Yeah, its called Minecraft. I suggest you check it out, its quite fun.

Anyway, yeah. I've been making textures, but, as they say, “an artist is their own worst critic”. So, i'm posting them here. I've posted them in the MC official topic, but that topic more about the game, so i don't get a lot of feedback there.

First, the lowly stone. It was the basis for most of my textures. It okay, for a stone i guess. I only spend like 10 minutes in it.


So this is my favorite texture so far. Its supposed to be diamond ore. I like the geometric-y style i did with it. I didn't add translucency because A) I think the texture is too cartoony for that stuff, and B) Zaneki just schooled me at explaining it, so i probably wouldn't implement it well. NEXT!


This is my next texture, and also happens to be the first real high-res image i have ever created. I think i did quite good for a first try. I like the way it looks sort of unrefined. Also, its supposed to be an emerald. I think I didn't learn about hue-shifting before this one, so it may look a bit flat for a solid object.


Moving on, this is lapis lazuli. I tried to give it that rough feel unrefined lapis has, but i think all i succeeded in doing is making it look like a shiny rock. Oh well, I'll probably redo it sooner or later.


So this is a thing only us Minecrafters are gonna get, but this is redstone. Redstone is something in the game that allows you to make basic circuitry, with OR, AND, NOT, XOR, and a bunch of other gates able to be built. It supposed to be glowy, but i think i hue shifted too much and now it doesn't look red enough. Gonna change.


My wood texture. Turns out it looks horrible ingame, so i'll redo it. Nothing much to say, except maybe that i was impressed with myself for about 10 seconds and then was disgusted.


Okay, so this is my texture for an underworld type thing. I think i succeeded in making it look quite sooty and rough. Also i used dodge-burn for this one. It was when i was still a newbie at stuff like this. I'm gonna refine and try and get rid of the grid.


Building of that texture up there, is a quartz texture, which i quite like, but am probably gonna have to redo because I'm gonna redo the texture it is on top of. Also I might put translucency in it, assuming i can get it right.


So these two textures a marble-y things that I'm gonna redo. I think they look kinda ugly.



Also, just as is reached the end, i realized that tinypic has a multiple image uploader. -_-

I made all the images with a mouse, so hopefully my quality will shoot up when I get my Wacom tablet.

Check out my deviantart, where i'll be uploading paintings and all of these textures. YAAY FREE ADVERTS!!!

I'll post my textures on here as i get more done as well.

Looks great! Make it a texturepack!

I am. I'll probably add sounds and connected textures, too.

Berberber,

as a dear and ultimate number 1 fan of Lapis, I need to tell you…

That.
Lapis.
Looks.
Fine.
And.
Don't.
Change.
It.

EVER.

Just because of a lil' hue-jump at the edges, it just makes it look more rough and it gives off a Lazuli-like feeling.

Looks good

I defiantly +1 this

EDIT: i spend too much time in the suggestions forum…

Okay then!

I'm pretty sure everyone knows what Minecraft is now

I really like the emerald texture!

Wow! It looks great!

What is the resolution?

Its 128x, but once i get 80% done I'll start working on a 64x version.

Also, i'm releasing it soon, once i finish the ores and dirt and trees.

I'd love to install it but first I'll need to delete all my previous textures XD I need to remind myself to refresh my Texturepacks x'3

Hey berberber how did you make the textures? :O

Um… so lets see… what do you mean? Like a specific texture, what i use (a mouse), how my workflow is, or what program?

Well, these aren't pixel art, I use paintbrush for them.

I got inspiration for it from Chroma Hills and Dragon Dance. I regularly post my textures on the Texture Artists Union for feedback. They're great people.

So I've been using a wireless mouse (wired kinda restricts my movement) but I just ordered a Wacom Bamboo Create. Hopefully it'll work better.

As for how i work, I usually put on music from this playlist. It's electronic music, so probably not many of you guys are gonna like it. Anyway, after putting on music, I just select a random texture i'd like to do. (I know, i'm very professional.) After that, I look up some references, but don't try to emulate them too closely because I want to keep a cartoon feel. Each texture usually takes about 2-3 hours, more if I can't get it right. (Lapis, i'm looking at you.)

I've been using GIMP 2.6 for it, but I might switch to something else one day. I dunno, GIMP fits all my needs.

As for specific textures, what do you want to know?

DUDE, I luv your music taste! ^^ I ABSOLUTELY love dubstep! XD

Its not dubstep, its electro. Dubstep has a lot more wubs. These have a drop without much wubbing. They just drop it and then maybe manipulate the base a little.

(I'm sorry, its just something that bothers me. )

Lol but I like electro too :3

NO, wait, lemme correct myself…

I love everything associated with Techno, Electro and Dubstep. Dubstep is a music genre that came to exist through a collab with noise and techno/electro I think

I made a minor change to redstone, it is now redder.

Also, I'm getting my tablet on the 14th. Yaay!

That is redstone or iron?

You need to completely re-texture it into red if it's redstone

Dang, if you can't tell if it's redstone or iron, i better change a lot. I like that crystal shape, but the colors aren't right.
