So good things for the next update !
I love the new design of the planks and the cobblestone.
The new mobs are cool too.

Thanks, glad you like the new stuff!

I'll post pics of the other new planks soon with pics of the spider which I'm currently texturing!

Any suggestions for what to change on this new title?

I'm not overly sure about the bgcolor. It's quite nice as it is, I personally would like some "grit/dirt/rough" in there though.

Yea, I know what you mean!

I tried making it gold like the text in my sig but that's not really working either. I'll definitely try out that dirty rough sorta idea you've given me though, will probably add some much needed details.

I'd like to se the "pixel" part centered, looks good otherwise. Loving the updates you are doing, so nice!

I had it centred originally but it just looked weird. The background on the main menu helps blend in the fact that it's off to the side though, just because there's so much going on. Glad you're liking the updates though!

Thanks!

It looks like a really nice texture pack.
It doesn't drift too far away from Default, which I like, but it has it's own, very nice and original style.

Yea, although unintentional, the colour scheme is surprisingly similar to default, with a few exceptions of course. Glad you like the pack though!

Also everyone, thanks for repping up the OP, I'm only 2 rep off 100 rep for this pack!

Quote from ArKoS

+1 for you
Good job for this pack.

Hehe, thanks!

Here are some pics of the spiders!



And planks! (spruce is still gonna get a few tweaks - not entirely happy with it yet...)

Awesome texture pack! It's only 16x but it's got a lot of cool detail and is something I can really see myself using, I will use this!

Thanks, glad you like it!

Ok, made a new redstone lamp because I remember people not really liking that compared to my other textures as it lacked depth.

Here is the new one:



Also started to make/redo the gui. I had some parts from my old pack but I've started replacing them with new ones. This is the new experience bar, health and food bar. The block selector thing down the bottom is the next thing to change!

Quote from Wayuki

Coming along well, Sheepie! Your monsters are turning out very cool. I'm looking forward to everything being done.

Thanks Wayuki, hopefully it won't take that long. It will though. I know it...

Texture packs always have something that needs doing...

Quote from Muscar

ooh, love the new planks and gui, can't wait! :3

Just wondering how you go about choosing colors, do you use photoshop and/or anything else?

I use photoshop for drawing with my tablet, paint.net for everything pixel art.

I also don't have any technique for picking colours, just trial and error to find something that goes well with my other textures, then use hue shifting to get the highlights and shadows. I also use colours I've already used in my pack before but that's just a consistency thing.

I have been convinced to write a tutorial in the near future and I will provide a link here for all those who would be interested. Hopefully that will help give insight on my particular techniques and such!

Man you texture pack is getting even more amazing,i gonna start use it more than all texture packs that i already used , this is the best 16 pixels texture pack

Even if you just make a varient of the grass and post the 16x16 tile and I can add it to the terrain.png for myself.
Would like to see an updated version of 'dat grass.

Nah, I think I'm going to actually add it to the pack myself. I was thinking about it this morning and I decided my other grass is just ugly without CTM (and even with it in many ways).

So yea, I'm gonna try and make a newer version of it as soon as I finish the item selector thing for the gui!
