Wow this took a few back and forth a to notice the differences but even the ones that are the most similar are improved immensely by your fixes. I especially love both the skeletons paintings, but overall clarity is so much better.

I did mean to ask, of the two paintings where it seems to look out a window and one has a creeper and the other is similar bit seems to have some kind of plant, may I know what you interpreted the original plant to be and why that was such a big change in yours? To be honest, I'm not sure if it's a tree in the distance that yours is supposed to be :)

Glad you like my renditions!

When I made these paintings, I was mostly basing them off of the original paintings more than vanilla Minecraft's renditions, some of which have edits. With the plant one, for example, I based my plant on the original. In hindsight, I'm not a huge fan of how I've done the plant, and I might go back and tweak it or redo it to be more like Minecraft's.

Ah yours is definitely more true to that, I assumed from the originals it was just a potted plant in a window sill. Yours does look like some small tree on a white background! I think with such small space to work with it'll be difficult no matter what to communicate the original's image and you've done a great job with what you have, still much better than the original.
