Minecraft Fan Art - Ghast

Another Minecraft monster piece.  Since the creatures in Minecraft are so simplistic, they allow for a liberal amount of interpretation when rendering them in a realistic way.  The Ghast is a bizarre entity, in both it's appearance and behavior.  It appears to be constantly weeping, so it's eyes are cavernous and always flowing with tears.  The mouth is a permanent frown, with a hair lip, that leads up it's face to an ever furrowed brow.  Though only 7 tentacles are visible, they have 9.  The Ghast seems to be trapped, both within itself and the Nether.  It will not aggressively pursue you, but when in range it will attack.

Minecraft Fan Art - Enderman

They stay frozen as long as you keep staring at them... Don't blink.

This Minecraft monster is my favorite.  This drawing was done not long after the announcement that Enderman would be a new mob.  As a result, I had no idea they had a mouth.  The forearms and hands are bulky, yet with slim tendril-like protuberances for easier manipulation of blocks.  The torso is contorted, as though years of scar tissue have replaced whatever slender frame it once had.  There is a mass on it's chest, whether that is it's heart or an Ender pearl is not clear.  I tried to render it to convey that it would have a difficult time physically moving, thus the necessity for teleportation.
