Different art paths: Minecraft


 

There isn't a set path for art. There are many different versions of each art category and many more versions of those categories, it all depends on the artist and what they see. There is a lot of gaming artists, those who create things in the games or create interpretations of those games.
For example, Minecraft, this is a sandbox game which thousands of people play all over the world, you can create art in the game or art of the game. Art in the game is called 'Pixel art' because the game is made up of cubes, it is almost like a pixel on a screen. These are some examples of my favorite pixel art works. (Images are from google)

From small creations:


 To larger and more complicated:










Even to 3-D:



These are works of art called 'Fan art' viewers of streamers or normal players create art work of events that occurred in game:

These are fan arts of the map 'Mianite' in which , Captainsparklez, Omgitsfirefoxx, SynHD and iijeriichoii play in with other people. They stream everyday and play on this world which has a story line in which they are part of and as they go along, they uncover new things. The viewers create art work like this for them.







 This kind of work got me inspired to draw digitally rather than on paper, even though I preferred working with pencil to paper as it felt that I had to be more precise with my work. Most digital art goes into detail with shading and shape of the people but having something simple and cartoony can still have a great affect on people as it can give a more humorous side to the art or the event being captured.



Sometimes people also create animations of Minecraft. For example, if something funny happens in an episode or stream, some people create short animations of that event for others to watch and laugh at. I do not own these videos, I just enjoy watching it as it is brilliantly made and very funny hence why I am sharing it here.
