Texturing Contest #25 - Dark Elves/Drow

[Archian]

@Mr.Goblin Great, Traggey is already making a new texture for the Druid of the Talon. So it's nice to see you're going with a diffrent model. And I must say, that the face (even in it's current state) is one of the best faces I've seen on the Eredar/Archimonde model. I like where you're going with it

@Traggey nice eye-candy there. Great use of the beard wrap. Keep it up!

 

[A.R.]

Pretty close to final, might do a few adjustments later (plus add the missing bits of the Sentinel texture which is used for various projectiles).

Also, grats Mr.Goblin on having your artwork (among others) featured by Blizz today!

WELL jeez thanks!

here's a new WIP... I lost at least 4 hours tying to make an interresting design for the top of his head, but with no real luck, the warping is just horrible... had to go for something simple... but ya know, I'll catch up with the details for the chest area and the robe

 

[Mechanical Man]

so, drow or dark elf, is a vicious evil dark skinned recolored of night elf version with much more spider theme?

i have a plan for it. WIP

Doesn't even need to be dark skinned and and spider themed. For example warhammer fantasy dark elves have pale skin and are more reptile oriented (snakes, lizards, hydras, dragons, ... )

 

[Sin'dorei300]

I'll give it a try.
Early WIP:

 

[Sclammerz]

I'll give it a try.
Early WIP:

Very realistic face! Great work, Sin!

And done a little work with her.

 

[Rence Kristoff]

Wow,thats nice Sin'dorei,but idk what unit is that (peace)

 

[Heinvers]

I am not certain if you've noticed this guys but you can also texture custom hive models if the vanilla ones don't suffice your needs.
Just a reminder in case you run into trouble with the in-game ones.

'love that Archimonde approach Mr.Goblin. Really pops that character out.

 

[Sclammerz]

Wow,thats nice Sin'dorei,but idk what unit is that (peace)

It's the Harpy, I think.

 

[Mr.Goblin]

Newest WIP cheers!

Sin'Dorei300, Sclammerz, A.R, Traguey = you guys... you guys rock!

 

[Hantoo]

Looks interesting, feeling like joining but I have no idea what is drow, all the contestant's entry confused me even more, so I will just just sit here and watch

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Experimenting!

Wikipedia is your friend, fam. ;P

Basically a dark/shadow elf; supposed to live underground & worships spiders & stuff. Think Drizzt Do'Urden (or the Shadow Elves from Heart of Storms mod)

 

[Sin'dorei300]

She apparently hasn't decided what to wear.

 

[Shar Dundred]

Going the nude way for extra points, Sin?

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Oh dear, you discovered my plan!
Yeah, i'm trying to bribe the judges in this way.
This hottie will blow their...mind, for sure!

 

[The_Silent]

Doubt I have time or the inspiration to participate.

Good luck to all of you!

 

[Mr.Goblin]

Good luck to all of you!

chicken....

bring it dawg! show us what you got!... I really want to see :O

 

[Shar Dundred]

This hottie will blow their...mind, for sure!

Hahahahahaha. For sure!

 

[Heinvers]

I know that I'll need higher bribery stuff than that
Do your best you blood elf!

The_Silent, chicken dinner, kuku plates.
Come one now, I know that you want it, I know that I want it, I know that you can : )

 

[The_Silent]

You deserve this.

 

[Just_Spectating]

pack up, The_Silent just won

 

[Heinvers]

Now that's something I've never expected. The vengeful chicken strikes again <3

 

[Shar Dundred]

DC for The_Silent

 

[Moy]

here's a tiny WIP, not sure if either I could continue or finish this.

 

[aeman]

hello

are other color than gray counts?

did he count

 

[Heinvers]

~Nightmare, You certainly should. It might yield some interesting results if you do.

Yes, ES games dark elves count as well. Just remember to make it unique and not just a bare copy of a certain character.

 

[aeman]

first wip. its weird to see pyromancer with blue color

can people define how gray the drow skin is?

 

[Misha]

this is very interesting so far

 

[NightStalker]

Can we just retexture any models we want?

 

[Heinvers]

That's what I said.

 

[NightStalker]

That's what I said.

Just to be sure, if I find the inspiration maybe I'd give it a shot with a mediocre texture

 

[Mr.Goblin]

Newest WIP... for Heinvers. Because he deserves it.

 

[aeman]

can alpha his tentacle

 

[Mr.Goblin]

can alpha his tentacle

can't I tried, makes 2 holes in his face. :O

 

[aeman]

can pyromancer color be blue instead of red

second wip ! trying to create his face and gauntlet

 

[Heinvers]

Try a darker tone of blue and make the scarf more visible.

 

[aeman]

Try a darker tone of blue and make the scarf more visible.

so blue pyromancer isn't weird?

 

[FireTiger]

Sorry guys. I can't finish my entry in time. I'm too busy. Good luck!

Managed to do some work.

 

[Shar Dundred]

Scary.

I like it!

 

[Deleted member 238226]

[Heinvers]

Wisdom and Sclammerz, pretty solid and well made wip's so far. Keep it up.
The list of entries has been updated.

Let's rock this contest : )

 

[Mr.Goblin]

Eeeeeeh, there it is... Archimond texture is a nightmare to work with, glad it's over. Good luck everyone!

Drow Hero = ressources link

edit = finished the mouth (because I forgot to texture it) + made the texture a tad brighter.

 

[Sclammerz]

oh, wow! Great work, Mr. Goblin!

 

[Mr.Goblin]

oh, wow! Great work, Mr. Goblin!

Thanks mate!

I forgot to paint the inside of the mouth :O I'll fix that tomorow. Too late to fix it right away.

 

[Deleted member 238226]

oh wow very nice mr.goblin

my quick wip for the cape.

 

[Deolrin]

Looks cool, Goblin. Seems a little bit too dark, but I guess that can't be avoided with a drow.
