My attempt at a minecraft thumbnail

I've Got It
I decided to give making a thumbnail a try, and this was the result, it took about 45 mins(max) and I've never sued blender before. I think it turned out all right, but I was wondering what you guys think? :)

It looks nice, honestly I wouldn't spend longer than 10 minutes on a thumbnail myself, but as you had to work with blender this amount of time is understandable.

The only part I dislike is the flat text. You've put the effort in to create a nice large 3D minecraft character. I feel like some 3D text would go nicer.

I thought the same thing, but after that much time in Blender, I got sick of looknig at the interface XD
 
Why did you SUE BLENDER? What did they ever do to you!?

It looks good man, now remove that text, jump in Photoshop and add some 3d text :). Good job.
 
In Gimp you can go to "Filters" "Light and Shadow" and then "Drop Shadow" and adjust it how you like, just in case you didn't know. :)

First attempt? If so it's GREAT! Really :) As others have said.. The flat text is a bit boring/bland/kind of an eyesore (don't mean to be harsh!). Honestly though, good job! They'll only get better trust me :D Look at some of my first thumbnails and you'll see that they were awful compared to my most recent ones :P
 
I adjusted the brightness and fixed the text, though I did all that in blender and forgot to align everything properly. Is this the kinda text you guys wanted to see though?

It's good! You don't have to use blender to make text look nice though (especially for just thumbnails). I've only even once used blender once and that was for my YT banner (you can see it in my sig also..) Good job though dude :)
