A hot air balloon
Made in Blocksmith from “a hot air balloon”.

“A hot air balloon” does not use the castle shape. The offline reader switches to the vehicle and object list, and a balloon is an envelope over a basket, not a round house on stilts. The envelope is banded so it reads as panels of cloth, the basket hangs under it, and the whole thing is allowed to float: the scene is marked so Blocksmith does not pour a foundation down to the ground and ruin the shape.
That float is the detail that used to go wrong. A balloon with a pillar of dirt under the basket is a balloon on a stick. This one is the envelope, the ropes or the gap, and the basket. The block count includes the envelope, which is most of the build, and the basket, which is the small part you would stand in.
Colour comes from the wish’s palette. A hot air balloon with no colour named still gets a bright envelope, because a grey balloon disappears against a sky made of the same grey. You can repaint the bands in the app without a new wish. The picture here is one seed, rendered once for the gallery.
