometime. Also that bunny looks like its going for a swim. Oh and the fact that the pillars on the walk way don't like up annoys me to no end. I have GOT to fix that.
This house I build on a different world for an adventure map and loved it so I imported it. And by imported it I mean I painstakingly rebuilt the thing on this world instead 
The Witch Doctor moved right in and made himself at home once it was done. But I moved into the Tree Penthouse so its all good.
The Witch Doctor moved right in and made himself at home once it was done. But I moved into the Tree Penthouse so its all good.One of my absolute favorite builds thus far is this tower. Took a lot of dynasty wood. And its still not really done. Its supposed to have this scattered look to it but I don't think its cluttered enough. Plus its got a few errors like the teleporter doesn't work because it isn't placed right (it has to be lowered)
I wanted to do something to the dungeon so I turned it into a cafe! As you can see, there's no visible entrance into the dungeon anymore but thats easily fixed by flipping the switch on the wall, which opens a hidden passage down into its depths. Somehow a chunk of the walls went missing. I'm not quite sure when/how that happened but its been fixed since then.
I felt like building a lighthouse after checking out Khaois' builds. So I did 
I wanted to do a little temple in the jungle so I built it and then I destroyed it to make it look lost and condemned It was actually meant to be bigger but I thought smaller would be better. Its also not supposed to be lit but that was necessary for the screenshot
It was actually meant to be bigger but I thought smaller would be better. Its also not supposed to be lit but that was necessary for the screenshotBased off an OLD build I discovered (and by old I mean original Terraria), I decided to recreate it. I added some of my own things along the way and later expanded it downwards with a basement. It makes a great base for fighting Blood Moons and it even comes with a panic room. A flick of the switch turns on all the lights off and the red ones on and a second switch activates a timer to activate the King and Queen statues to teleport your NPCs to safety. I plan on redoing this one to be less copy, more original sometime.
And now for my grand finale (even though its not done yet), I present my biggest and greatest project so far.
Inspired by Khaios' Castle in the Clouds, I wanted to do a grand castle build. So I did a take on the castle of the beloved Princess Peach, which I had been wanting to do since my first Treehouse build (thus why there's seemingly random painted stone slab in it). Currently a Work in Progress, I won't be finishing it until after 1.3 since I want to use Granite for it. All the Mithril Brick will be painted pink and a village of Mushroom shaped houses will surround it. I learned during this build that you CAN paint stained glass, which was great for the window portraits. I'm currently doing the work both in game and with tEdit (which was damn helpful getting the shape of it)
Made this for Khaios' build contest, its a flying pirate ship. This build tied for first! I'm so proud of it 
So yeah, those are my builds, at least the ones that are finished. I have a few ideas I either haven't finished or just haven't started yet.

An Underground City
A bunch of Skylands
Cosmic Observatory
The Cloud Factory
