has anyone tried making a pond in the shape of the pokemon, eevee's head, yet?

cause... well.. in the back of my mind, i think... last night... i wanted to try to make one... but i wasn't sure if it'd be too big 🥴


it's just a thought :3

cause my pokesona is eevee :3
 
A while ago, I tried out to make ponds with specific shapes (although I had to kinda give up the idea because of space problems), so maybe I can help you with some tips I used back then. If you want to make a Eevee shaped pond (which is a very cute idea btw!), I think it's better to make a bigger pond instead of a small one, especially if you care for details and such (like for the ears and face in general). So make sure you find a good spot on your island where the pond would fit without maybe blocking any houses, ways etc. later. What I did was first making a sort of rough outline with a dirt path. Once I liked the way the outline came out, I filled it out part for part with water. I also made then the fine details, like round up the edges etc. It may takes some tries to get the shape as well as the size you want right, but with some patience, it should work. Good luck! :)

Here's a guide you could consider using if you want to give it a try.
 
i thought about doing a mareep-head shaped pond instead, cause i thought it'd be easier... also, cause the sheep is my star-sign :3

either mareep or wooloo :3 but the johto region is my homeland, so ... 🥳

do you think this is a good & big enough spot for either a eevee's head shaped pond, a mareep's head shaped pond or a wooloo's head shaped pond? :unsure:

cause my pokesona is eevee, but my star-sign is a sheep, which points to either mareep or wooloo... but my home region is johto.. soo... 🥳

If you only go for the head, I would say it should be big enough for all three ideas! Also, if you have the space left in that spot to make it bigger or adding any details if needed, then I would go for it. :)

I would have loved to do one of a Croconaw head. I’d love pictures if you make progress on the Eevee pond!

Here's a guide you could consider using if you want to give it a try.



it's proving to be more difficult to do just the outline... i've had to rub it out 3 times already...

i'm not sure if i want to do it anymore... since it's so hard....

but i know i'm giving up to easy...


i think i'll try it again later

If you have some graph paper, it may be worth a try to draw it on paper before terraforming. Or make a graph with as many squares as the space you have there. Remember you can only fill in full squares or half a square diagonally. Making rounded shapes can be pretty tricky.

If you have free slots, you can also make a lake and place an island in the center with a large custom design of Eevee's head.

Something like this:
