"The color composition is beautiful, the red in the green hair and the lighter colors against darker colors, and it is overall just a pleasing skin." - Miku (Judge) | ||
"It's totally original, and the technique is almost flawless. The hue-shifting is beautiful, and the unique shading style really ties the whole skin together. I can't think of anything I don't like about the skin." - ElvenJedi (host & Judge) | ||
"It's colors are very vibrant, it really stands out. [...] The asymmetrical clothing is shaded beautifully, and the whole skin is so vibrant, regal,and elegant looking. Overall, this skin is executed very well." -ElvenJedi (host & judge) |

TERRIFIC TERRAIN We saw some lovely terrain submissions this week! After taking an extended break from terraforming, jetley created a 2k x 2k survival friendly Island map using WorldPainter. They not only published this map on PMC, but reddit as well and received over 5,000 upvotes! Jungle River Valley terrain crafted by Evmanz is a result of wanting to work on a project involving rivers. We think they've done an excellent job with winding the rivers and streams between mountain ridges and trees. DeltaResearch's snowy mountain range terrain is giving us all of the winter feels. Titled "Strata MK. II", it is said that the mountain range has been eroded away with centuries of snow and wind and its' supposed "terracing to be the claw marks of some ancient being. |
A CITY IN SECONDS Gheppio created this timelapse gif of his most recent project,The PillarHex District. This project uses his infamous self-replicating technology which we covered in great length in our interview with him last month. Though the city was created automatically, there were several steps carried through over the course of 7 days to create this colony. Every house and tower has stairs and furniture among other intricate details and elements. | ||
RENDER REQUESTS KudoDerg is accepting render requests until the 1st of December!

Thank you very much PMC for mentioning my latest project, now a finalist for the Unknown Civilization contest!
I'm planning a future integration with Infinity City (as also hinted in the project's description...)
I would like also to give an "empty" version of the world were people can automatically create their personal instance of the PillarHex District, an extra given together with the normal map, but I'll do this after the contest is concluded ;-)

I think terraforming and building are too inseparable to have as distinct options. Just like presentation is an important part of a chef's job, landscaping is an important part of a builder's job.

Command blocks...

its annoying cuz some work together /:
like building + terraforming

Building for me. I struggle so much to come up with new ideas when building my houses etc, then you look at some of these pieces of art posted and you just think like how and wow!
To those who create them master pieces..... Thumbs up.

I'd choose Redstone but if it was a new skill to learn, definitely terraforming.

Oh and this is implying that Commands fall under Redstone...

ugh i cant choose, already know a lot of redstone but then building too.
