 |  Don't be afraid to let them show by kichanti | ⭐OTHER HIGHLIGHTS TRANSPARENT TRICKS This week, we saw several submissions that used transparency to create some pretty awesome and unique skins! anonpmc2713049 created mini vault boy (any Fallout Fans here?!) for their 250 subscriber milestone. kichanti created an inspirational skin called "don't be afraid to let them show" . |
 Galactic Artist by PickleCat |  little ghost by Aspirin60 | This skin is of a girl with a prosthetic leg. The message is clear: don't be ashamed or embarrassed about who you are. Next up, we have two ghost-like skins. PickleCat created Galactic Artist for a Skindex Pallet contest. Aspirin60 created a goblin-ish ghost skin using transparency. We think it's cute with the perfect amount of creepy 🙂. |

| FIRST FORTRESS The Nether Update inspired kimandjax to create a Piglin Fortress in the 1.16 Nether Update Snapshot using the new blocks! She was, in fact, so inspired that she built this on her birthday! We can see so much detail including the use of the new fire variant Soul fire as well as basalt and netherite. We can even spot a hoglin! Head on over and wish her a happy belated cakeday (it was yesterday!) and give her a diamond as a gift! It's still the only 1.16 Nether Map on the site! |  | |

Yes! I tried the new Snapshot and it was really good! I liked Crimson Forest and Warped Forest a lot more. So too is Netherite, which has taken its throne from Diamond. Poor Diamond.
I think this photo will explain you better:
