When looking at all the blocks in this texture pack it's not hard to find out that one of the basic themes of Eldpack are the low contrast and slightly washed out looking colors that look brighter but less saturated. The clay blocks in the vanilla texture pack have a low contrast look but with higher saturation. But I think that for Eldpack to fit with the vanilla texture pack they need to have the less saturated look of Eldpack on top of the low contrast look of the block in vanilla. Now the clay blocks we have now in the texture pack follow this theme well in my opinion. I think that the clay blocks shown in your picture are too saturated to fit the theme of Eldpack when taking the vanilla textures into account.
Yeah. I changed them mainly for my own use and just added them here in case anyone else wants them. I agree that colours too close to vanilla aren't really in line with the rest of Eld's colours, but I made the changes because I particularly wanted red clay that looks red. Maybe there's a way to accomplish that while also having it match Eld's style, but I'm no artist. I do like the clay colours in this pack, but I just wanted something a bit different.
Guys, if there's so many texture problems, everyone grab your Photoshop and take a shot at your own Eldpack textures! It's not like we don't want whatever you make or whatnot, as long as you can keep Eld's vibe, why not just keep them around as extras anyways? So try your luck at anything that isn't satisfactory on the continuation!
Good point. I've adjusted the hardened clay blocks in an effort to make them similar to the vanilla colours. Not very "Eldpack-style" I suppose, but I liked the vanilla colours. In case anyone else wants them, here they are.
First of all, thanks to everyone for continuing Eldpack (my favourite texture pack), you're all doing a great job! I was wondering if you could tweak the hardened clay colours a bit though. I just think they're slightly too pastel; my "red" barn looks pink.
