OFFICIAL EVENTS AND CONTESTS |
Are you enjoying the new Nether?! We certainly are!! We're teaming up with Buildcon to bring you this months Build contest.... NETHER! First place prize receives a secret HAND MADE object from Cyprezz PLUS $50 in steam credit. I'm sworn to secrecy, so I can't reveal what the object is, but I can tell you it's pretty awesome. Visit the official Nether Build Contest page for all of the details! Deadline: July 22 | |
Did we mention we are excited about the new Nether? Looks like the community is, too! This month's skin contest theme was chosen from the community votes in this poll, and the theme is Nether Nightmares! You must use only the Nether mobs in this contest and they must be made of everything that makes you shudder inside. Deadline: July 27 |

βOTHER HIGHLIGHTS |
RAD RENDERS In a series of wall posts this week NaldoSahagin showed us their latest BlockBench work! He states that "One of my most proudest blockbench creations yet, a anglerfish!". They also made some really fun renders of their Larry the Robot Skin, which you can see below. The robot seems very playful and has so much character!! We're looking forward to seeing more of your work! |
Michiru posted this gorgeous render of their skin, Searching for Meaning, I keep running. The skin is of Michiru Kagemori from the anime BNA, this time using the colors of the ending song which Michiru really loved, stating that "it's melancholic and beautiful at the same time." They also really liked the blue-pinkish palette and we can see why. This is an experimental light source skin and we think it came out awesome! | |
RAVE REVIEW Check it out! ChronoFury reviewed the best and most popular Hoglin Skins from PMC in a YouTube Video! Trigonia starts the video off by seeing the Hoglin skins for the first time; so you get a true and real reaction from him as he reviews the skins! The review is very entertaining. Did you know there are only 60 Hoglin Mob Skins on PMC?! There's a shrek hoglin skin, a fire sheep hoglin skin, and hoglin skins so cursed you might just cringe. Go on, check them out! Let us know which one is your favorite! | |
TRENDING ON REDDIT Last week, we featured Timothis_1213's comic blog, The Portal to the End. This week they created a comic of An enderman who made some new friends on his trip to the Nether decides to introduce them to his leader. They're less than thrilled. Timothis also published this on reddit, where it received a lot of praise and good feedback! The reddit thread currently has just about 25,000 upvotes!! We also recently discovered their "Bored Drawings" section on their profile. It consists of Minecraft doodles ranging from sketches of Ender Dragon moods to Alex drawings. We encourage you to check them out, as they're all very good! |
AMAZING ARCHITECTURE This beautiful build by RevenJoakimMc is just one of over 50 in their portfolio! This build is a Minecraft replica of Equinor (formerly known as Statoil), an oil company found in Norway. It is one of the leading petroleum producing companies in the world and therefor they needed an office to suit them. You can see just how detailed and close to the the real life counterpart is in the images below. Be sure to check out the rest of their work for more architectural amazingness! |
