Rejected HerobrineStatue [Hard]

[balls_12]

Map Name:- 'HerobrineStatue' | 65 Jumps | 5 Checkpoints | Map by:- Repuloh (me) | /plot v Repuloh | Difficulty:- Hard

I have now fixed the way people can just pearl to the end at the last screenshot. I put glass there so no one can pearl to the end

-1. This type of map is considered a 3D pixel art, which isn't allowed.

Really? I didn't know that. Isn't "3d pixel art" a bit of a contradiction?

I don't understand it much either, that's just the terminology I've heard used (I'll see if I can find the post I got the phrase from). It'd still most likely be denied for other theme-related reasons, though.

looks really cool but like mcbyt said, this has to be an instant rejection. There is no pixel art allowed (they used to that’s why there are some) map looks cool tho

Pixel art???? It’s a statue. What do you want from this?

 

[balls_12]

Also how am I supposed to make a statue when it’s apparently considered “3D pixel art” ?
Should I have not made the build in the first place or what. Sorry if i'm sounding mean or rude

you shouldn’t really base your build off of something in minecraft because building pixel for pixel is pixel art, and making it not pixel art for a minecraft character is pretty hard

I think what distinguishes normal 3D from 3D pixel art is the presence of depth. Your build has the exact same dimensions all around, as it's just blocky, but a normal build would have been chiseled to have rounder edges and look more fluid. I understand you're modelling it after Minecraft, but there are so many of this type of build that staff have said they are no longer viewed as attractive.

I don't think 3d pixel art should be a problem considering there still are minecraft mob maps added to this day, where the build is exactly the same to the mob except larger

 

[balls_12]

Also would it even look nice if I didn’t do it all blocky? I think me trying to smooth out the corners would make it look worse

Well... I think the most recent one was your map, Ravager, right? They're not really supposed to be accepted anymore. It's just that the old ones are still on the logs.

why’d u give my quote a disagree?

Sorry I removed the disagree. I was just wondering how this is considered 3D pixel art. If I had rounded out the corners I think it would look even worse imo and what u said “instant rejection”, I was just confused on how this is an “instant” rejection when IMO I think it looks good. Sorry once again :/

It could be done well, in my mind. And either way, it would make the map much more unique and original. A map with literally the EXACT SAME BUILD as yours was submitted and denied recently. https://manacube.com/threads/herobrine-medium.46491/

Hello Repuloh,

It was brought to my attention (by the above post) that a majority of this build was copied from a previous submission.
For that reason, this submission will be rejected. Please refrain from copying builds in the future!

The statue concept was unique, but please execute it better next time.

Have a nice day,
Kristina
