AMAZING ART
Somehow we missed Creative_Kylee's artwork they posted last week, but it was too amazing to not feature it! The digital art drawing was meant to be a birthday present for RystaButAteASock. The picture includes 34 PMC Members. Do you spot yourself?!

We also came across another piece of their artwork the posted on a forum this week! It's a magical girl villain, and a submission in angelicteaaa's PMC Magical Girl and Boys Event!

BEAUTIFUL BAKE
canday celebrated their 800 subs by baking a cake! They state it took them four hours to make it. How delicious does it look?

They also recreated a slice of their cake, in pixel form for everyone to have and put on their profile (the closest way to virtually share a cake)! In their celebratory wall post, they also share some more art they created!

They're also hosting Wheel Skin Contest, which ends on July 27th. Be sure to check it out!

TECHNIQUE TIPS & TRICKS
Pixel perfector, Wildcard_Gamer is known for their great skins and awesome contests.

This week, he released a blog, which appears to be the first part in a series of Skin Technique Tips and Tricks!

In this blog, they start with the basics: Colors! They go over three simple ramps in a visual and explain Hue, Value, Saturation and RGB. Be sure to check it out, it has some really great information!

This week, we're featuring this mob skin made by dreamCritting! Can you identify what famous character this is? If you guessed My Little Pony (Rainbow Dash specifically) you are correct!! We love how adorable this hoglin replica is! dreamCritting managed to capture the cuteness of the character perfectly. Some would consider this cursed. We consider it charmed. We will patiently wait for the rest of the characters from the series.... ;)

NEW NETHER
In case you missed it, this week Minecraft released the Nether Update!! We wrote all about the new biomes, blocks, mobs, music and more! Head on over to this forum thread and read up on the latest and greatest and let us know what your favorite part of this update is!

Also, in celebration of the Nether update, we released the much requested website feature, DARK MODE!

The toggle is under your member account menu, very top right of the site. Try it now!

Some PMCer's celebrated the Nether by creating art of the new mobs! We love this Piglin drawing by Timothis_1213!

Upon further inspection, the relatively new member is working on a comic series called The Portal to the End! He just released page 23 of the comic. They also include some miscellaneous sketches and art pieces in the comic submission!

Speaking of new mobs, we also added the new Nether Mobs to PMCSkin3D! Woop! We're looking forward to seeing your creative skins using these new nether creatures!
