Subnautica has some nice scenery, though for a painting I'd probably go with something like the safe shallows where there's plenty of sunlight, or maybe the underwater islands or the kelp forest.
MInecraft would have a lot of possibilities, particularly with some of the new terrain generation for mountains as well as the cherry tree biome that was recently added. However, with each world being generated randomly, there's no definitive scenes that would be instantly identifiable as Minecraft. So you'd have to rely on making the painting sufficiently blocky and/or replicating some of the terrain generation quirks like the occasional floating tree or lava flowing out the side of a hill and things like that.
I feel like the best way to do a Subnautica painting would be an absolutely gigantic black canvas with only the just enough hints of blue light in the centre to silhouette the diver and a big monster. Which isn't really practical for most purposes.
For minecraft I personally would go for [email protected] The server has some trully stunning builds that are quite distinct in design that they become recognizible.
The players share their world download on server resets so it can be explored and seen from different angles than the usual youtube videos.
Also they would be delighted to see their builds as a paiting.
