.....GS v14 Sunflower CTM!

A real pain to do!

By the nature of it's design it's difficult to get a lot of variation in the flower head, due to the back being an exact flipped mirror of the front. The centre circle and the petal color are the only things that can be randomised about the head. I could do the back too, but at this late stage it's not worth the time and effort.

The bottom and top sections of the stem along with the leaves have also received a good bit of random ctm magic...just enough to stop those unsatisfactory infinite ranks of the same shapes. I heartily agree with those who have said you can never have enough random ctm. However, this is tempered by the fact you can never have enough time either.

Must press on...

Those are terrifying, like a crowd of short people dressed up as lions, all just staring at me...

Haha! ...and now the sun has gone down, they turn to the viewer in search of sustenance for the dark night to come. :/

There is something kinda 'triffid-like' about sunflowers! Would have been even creepier if Mojang had made them slowly turn towards the player.

I bet you'll have fun with your sunflowers, if you haven't already. I'm not sure I dare come and see, especially if you think mine look terrifying!

Mine probably won't even be plants. They'll probably be some sort of metal thing. Maybe wind turbines, or solar panels, or maybe i'll make them some sort of fungi.

They most definitely have lots of scope for imagination.

.....GS v14 Syringa CTM!

Every leaf individually painted...seriously, OCD!

Yeah, it's a vanilla bug. Just place down a block if TNT, and you'll see the reversed "N" on two sides.

Haha! TNT's a good way of illustrating the 'flip' glitch!

Happy Turkey Day!!

Been trying to either come up with inspiration to build or see if I can convert Mythos to the new format and continue working on it.

Love the new stuff I see here though. Is what made me at least start playing again

Now if I could only find a friendly active server with actual people onnit to play on....

Faust!! How you doin' mate.

Good to see you're still alive and kickin'. Glad you like the new stuff I'm slowly plowing through. When folk see the quantity of ctm I've been working on for the next update they might understand that I've not really been going that slow after all.

Well I hope you do get Mythos up and running again, but there's an awful lot to do if you haven't been following things. MCPatcher CTM is the joy and bane of my life at the mo'. At the rate I'm going, I dare say you'll be up and running before me.

Sorry I can't help you with the task of server hunting though, I'm strictly a one man one world Robinson Crusoe kind of player...multiplayer is just plain scary.

All the best for Mythos, mate and if you do get back into it, I shall be over to check things out like a flash.

heres a pic of a focus attached http://i.imgur.com/AjKVvbL.png

im currently working on textures and models for a mod idea that might become an actual mod

nice to see that the pack is changing and getting better and better, you're doing a great job glimmar!

Thanks guys for the nice comments and encouraging words.

Here's another plant with quite a bit of random ctm work on it. Spent an age making random one-block paeonia plants, only to discover they don't seem to be in Minecraft anymore...only double plant paeonias...frustrating! So spent another age doing those, which needed doing anyway, and dropped the single plant paeonias in the ctm folder too just in case Mojang decide to put it back in again.

So here are the screenshots:

beautiful! I dont know what you do for a living, but if its not graphic art related, you are in the wrong field! You are so talented! I cant wait until your finished!!!

Comments like that make it worth the effort! Thank you.

It's in the traditional fine art field by the way...my occupation I mean...both history and practice. Digital art doesn't come naturally, but I'm learning...slowly!
