"arkv" is short for Arkive, part of a small worldbuilding project I'm working on with a couple friends. The name dates back to a MC SMP I was on back in 2021. Since then I've played around with what Arkive actually is. I think I'm getting closer to the answer, maybe one day I'll share it here!

Wanted something a little more personal, so my handle is now @njgdaedalus.arkv.me

I may or may not do anything with this domain in the future, and a few other users might pop up with it here and there!

I'm glad I figured this out, I think it's really cool :D

Made some gotg vol 3 groot inspired wings, and then spent several HOURS trying to reverse engineer Elytras+ to get them to FLAP!

Succeeded though, so that's pretty awesome I think 😎

Here's a link to Elytras+! They've got a whole hoard of elytra designs and I couldn't have got my own working without looking at how this pack is formatted!

gamers I cannot be stopped

I have successfully reverse engineered the Elytras+ resource pack to add in my very own elytra design that I made MONTHS ago!

I cannot lie I am having SO MUCH FUN making these. They might not be perfect but I'm so proud of how they're turning out.

This is Grovebinder, for my partner @fawnsinforests.art :D
A Minecraft screenshot, showing an enchanted sickle covered in vines in an item frame, with a sickle in each player hand too. The sickle is called "grovebinder" A Minecraft screenshot in third-person, showing Daedalus holding both an enchanted and unenchanted sickle.

This is the most eloquently put crash-out about AI that literally sums up everything that I (and I expect a whole lot of other people) have been feeling about it. Thank you @hankgreen.bsky.social

Here's a better view of the GUI texture, and the a first person look too!

The newfound power to make weapons for my friends...

This is Radiance, a sword for @pyrolyse.arkv.me :D

I hope they get to palindromic 1.21.21

I think I'm understanding less and less why they didn't just make a push towards 1.25 being the main update number and then switching to the second number being the year of release with the drops, but I suppose there are still major update plans in the works!

This here is the sketch I did for the sword several months ago and didn't get any further with 😭

It's largely inspired by one of the swords on Hero Forge, which has been how I've pictured Daed's sword for several YEARS

Don't think I can stressed how GASSED I am about this! I made textures for the canon Daed Blade (name pending) and (with a lot of help and inspiration from @8onfire.com, @hellay.bsky.social and @snuckyy.bsky.social) got it to work with some name-changing trickery too!

Did you know the Hoe in #Minecraft has the highest Attack Speed out of any tool in the game? You can attack 4 times per second with it! Unfortunately, it only does 1 damage per hit so it's not too great of a weapon.

Guess I'm actually building a base again huh
A Minecraft island with 2 structures on it. One structure is a glass disc, with a hollow cylindrical room underneath it. On top of it sits a nether portal that is yet to be moved. The other structure is a white building with grey corners, pipes running along the side, and a bulbous glass room on top A screenshot of the same two structures, this time taken at sunset, and with some minor, hard-to-spot texturing on the building in the distance
