Ashen 1.13 is live!

With full support for the 1.21.9 Copper Age drop, and, more importantly, textures for everything that Ashen was missing, it's finally feature-complete! 🎉

Thank you! In addition to including them in Ashen, I am actually planning to put out a standalone resource pack with just the paintings when I update the main back for 1.21.9!

Thank you so much! They've been a lot of fun to make!

First time posting for #mcartday in a while; I can finally say I have all of the game's paintings done! Development is going to slow consideravly as I deal with a family crisis and my new professorship, but I'm still here!

That's just how I display sprites to avoid overscaling them and losing detail

Fairly simple #mcartday post this time around; three more paintings coming to Ashen in v1.12, releasing alongside Minecraft 1.21.6. As of right now, Ashen's only sixty-three textures (out of 3375!!!) away from complete!

And another #mcartday post, this one for Wayward. I'm continuing to (very slowly) plug away at this little side project, and today I bring you six very sweet item textures!

It's #mcartday, and I'm not actually going to miss this one!

A couple posts to share today; first, another painting coming with Ashen v1.12 -- this time, a study of Gustave Courbet's "The Rock of Hautepierre," c.1869 🖼️

I missed the most recent MCArtDay, but I've still been busy!

First up, I finally finished the Enderdragon for Ashen, which I'd planned to leave as the last mob I textured for that pack. Almost six years later, she'll be flying with Ashen v1.12! 🐉

If you add <-ai> to your search terms, Google's nonsense hallucinator doesn't show up, which has honestly been a godsend

Yeah, it feels very much within the realm of possibility, especially given the apparent focus on less mechanically significant content changes

I would kill for a cold biome ambience update 🥶 need me some more than just powder snow and passive mob variants

Thanks so much! 🥰

And another #mcartday post 😶‍🌫️; back to posting Ashen -- eight new paintings coming in v1.12! The top three are studies, the middle left is an original, and the four unused elemental paintings are references to a defunct franchise -- can you guess which one?

A *very* late-in-the-day #mcartday post! This time around, another peek at Wayward, which I'm hoping to reveal more of in the near future. For now, all the powders I've made, plus a sample of my approach to the GUI. More to come!

*Please* tell me the lupines have a chance of making it onto your InPrnt; I would kill to be able to hang that up, they're my absolute favorite flower and the way you've rendered them here is just *gorgeous*!

Thanks so much! 🥰

It's #mcartday! 🎨

Introducing Wayward! This pack, still in its infancy, will be my next major project after I finish Ashen.

I started work on Ashen in 2019, and my style has changed drastically since. Here's a side-by-side to compare!
