minecraft stuff
I want to post a bunch of builds here when I make something presentable but until then, I will just post miscellany as they are created.
minecraft character skins
Making skins is a lot of fun but I only have three to show off. I have made a couple others but these are the three I am most proud of. Perhaps I shall make more and put them here.
Alexander the Great.
There's actually nothing in the primary sources that we have that explicitly mentions he had heterochromia (eyes of different colors); however, there was a novel written in the third or fourth century called the Alexander Romance that depicts him that way; it is almost certainly a fictional embellishment but I thought it would make the skin more interesting.
here is a link where you can download the skin.
Vercingetorix.
This is the ancient Gallic/Celtic king Vercingetorix, who united Gaul against Julius Caesar and very nearly bested Caesar. Caesar did indeed win in the end and conquered Gaul for the Roman Empire. We don't know exactly what Vercingetorix looked like, but Gallic people and the Celts are often depicted with red hair (and Vercingetorix is in renaissance paintings), and in Gallic society the men usually had giant moustaches.

A Dryad.
This is supposed to be a dryad or nature spirit. It's a heavily altered variant of a skin I used for years that I could not find the download link to, so it's not completely original and I want to assert that it's not, but it is very different from the original.
