    I think the “overgrown, mossy” skull is actually creepier than just the darker one. The idea of such a big feature or memorial, presumably man made, being forgotten so long it’s reclaimed by the earth again feels darker and more poetic to me.

      Oftentimes, unnatural structures blending in as if natural, to the point of making you question if perhaps it WAS natural, can not only look cool but also add an air of mystery. Making it blend heavily into the terrain as if it were always part of the mountain bring in questions of its age and origin. And often, large structures draw the eye just by their size, so making them stand out further can ruin it. If something this large gets missed for a few moments before being noticed, then becomes hard to miss after knowing it's there, it has a particularly strong "WOW" effect.

    Here’s an idea! Wouldn’t it make more sense to have the water stream on the skull to have the darker blocks like it’s actually wet? Just switch the mossy cobblestone texture with darker blocks that would make it look like a waterfall and the surrounding stone is wet. The skull looks great and I can’t wait to see the finished result!

  • @doritohair0759
    @doritohair0759 Місяць тому +127

    I think making the skull blend in will add to the overall subtle creepiness to your base. Making it darker and stand out too much may force it in your face, and rn I like the fact that everything in your base is just subtly creepy, keeping you on your toes as you walk by. Having this big pretty mountainous terrain also be in the shape of a skull would add to that effect.
    Edit: adding glow licen to the inside of the skull eyes I think would add just enough light to make it pop, without making it feel out of place. If not maybe some frog lights.

    At the end of the video, Gem mentioned putting a light within the Skull and I think it should be something with the blue lanterns if possible.
    If Gem plans on keeping the Enchanting table somewhere within the Skull, the blue lighting could imply that the magic of the table is "leaking" through, calling all adventurers to visit the mysterious cavern.

    For the skull color palette it's tricky because on one hand stone features in close proximity to water would naturally foster the growth of moss and the more green palette might flow better with the rest of the mountain however the darker palette might fit the spooky theme better and the color of rocks can get soooo dark when they get wet so it also makes sense

    I think the mossy-stone palette for the skull will work best, especially with the waterfall out of the eye. The darker palette is cool, but to me it seems more like it'd be the burnt skull of some massive creature that was killed there. With the mossy look, it feels more like a natural part of the landscape that was maybe carved into it a very long time ago and then reclaimed over many centuries.

      Yeah, Bedrock players giving advice to Java players is a thing. Bedrock trident economics are weird.
      On Java it's strictly an equipment drop with no way to manipulate, except via looting on the sword.

    one of my favorite parts of hermitcraft is the diversity in everyone’s builds and aesthetics every season. cottagecore, futuristic, modern, etc it’s all so cool and detailed and i thoroughly enjoy seeing how the process works and watching things evolve and come into place. i love when you visit bases and see everything, especially as someone who has trouble watching everyone’s videos and staying focused

    I love you doing the shading on just one eye so that we have something to compare it to easily - with some of the subtler changes, it can be harder for our untrained eyes to see, but the comparison of the untouched one right next to it makes it a lot more obvious the effects you're pulling off!

  • @bethanymango5577

    I feel like the darker palette for the skull would add to the dark/creepy vibe you’re going for. However, some leaves and moss would also make the skull blend into the mountain quite well; it’ll make the skull feel like it’s been there for awhile and no one knows how/who made it and that will also make it feel a little mysterious and eerie in a sense. I think a mix of the two block palettes would look really cool and fit into the theme you’re going for in your build. I love how well the base is coming along, keep up the good work 👍♥

  • @anthonypoirier1156

  • @miniciominiciominicio
    @miniciominiciominicio Місяць тому +1

    Gem, this is my favourite episode of your season 10 so far. It felt like... a warm hug from your favourite person. You've been spending so much time with your usual -suspects- cherry mountain high energy hermits and I really appreciated the tours of the chill vibes of some of my favourite hermits - notably False and Beef.
    Nicely done on helping out Cleo with their backed up hoppers. I'm glad we got to see their base from your perspective!
    And I'm so glad you visited xB because he's been going around asking other hermits 3 questions and you coming to him was perfect! Plus you got to get to know him a little better and I loved how you both have built angler fish. I'm glad he got to tour your base a little as well!
    Now, this is my favourite episode NOT because of others, but because of your progress on the skull. I know that I need to trust the process but it's been... needing some love for some time and wow you have done so much to it in just this one episode. I also love you using your utility poles as a perch to look at your build from afar. ^_^ The texturing to create darker spots where there should be shadows is always impressive and you've nailed the eye socket. Plus the flowing water from the eye? The mossy blocks under the flowing water? UGH I LOVE IT SO MUCH.
    I'm excited to hear that your plans will have the mouth of the skull be the entrance. I know a lot of this is based on Dredge but your base reminds me so much of The Secret of Monkey Island (the 1990 version for PC MS-DOS), my favourite point and click adventure game from my childhood. If you're curious and/or want some possible inspiration, search for "The Secret of Monkey Island 1990 poster" and then click on images. It'll be the first result.
    Thanks for using your massive viewership to shoutout to your underviewed fellow hermits. This is exactly the kind of thing I like to see hermits do. The underviewed hermits do it all the time though obviously the massively viewed hermits need no help from them. But it's what I love about Hermitcraft and the sense of community between all of you. You don't have to be best friends and in each others' episodes all the time but some interactions here and there is lovely to see.

    Glow lichen would be a great choice for illuminating the skull. The light is really subtle and blends great into the natural bits. I recently used it on a big tree and I think it's worth trying. Love your episodes!

    I’ve only watched a handful of hermit craft seasons, and the first two I watched (6-7 I think) I never actually branched out further then watching mumbo and grian. I skipped season 8 (for some reason) and only watched half of 9, but this time, I have REALLY branched out, and watch about half of our hermits, if not a little more! I’ve fallen in love with the dynamics and relationships, and I don’t think I ever realized how many of these guys are inspiration for the other hermits! Falling in love with all of it more and more every episode

  • @IAmTheNobodyYT

    I love the shaders you use to show the base sometimes! They are so intense and so different from the usual minecraft shaders, but the atmosphere they create is insane! And it fits the whole base area so perfectly! I can't wait to see what the whole area is gonna look like in those shaders in a few months from now!

    For the skull you should use both pallets. The light pallet for most of the skull, and the dark pallet for around where the water flows to give the impression of wet rock

  • @5aturndays
    @5aturndays Місяць тому +6

    i think the skull would look great with some froglights inside the lower eye lid to light them up at night! maybe under the little water pond (?), or around it? and maybe, while inside the skull, you could use a noteblock + ghast head to make it seem like you can hear the skull crying? it's a bit silly, but i think it could spook some people while they're checking it out

  • @junafrerichs8003
    @junafrerichs8003 Місяць тому +6

    Idea: make the skull kind of mossy and rusted so it looks sort of mysteriously ancient and abandoned and taken over by nature. You could have some grass patches here and there, some water (like already added, and some leaves and vines maybe. I think that would be really cool! Maybe sort of like a ruin.

  • @june_0703

    I can really see you having fun this season, Gem, because of how interaction heavy the episodes you have uploaded so far. I really like your builds from season 8 and 9 but I love how you are experimenting this season and having aesthetics far off from your personality is something I find fresh. I LOVE the interactions with other hermits because I get excited seeing you from their POV too. Please keep them coming! 💚

  • @EmilyGDesign
    @EmilyGDesign Місяць тому +1

    For the skull, can you do both palettes? You can use the darker one near the bottom to make it pop, add shadow, and make it more ominous as you're walking through, but the upper half is mossy, worn, and understated in comparison.
    ETA: I think a cave pond on the opposite side of skull river would be a wonderful way to connect your base to the crack!!

  • @outcast5785
    @outcast5785 Місяць тому +1

    I 100% Think the skull would look better mossy, not only would it blend into the terrain better, it also matches the surrounding bases ideas with nature, plus I think it would look cool with a big tree on top

    Had a thought about the skull - I think light in the eyes might look out of theme. I think light on the brow would highlight that there’s a dark recess there - and fit in with the cute-gloom-core vibe!
    Something natural like glow lichen (light level 7) could do the trick, or something like hanging lights from a “happy building” (like a cozy cottage on stilts) that partially obscures the skull would lend it some more ominousness through contrast!
