Queen Azshara

This bundle is marked as director's cut. It exceeds all expectations and excels in every regard.
A texture I was working on with Sellenisko. He is gone apparently though.

The Hive Workshop Skins moderation team has decided to grant this texture a Director's Cut rating. Congratulations! Excellent job! Thanks for sharing :) Here's the in-game screenshot.
Lovely, however, if I may, the back of the head seems unfinished compared to the rest of the skin/scales and it would be nicer for the white texture stuff on the head annexes to connect smoother with the green and red.
don't expect too much from SD graphics xD

Much better than the grunt one. Would gladly vote for this instead :D

Don't get me wrong, both are masterfully painted... It's just most of the details get lost. Portrait might look beautiful but the model is mid from the in-game view. I too tried to not really do a "high end render" with my entry, a compromise of sorts.

Good luck with your work, to me it just doesn't really fit the existing models, grunt mostly.

My, My, Yaser. He has been quite a sport recently and while i like the grunt than queen Azshara (which, hey It took a while that you make this in 2 attempts). You know, everyone have strong spot on WoW-related skin so no surprise here but what else can you pull an Azshara, i doubt Naga Sea Witch would pull this concept and Siren is only closest thing for her.

Yezzy, congratulation. You got probably your first DC :xxd: but holy spaghetti people stawp giving more DC to Sirens (4 of them already while a harpy don't even get to join the cool club), I'm not argue about this skin but the general page of DC is filled with Sirens. Ya gotta need expand more taste on different models than just fish.

Congratulations on a well deserved DC!
Abour your grunt, the issue is not about the high Quality of it, but the weird contrast between the highly detail and crips parts, and the blurred, blobish, kinda abstract parts of it, not ti mention the randomness of the color choices of those parts (i Guess they're inspired by heinvers korkron skin?)

Thanks Tom! Yup, definitely my first DC. :xxd:

Thank you! I get what you mean. The outcome was a bit crowded. And no actually, I wasn't aware of that skin by Hein.
