Tricera Town is a mega-build (a mega triceratops) created by Fazaden during Revision 22.

The vast majority of the triceratops is made from lime terracotta (over 88,000 blocks!), which involved mining and cooking dozens of shulkers full of clay. Fazaden spent a lot of the early rev running around the map to train his horse, so he could just stop near any lakes full of clay, dig down a bit, and mine out the bottom layers of clay leaving the top intact. (On a fun sidenote, if anyone ever hunted for clay that rev and found a big empty space underneath, that would probably be Fazaden's handiwork. He also forgot at least 3 shulkers full of clay somewhere, and they are now scattered and abandoned around the SE part of the map.)

Another important detail that aided the construction of the giant green triceratops was the biome in which it was built: a very special kind of swamp biome, which had a 3 block layer of terracotta right under the dirt (there's a huge empty cavern under Fazaden's claim now). For the dye itself, Fazaden rigged up a cactus farm for green, and hung out at a skelly spawner for white.

The sunglasses and horns are black and white concrete, which involved a bit of a pain digging up sand and gravel in the nether.
