that boot kiiinda looks like a blob? its not really as sharp as the rest of the skin.

also the chest bit of armor feels lill too contrasted?

will retouch that. i love the contrasted style in the armor though. do you mean by the contrasted is it the whole armor or only the chest?

face could be blended lill better, and the hair could do with a major redo

work on it. but the hair? what do you mean by major redo? you mean by giving more shadows and highlight? i try that, but it looks weird when i tried it. i think it looks fine as it is right now. the hair wrap is really weird to deal with.

how about this?

added more details to the hair, smoother shading on the face, and lessen the contrast on the chest. i am not sure yet how to fix that blop looks on the boots. i only lessen the contrast on the bottom part of it.

well it's looking good, but you kinda need to work around and try something else to that hair doesn't have that weird mirroring effect on the back, the upper-most bit of the chestplate looks like it could use another go, being lot less shiny because you gotta take into account the shadow that the head and hair would cast on it, and since war3 assumes light falls directly from above, i think you get my meaning.

boots could perhaps be made clearer if there wasn't like.. virtually the same hunk of metal on the thigh portion.. there has to be some separation, but i'm not sure if you want to change stuff there

the problem is that when i import the image and put Textures\Arthas into the custom path in game it shows default Arthas model with the hammer. Any solutions?

my mistake i think. i fix the path, you should rewrite the path into Textures\Arthas.blp

looks old...mouth lines are too bold which causes to look old actually...overall no way close to heroes of the storm face.

inspired by many variant of arthas design such as HotS, WoW and people's Fan Art.

i did make it with no intention copying 100% of the concept. i just took most of the arthas concept as an inspiration without intention on 100% copying the original concept. i just use it since this skin is initially was based on the WoW arthas concept before, so to stay still like on previous concept, i took many reference on how blizzard make their arthas. this one is a mix from many arthas reference that i found on google.

that face is just random face that i made. :p
(i do want him to look more older a bit.)

i can't really critique my own work, so thank you for your words.
that mouth is an easy fix, i will update it soon.

EDIT : Updated?

This one is awesome, but it would be better if the cape didn't cover the entire shoulderpad since it looks really weird, I also feel you could wrap the scarf/cape arround the chest/breastplate a bit better, so that you leave some space for him to have soething like a neck while also keeping the essence of the cape going arround.

thanks darkfang :)

the cape on the shoulder pad is following wow arthas concept. since it was the initial idea when i made the previous skin, i try to follow the same concept.
the scarf and the breastplate could be nice suggestion, but to be honest that part is way too small to visible ingame, and in the portrait the scarf is not showing much.

i consider to do the change if more people pointed it as a flaw that really need to be changed. thank you for the suggestion
