The Dark One

While listening to Ozzy i began to do this early today and after some hours of work with paint.net, it was finished, some parts need work, the legs example. Also there were some nice runes at the lower body, but the model had retarded wrap soi had to make it something more simple. Named it The Dark One, cause i was totally out of good ideas :D

This isn't Useful/Simple in my eyes, there's a lot of good quality here. A lot of previous criticisms in the other reviews still apply but overall this is a good looking texture with a cool premise and some really good execution, in the hair and...

Kimberly: Hi Gar, this skin needs some improvement....The shading is rather weak and blurry... You might want to define some areas abit more solidly and sharp. Just go over it abit more in a slower and steady pace with a less blurry/soft brush and refine it more. Atm is abit too monotone and dark. I also think its needs more teamcolour. As for now it will be rejected until updated, sorry.

Dentothor: ok this is definatley a whole lot better. But the shading needs to be more defined on the chest and on the lower body. also, dont have that colour of hair. it confuses the Team colour of the unit. Which brings me to another point... this needs a lot more team colour, rather than what you have already. but other than that, its looking better. it just needs a bit more.

PM SENT/EDIT2 by kim:
Hi Gar, good with the updates. Sorry for the slow reply, family issues going on :(...

I do think its abit too dark still, and needs more TC like the legs. This is require alpha to add teamcolour. Refinement is still needed, However... when i have time I will redraw over some parts of the skin to show you the suggestions I have offered may conclude to for me to approve.You however have every right to ask the other skin mods for help and suggestions :)

Cheers, sorry for the delay.

Kim: Perm rejected due to no update.

A ninja dryad?
It looks nice, don't get me wrong, but it needs highlights!

Awesome, looks much less monotonous now. But, please do something with the black on her face. It's just... Black. Add some highlights to at least indicate it's a specific material. At the moment it's just a block of color. I don't even know if you wanted it to be metal, skin, leather or cloth(or something else). I'm talking about the bottom part of the face here. Also, perhaps a tiny red glowing dot for eyes?

The face wrap makes the eyes odd, so i had problems with that, and in the beginning i planned to put some kind of metal part on her jaw but i couldnt invent anything, so it's like abyss or something, i'll see about it

Edit:
Oh srsly.. But Textures\Dryad.blp is being used by the portrait.. Blizz wants to piss me off i see

Lol another epic portrait fail by blizzard :D feels good to see i ain't the only one it pisses off lol.

You might wanna let the face's white skin dive a little more into the abyss, so that abyss is more obvious, imho.
