I just made a skin, but I need constructive criticism. [url=http://www.minecraft.net/skin/skin.jsp?user=Durandir]Can you see what I tried to make?[/url] If you do, is it good? Should I remove the "cell-shading"?

[QUOTE=LUHG!;23467553]Can anyone help me with water? I can't seem to get it to fill up and go in the direction I want, it's a pain in the ass.[/QUOTE] Can you show us exactly what you're working on? It'll make a little more sense if we can see.

[QUOTE=Alex141;23467392]Sled.[/QUOTE] Downs whale is my favorite. Make a shark?

Gaaarh, just got a weird glitch where I got stuck in midair and can't move. Tried placing and removing blocks on the floor around me, but nothing worked...

[URL=http://img844.imageshack.us/i/group.jpg/][IMG]http://img844.imageshack.us/img844/4015/group.jpg[/IMG][/URL][/QUOTE] I only really like the train and the bear, and that's because they are the only ones that I feel would fit into the minecraft world well. Take the whale for example, it is severely lacking detail and would not look good as a huge block. Although minecraft is a cubular, pixelated art style, the whale and some of your other designs are too cubular.

[QUOTE=BrickInHead;23467954]it looks good but it's physically painful to look at lol, so bright with the contrast[/QUOTE] Hmm. Maybe make it a bit darker. But that is the color of the bandits in the game... Maybe I'll try to make one without the cell-shading, just to see how it turns out.

I swear this game is trolling me. I've been in more than 20 caves which have finished with a dead end. I have 16 stacks of coal and 2 stacks of iron.

Although minecraft is a cubular, pixelated art style, the whale and some of your other designs are too cubular.[/QUOTE] You are quite right, Working with the minecraft style is fun although some of my earlier models were rushed and lack some detail. I do these merely for fun and hope you guys like them. If Notch was ever to add modding support you can count on me to be adding mods (Although I need to polish up my programming skills, unless I can get a team together) and the mods I would make sure they were polished and refined nicely to fit with the environment.

[QUOTE=Nacho Cheese;23468126]I swear this game is trolling me. I've been in more than 20 caves which have finished with a dead end. I have 16 stacks of coal and 2 stacks of iron.[/QUOTE] Go down more.

[QUOTE=venn177;23468155]Go down more.[/QUOTE] Would if I could. I was looking for surface caves, and I normally find one within 5 minutes that leads to the bottom of the map.

[QUOTE=lilcheeselad;23468154]What's the small one all the way to the right?[/QUOTE] The sled. Doesn't come out well due to it being made up from 3 planes all containing alpha maps.

If I saw that motherfucker on the far left while diving I'd shit blocks.

Alright, updated the skin without cell-shading. Which is better? [url=http://www.minecraft.net/skin/skin.jsp?user=Durandir]Not cell-shaded[/url] [url=http://filesmelt.com/dl/BB_Cell_skin.jpg]Cell-shaded[/url]

Definitely without.

Are you business oriented, have you been involved in running one or more companies? Do you know how to talk to government tax people and understand what they reply? Can you work out a legal contract, make suggestions on sound investments and headhunt talented people? Do you like computer games, and understand the internet as a medium as opposed to treating it like a traditional medium? If so, I want to talk to you! [editline]02:45PM[/editline] I love reading the comments on Notch's blog posts. They provide for good laughs :v: "Im 12 and I don't think you'd like me also i speak english mostly i've managed a friend's game yes we had big amount of cash altho then he changed name of game and i do not remember game's name also i had worked in a shop for taxes mostly anyway they letted me talk to them while iw as 12 xD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Also notch look at your e-mails in [email]markus@mojang.com[/email] and look for an email wich ends with (Nightelf21).If you want an 12 English spoken boy who is modeller,have had 1 day expierience on taxes,sure then!"

[QUOTE=Synelor;23468310]Without cell-shading.[/QUOTE] Alrighty. I just realized the black borders most likely isn't what cell-shading means. Not sure why I thought that... oh well, who cares. Think I'm going to build a bit. Make some docks, and an underwater base. Going to test out some streaming, so if anyone is insanely bored, come watch my silent, most likely choppy, stream: [url=http://www.livestream.com/maddolav?t=640928]Right here[/url] [editline]04:48PM[/editline] [QUOTE=lilcheeselad;23468400]I like without a bit better, but with cell shading looks kind cool aswell.

Anyone got any advice on hunting for iron ore? Been mining for ages and found no traces of it at all.

[QUOTE=mole3700;23468569]Anyone got any advice on hunting for iron ore? Been mining for ages and found no traces of it at all.[/QUOTE] Cheat. Oh fuck I adviced him to cheat and I'm the page king. Better contribute [IMG]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/6675430/add%C4%B1y.PNG[/IMG] I made a treasure room. It currently has 3 gold bars 1 iron bar and an obsidian block.
