The Creeper Reimagined

Thought I'd take a stab at doing some Minecraft fanart of the Creeper.

So, I think in reality, a creature who blows itself up as an attack is really silly. My take on it is that the Creeper actually shoots extremely corrosive enzyme from it's mouth which breaks down material so fast it reacts explosively. These enzymes could be produced in a gland that resides in the Creepers gut (hence the slight glow).

Instead of gunpowder, you'd actually be harvesting this gland that, combined with the right materials, would mimic the explosive destruction a Creeper possesses.

Man, I'm a huge nerd...

Aside from that, I added the tail and mane as my own stylistic flair. I think it goes well with the overall look. Also, I thought hearing the hissing through large, sharp fangs was much creepier.
