The witch is a plague doctor. Bird mask, duster jacket, all that. I wasn't able to use the nose unfortunately, because the model didn't suit the beak at all. Not to mention the fact that it sort of randomly drifts around off the witch's face ingame... the witch animation is really weird.
I dismembered and messed up regular villagers, and converted them to the zombie model... that's about it. It was harder than it sounds.
I got about half of the ender dragon done as well, that should be done tomorrow. I could definitely use ideas for the spider, iron golem, and wither.

Stil amazing
The creation of the Wither involves placing three wither-skeleton skulls on top of soul sand (which, in your pack, is various organs), so, why not make the wither look like a bunch of random guts shoved inside of a cage made of bones? Well, the model might not support it, for one...
I did a gif of me creating an enchanted book for Drifting Breeze:
Individual textures:
Normal book, enchanted book (meant to be tied shut with grass)

I might just stuff my soul sand texture inside the wither skeleton texture and add a few extra details so i can be done with it and get this release out by halloween.
By the way, try toning down the green straps a bit, they overpower the book.

The pack that I made this for (Drifting Breeze) is a continuation of my entry to the dead DB32 challenge, so almost all of my textures have to fit to that palette. All I can really do is make the green darker.
Is this better?

Looks exactly the same to my eyes.
Maybe get rid of one the straps and add a little buckle or something holding the strap together?

Oh, they look the same because of how dropbox works. I deleted the old one and called the new one the same thing, so the url of the image stayed the same. Check the gif for old colouring
As for the belt, I'll try that. I made two because I can't decide on which buckle is better. At this point, I'm leaning towards keeping it as the grass.
Wow, buckles are hard at 16x on an angle following a strick palette
13th your mobbin us with those mobs! They are sooooooooo damn good.
Now ideas for spiders... oooh hot air balloon sentry bots?
Dragonoid, I prefer the first one. Appears cleaner than the dual pin concept.
Minecraftian Gamer - I'd suggest to have variation in the size of the birch patches. Or maybe try for a Paper Birch appearance, no one's tried to pull off one of those
I worked a long time on the villager's face last night and ended up with this. My intention with the villagers is of course to be mostly-faithful, but to push the villagers to looking a little less human and dim-witted.
When i finished i felt pretty happy with the results, but i worked on it to the point were i probably lost my objectivity. And the first couple comments were negative.
So i thought i'd ask a wider range of artists for feedback.

I LOVE your stained glass, Sy. Well I pretty much love your everything except the grass is too light for me. But then again, I'm a pretty dark person.
And yeah, thanks for the compliment. I guess it's the practice. I finally have something I can call a workflow. Well it's mostly some weird artistic mojo consisting of frantic scribbling, a lot of swearing and cussing, using all Photoshop filters at once and pressing ctrl-z every other second, sometimes listening to weird loud music and talking to rats (they usually just stare at me as I was some total nutjob which I probably am), but at least I figured out what brushes I'm using and no longer spend two hours every day trying to remember what I used on the last one.
And I guess my artistic muscles are warming up slowly, I did the the plank texture from scratch (like in, a blank document with a single colour background) in less than two hours I think.
So I guess I'm on the right way there.
Thanks Shadow, great to hear how you feel you are progressing and improving and it really shows!
There's not enough scrollwork in minecraft these days. Good to see someone adding some
Ha yeah! but when I make them more transparent it will be really sutble but still a hint of it, want different patterns/frames on each colour but its taking AGES. I may start some re colours if i get bored!
So what creative craziness do you have planned for your glass!? Gonna be broken/smashed and detailed i would imagine
IMPORTANT MESSAGE!
Hey, I've found this website that distributes texture pack without permission, and with ads!
Could the TAU do something about it? http://www.resource-packs.org
*checks to see if my pack is there*
Nothing that could be done by the TAU as a whole, but developers of the packs could request their packs to be removed.
The site appears to be run by Ravand...

Yep, my packs not on there so I can't do anything through that. IF people don't get an answer from them I can look into having the IP remove it completely for copyright infringement, they have adfocused everything! Cheeky barstewards.
I believe Monsterfish knows the Ravand lot quite well maybe he can have a word and let them do the decent thing before any action is taken.

It doesn't appear that the links on the site go directly to the download, they just link to the pack's forum topic. The only one that are linked to directly (that I found) is Conquest, which is hosted on Ravand.org anyway. So, what they're doing isn't illegal, I don't think, but it's still kind of a **** move.

My only worry about that is, if they are defensive about it, some of the packs don't have a license, and for those packs in particular they are technically allowed, as unethical as it is.
What bugs me is that it looks to be run by Ravand. He used to be a forum-goer. I don't know if he still is, but now did he just decide to put up his own site and release dozens of packs from the forum he used to be a part of, without mentioning the creator of the packs at all? He posts the original author's download links buried quite a ways down, but then has his own giant green download link far more prominent than the author's and right near the top, and uses adfoc.us for it, which nets him more money for the work he did none of than adf.ly would.

Just discussing this with G on Skype, this is just a little scam to get Adfocus revenue by linking to resource packs threads with a paid URL link, they are hosting no downloads.
Pretty pathetic using peoples threads/work as content on a website just to gain revenue. Could at least ask permission. I also believe (will check this out) that authors of work would be entitled to a cut of the earnings lol
