shiiK: First of all, I'm sorry it has taken so long to get to this skin.

This is pretty much a re-do of the original red dragon, but with a slightly more cartoony look. I think it could be useful if some improvements are made.

Most notably, you should make the horns look like horns, and not like stretched out scales. Secondly, some wrap issues on the ehad, generally, so try to work it out so it looks somewhat more wholesome. Lastly, work some with the tones to give it some more life. Some different shades of red incorporated into the scales would make them look more natural. Shadows on red tend to have a slightly green, slightly brpwn, undertone. Similarily, highlights tend to be yellow - reaching towards blue on strong highlights/shiny surfaces.

Ah, yeah, he means it can replace any dragon in addition to the Red Dragon. If I had the list easily available, I'd write down the other paths for you, but as I don't, it'll have to wait. I might forget, so I suggest somebody else fetch all the paths, and VictorZeitgeist should put them in the description. ;)

I'll get around to reviewing this sometime later, unless another moderator shows up. It's still a lot of room for improvement, though, so keep working on it, Victor. ;)

edit: Nobody answered my question about the preview yet... is there any specs that i should pay attention to when uploading the screenshot? Like size or format ? The format is .JPEG and size is... um... 700x550.

There has been some issues with the previews after swiching servers, so I suspect it's because of that. You could try saving the preview as a .PNG, though. That's what I use for my previews.

Pretty good re-skin from what I can tell, to bad the preview screens are all messed up for this skin right now, not sure what's up with that.

Looks very WC2 or Diablo I-esqu, the color pallet on this reminds me a lot of those games, and so does the general style this has. If you can get the previews working I could see this getting approved.

I understand... but i'm just trying to explain that it... you know... isn't my fault o.o
There's something wrong with the uploader or something.
Also,i can't see how can someone rate 3/5 on something they can't see either,so you have that x_x
Well,I'll try updating it again in a while,maybe tomorrow... just hope it works,this preview thing is really bugging me. Thanks anyway.
