[glowstone23b]

I have brainrot about piglins, but it’s mostly one in specific. This is him— Flintbairn of Bastion Glowstone 23b… my homeboy, my sweet cheese, my good time boy. You know. Anyways, he started as an NPC for an in-game scavenger hunt I made with a bunch of redstone on a server a while back, and he evolved from there.

Flint got trapped in the overworld one day when his portal exploded behind him, leaving him with a heck of a scar and a pretty nasty case of advanced zombification. Luckily, he’s been able to stave it off for the most part with his knowledge of potions, but his supplies can only last so long. He’s hoping to find either a solid cure or to find a way back home before he completely loses himself— only a matter of time.

He’s kind of in a liminal space for me, always in the overworld and not quite zombified because I never got to finish his questline before the server shut down, alas. He’s pretty sweet and is a caretaker for the young piglets back home, but he helps around where needed.

Anyways. This guy I rotate in my head all the time. Constantly. Look at him. Ask me about him, but be warned, I will not shut up about him

This used to be an ask blog, but now its used for just doodling my ocs :0) here are my two main ones!!

On the left is Ace, (40yrs, she/her, villager) a weapon smith from a Savanna village! After her mother disappeared when she was younger, she was raised by the whole village and taught to take up her mother's old job. She's dreamed of running off from the village. She's loud, happy, spontaneous and imaginative as she is stupid. Her story revolves around traveling with an enderman named Delta (she/they), searching for her mother as Delta has expressed her knowledge of her. She cannot communicate directly with Delta, as Delta is mute. Delta can understand Ace though, and helps her on her journey. They are stoic, cold, and incredibly intelligent.

(TH links they are currently under construction, but will be finished soon. Ace's page/Delta's page)

On the right is Briar, (38yrs, he/him, piglin) a small scientist hailing from the Nether. Obsessed with potions and zombification after an incident involving the loss of his arm when he was younger, he in incredibly intelligent, deadpan, quiet, antisocial, and curious. A war had begun in the Nether, a wither skeleton by the name of Rose (she/him) had torn through countless bastions with the goal to kill and enslave all the piglins she could before he had head to the Overworld. This was easy, as Briar had managed to fix a Nether Portal to collect and test zombification and potion brewing. After surviving Rose's assault, he regrouped and left for the Overworld, determined to put a stop to her destroying another dimension. Traveling in the Overworld he had met another piglin named Dagger (he/him) and his daughter Malo, (she/they). Who now help him with his goal of saving the Overworld.

That's all for now!!!

This is your sign to personalize your piglin ocs, this is your sign to take inspiration from different kinds of pigs when you draw piglins, and by god this is your sign to draw PIGlins with FAT AND MUSCLE. You hear me? FAT. MUSCLE. FAT. OKAY? Give that piglin a double chin at least rn or so help me

Souls in the Sand: Concept Art

As I’ve mentioned here and there, I’ve spent the last two years developing an original story inspired by a small Origins+Empires server a few friends and I started planning. The more I developed plans for my empire to be a sprawling overgrown cityscape of ruins and stone framework inspired by the nether, the more I built up this backstory for the character I wanted to play, a small deerfolk boy named Esra. From there, and over months of working and reworking the story and its characters, I’m proud to say I’m coming up on a 100 piece gallery for my Masters Exhibition to display this story in the form of a song-inspired comic, titled: Souls in the Sand.

Over the next month and beyond the date of my exhibition in April, I wanted to start sharing my work here! I thought it would be fitting to first share all of the concept work I did for the characters last semester as I took each character from their old lineup and reworked them from scratch to see if there were any designs I could make more unique or appropriate for the story. This process consisted of four stages: silhouettes, full-body mock-ups, face and head shapes/designs, and experimenting with the final characters’ designs with a set of unique expressions that best fit their personalities and narrative role.

Since each character was reworked separately, the “new” concept lineup is a little disjointed (and some of the characters’ faces actually ended up different from their full-body designs), but I thought it would be fun to line them up to compare the overall cast to their old designs. With each character(s) I post the concept process for, I may share little bits of the work I’m doing or talk a little about their narrative roles as I go, but for now, have Esra!

I know I don’t post original work here often, but I wanted to share parts of this journey with you guys because it’s been very meaningful to me! And I hope all of the work I’ve been doing may at the very least serve as a bit of inspiration or encouragement for us to keep making silly minecraft stories, to keep drawing the characters we love, and to keep being creative in whatever way is meaningful! <3

Minecraft is a sandbox game, so many interpretations are valid, but... I find myself heavily disliking piglins as antagonists, in the movie and in the spin-offs.

It feels wrong. They do not seem like conquering barbarians to me in the game.

You find them in the Nether, the underworld they can't escape from. They're scared of zombiefication. Their fortresses are falling apart, they no longer have enough netherite around. They're not immune to lava. They dance after a successful hunt. They protect their territories, but can you blame them? Even if you're not wearing any gold, they will still barter for it fair and square.

I'm not saying it's... bad to depict them as villains. You need a bunch of enemy armies in minecraft to fight, you either got piglins or pillagers. And it feels weird to kill the latter since they're human-like, so you got piglins left, why not.

I'm just... personally uncomfortable with this. It doesn't read Minecraft (or at least, what it is for me). Coupled with other movie's issues, I don't think I'll be seeing it. I don't even want to pirate it...

i finally have a solid script for my piglin conlang! i still need to work on the lexicon, but at the very least i have a form of writing :)

as a bonus, both xotha and narcissus, with their names written in piglin

narcissus gets both a transliteration and a specific name in piglin, dzivetlet translates to "little leader" and there are story reasons for that name and the consequences, but i won't delve too far into it now
