Minecraft: Creative Mode

What is it?

Minecraft is a game that was created by a Swedish programer named Markus Notch, later made popular by a swedish company known as Mojong and currently owned by Microsoft. The object of the game is that you are a blocky character that roams in a blocky universe, and you need to survive here by collecting items for building materials and kill creatures/animals around you in order to survive. It is also a place were aside from building with blocks to create your own imaginary world, a place to hide from creatures of the night that lurk in the shadows such as witches, zombies, spiders and much more. 

Live Versions of the Game

There are live versions with in the game, where when connected to the internet, one can join a group of people and play games such as mega walls. A really fun game where you join a team in a color group of ether red, blue, green or yellow and compete against one another to destroy what is called a team's Wither. (That's the best way I can explain this). 

Creative Mode & Survival Mode

A lot of people do not know what to think of this game, and often question its blocky appearance and its sometimes faded coloring. But I can honestly say myself, that it is a creative game that challenges the mind to create things out of blocks. Basically a virtual version of the popular Legos. 

In this part, I just wanted to mention the Creative VS the Survival modes. 

In the game, a player is able to choose whether he/she wants to play in Survival Mode or Creative Mode. Survival mode, allows the player to mine resources or chop down resources in order to build shelter and then hunt random animals for food and more resources such as leather and wool to craft certain things like a bed or armor. Creative mode allows the player to be able to have unlimited resources and basically be creative in building whatever he/she wants to. (You also have the ability to "fly" around basically, by pressing the space bar twice) 

The images shown below are examples of a place that I myself have built in Minecraft. Basically a decent sized castle place with a large skull floating above. 

Minecraft is available for both PC and Mac, and you can download it from their website by clicking this link here. It costs about $20.00 to download (purchase). 

Fan Art & Purple Haired Lady

Just got a new thing of marker paper, which I decided to add in here the latest two pieces. The first one is a fan art of the Undercity. Which is a place ruled by the Undead in the game World of Warcraft. Obviously, this looks like more of a child's version of the area, but it does have a unique charm to it that I felt like showing.

The next piece that I am showing is a bit more interesting, and was a Mary Doodles inspired piece. It's called the Purple Haired Lady.  This went along with Green Haired Lady, and was a random test as well for my new Prisma colored marker, Violet.

Sketchbook 2015 Part 2

These are my latest sketches in my Decomposition notebook or Composition notebook, and the reason I am using this, is because it has nice thick pages, and I can also use it as a diary at the same time for events and planning. Below each image is a description about the image above it and what has been done to each part of that image. 

Front Cover of the Decomposition Book 

Few modifications done to the front. 

First Flap inside of the decomposition notebook. Practically changed the whole thing by taking a nice sheet of marker paper and pasted in using Elmer's Glue. Created a series of sketches of the Undercity from World of Warcraft. Scourge symbol, also from World of Warcraft is drawn on the bottom left hand side. Would have drawn a map of Icecrown Citadel if I could find it. Probably will on the final flap. 

NOTE: I was going to put in another sketch but for some reason it wouldn't show so I will have to try again later -_- wonderful...

The Scribble Challenge & Stardoll

The Scribble Challenge
I may have mentioned this before, but in case you haven't seen it, it's really known as more of a 'What will I draw' type of challenge. Basically what you do is, you close your eyes, or blindfold your eyes while drawing a scribble on a piece of paper. Then you make something out of the scribble that you have created. It is a bit of a challenge, but is interesting when you finish.

This is another that I have created. I'm still not quite sure what I just drew, but it basically has an inspiration from Alice in Wonderland, because of the cat. Anyway, the first photo is before and the next is after.

Stardoll

I've had a stardoll account for a while, but hardly play it as much as I used to. When I go on now, I just enjoy decorating my suite and adding things that I have collected from a while back. Anyway, I decided this time, to make an Alice in Wonderland: Madness Returns look to it. First room is inspired by the first scene that you see in the game, which is a kind of forest type look. The next room, is inspired by the shipwreck scene in the ocean, the fourth scene is inspired by the castle train that you see with glowing red windows. Which I wasn't able to do, so I just put in the french windows. The final room was inspired by the frozen ship in a bottle with a toy looking moon above. You can see this suite by clicking here.
