【Uther Marshal Paladin Version】

[paladinjst]

i like this concept of Samwise -Marshal Paladin or Uther Lightbrighter .

So I decide to make one - with in-game textures .
now here's some WIPs
still working ~

 

[chobibo]

Great! The cloth looks good on the armor too.

 

[paladinjst]

update with the face . the color of beard maybe not the final version . also i will add some effects with blue color for the eyes .

 

[PurgeandFire]

Nice job. It is coming along nicely!

 

[Maker]

Please finish it, looks great!

 

[D a w n]

look good so far, but I'd like to suggest some different textures for you that you might want to take into consideration:
1st. right now the colour of thebird head is clashing with the wings. I'd suggest using textures\sentinel for the golden wings. Additionally you could also consider using textures\siegeenginehead for the bird's head
2nd: I think it would be cool if you'd use units\creeps\lordgarithos\lordgarithos or units\creeps\humanbattleship\humanbattleship for the lion head

i need ur advice .

 

[chobibo]

Hi again, will you be adding the golden highlights(I dunno what its called) on the helmet's wings? It looks like a fin without that. Still, it looks great.

The contest is over?

 

[paladinjst]

The contest is over?

i know it . so i created the thread in the modeling forum . i send this info here just for getting attention with the contesters

 

[Deolrin]

Oh wow.
I wanted to do that.

It's coming along very nicely. I really hope you finish it.
What texture are you using for the face and beard? Is that Human Mage and Elf Villager Woman?

 

[Anknaton]

Great! Looks awesome at all! Keep the good work!

 

[JokeMaster]

Well i honestly must say that it is well made but the blood elf coloristic ruins it, no ntah you did something wrong or something i just always disliked the bloodelf models from wc3 that copper- gold just makes my eyes hurt

 

[Kyrbi0]

Wow, this is really quite excellent. I'm impressed; if you can follow Concept Art this well, I oughta get off my duff & draw better. If you're interested.

Really love the creative texture choices, and the swooping cloth is fun. I agree, though, on the minor texture clash on the eagle, left pauldron, etc.

the face is footman's .
cause the face shadows are fitable when he wear a helmet .
then i replace the eye's mesh .ur know , the priest and human mage has almost the same UV layout . so i combine these two textures with material , to show that a human eye with blue glow .
of course after then i would add some effect to the eyes .

the beard is made from archmage and human paladin boss 2 . at the first , i wanna use the sorceress or jaina's but both of them are not showing the right color . then i tried the mortar team . the color is good but it has no alpha channel . so finally i used the archmage and teamcolor orange together .
the final version will be the archmage texture with correct color geoset animations .

Well i honestly must say that it is well made but the blood elf coloristic ruins it, no ntah you did something wrong or something i just always disliked the bloodelf models from wc3 that copper- gold just makes my eyes hurt

at first i wanna find some golden material textures . but finally i must use this . cause it has a lot of fitable part for this style .

if drawing a texture for him , that would be nicer and closer to the concept , actually i can do this . but i like the in-game style . cause it will be smaller (without textures), easiler to using and closer to the WC3 style .

when u create a map . u can import many in-game style models . for example , here's a screenshot , all of the models are done without custom textures , but this map is still less than 8M .

Oh believe me, you're preaching to the choir; I am a strong proponent of using in-game textures (even if they clash a bit), for exactly the reasons you described.

By the way, are all of those on THW? I am straining to see if there's any I should request from you... Don't see any Trolls.

there are no trolls and taurens and undeads and ogres ... i put the models in races . i just imported nice in-game style model with group of races . when i started to import the troll race . it was more than 8M . so i stop importing .

most of the models come from the mighty hiveworkshop , some from xgm , wc3c and GA ...and i did many human heroes by myself . such as sir lothar , king varian , tirion fordring and so on . and i also made some WOW style units . less parts of them was edited by me , base on some models to make new style . for example , i edited the knight made by wojia10502 for a in-game texture version . (of course i get his permission) .

i am just modeling warcraft things with interest , creating model for myself and imported my own map then amused myself .

 

[SuPa-]

Yeah don't do that, that's basically spamming.

 

[JokeMaster]

Link to the paladin under the witch hunter plz. XD ( almost middle of the screen)

that is Tirion Fordring made by me . i put some screenshot on the thread of modeling contest 25# before .

http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/2410712-post512.html

it's still needed to add some effects . maybe i will release both Uther and Fordring when i finish this work .

 

[paladinjst]

update ~
the character mesh almost done , maybe i will add a cape for him . and just need to make the hammer and tome . and i like both of the two in the concept . so i will add them more details .

 

[Kyrbi0]

While I'm worried about the bulkiness of his upper-body (esp. compared to his lower-body), I have to say it's looking really nice, very true-to-form.

After this, you should consider doing... things.

 

[Sellenisko]

This one is going to be epic one.

 

[JokeMaster]

Hmm from the shown shots i think his legs are a bit too short in proportion to arms, and maybe a bit too thin.

u r right , and i found the same problem when i released the pics . i had changed that already . it will be shown in next update .

 

[paladinjst]

update

finish the hammer . don't blame the skeleton style with the paladin . i hardly final a closer texture to add the hammer's detail . maybe a paladin with ornament of skeleton will show that he's a undead killer .

 

[Anknaton]

Nice looking model at all... Keep the good work!

 

[chobibo]

The Hammer texture detail is great. It would be great if you'd add like a crusader skirt, I that would fit the theme.

 

[paladinjst]

update

done the tome of paladin ... it's close to the concept . now all the meshes are almost done . just need some work for the animations and effects . i think the animation of origin paladin should fit this well . the effects should be attach on the eyes , hammer and book ... and maybe it will show a special effect when he cast a spell .

 

[Deolrin]

I'm not a fan of that map book with the weird runes. It looks strange and out of place.

 

[Kyrbi0]

Even from a distance? I mean, the regular Paladin has the word "SAM" in big block letters, but it totally doesn't even matter (no one can read it anyway). Just suggests the presence of text, is all.

well , do u have any better suggestion with the UV of book ? i just want to add some details and make it very different from other books .

 

[paladinjst]

update final mesh
edit the UV of book pages with new look . and this is the final mesh . next update will be animations and effects .

 

[Maker]

Looks great but the handle part of the hammer looks quote long, it is a one handed hammer right?

 

[Deolrin]

I think it should be a two-handed one, like the original Paladin. Would be kinda silly that the epic version of the paladin uses a smaller weapon.

IS IT? Think about it. He's SO epic, he wields a two-handed weapon with merely one hand..

Paladinjst, great work. Lookin' really detailed, epic, and heroic. Still kinda feel like the Blood Elven armor has a bit of an orange-y quality compared to the rest of the "golden" armor, but what can you do? If you can do Humans this well, I'm scared to see what a Troll looks like.

 

[Freddyk]

This model looks very nice, congratulations.

Here are just a few things that could be improved in my opinion:

- Proportion:
I feel there is something wrong with his legs, they're too long and the knee is too high. I suggest moving his boots and feets up until the top of the boots meets the bottom of the knee.
Also enlarging his boots could help balance the body, currently his chest is bulky while his legs are a bit frail.

- Texture:
Compared to the rest, the hammer is too much high res while the eagle wings and the hammer handle are too much low res.

- Cape:
The back being a symmetry of the front is not logical, you should think about the whole cape as a single piece of cloth.

i'll make the head of hammer bigger .

actually i dislike the orange-y quality style either . but the blood elf 's texture should quite be useful for the marshal's details ... i can't find a better one to replace it . maybe i should use geoset colors to compare them well .

and a troll with a marshal armor set ? that should be funny . i guess u like the troll race , right ? haha like me i love the human medieval style . when i started to make wc3 models , i haven't done any other races expect the human . i'm not sure i could make a troll well .

ur suggestion is quite helpful for me , i'll change a lot with it , thanx

 

[paladinjst]

finished ~ the runes of hammer have shining effect . the glow of eyes will be brighter when he's talking . i wanna add a texture animation with hammer . it worked but could not be saved when it reopen with war3 model editor ( i scaled the model to 3 times with map editor, so the effects of eye could not be seen clearly in screenshot )

 

[Anknaton]

Awesome appearance! I love it... Keep the good work!

 

[Deolrin]

He looks incredible. Great joke.
If I could suggest something, I think the book will look better with pages from Guldan's or the Warlock's book.
Also, the hammer's handle could be shorter and have a different, more high-res texture.
And finally, maybe make him a bit wider? The original paladin is very wide; Your epic paladin looks a bit thinner than that.

 

[chobibo]

Wow, that looks great.

thanx for ur advice ~ this paladin is almost as wide as paladin arthas . the handle of hammer is surely lower quailty than the hammer's head , i just don't have a better idea for it . the pages of book was used by city doodas book . it will be diferent with any other origin paladins .

then i remember that , u had also made a concept by samwise - the human marks man , almost like daelin proudmoore . but the resource got deleted . why don't u remake him ? make him closer to the concept and more details with in-game style .
i'm sure u will hand it as well .
the samwise (sam dider) is the chief art designer of warcraft III . i think there will be more and more models from his arts .

 

[PROXY]

The beard texture is to low quality compared to the rest of it, use the mortar team one.

But the texture useage is incredible <3

 

[Deolrin]

Yes, but it will look better with the Orc Warlock or Gul'dan texture because it is more detailed.

I agree, you really ought to do that, Paladinjst.

It was a joke model for April Fools.
If you opened it in-game or in a 3D Viewer, you would see that it is just a 2D sprite.
I don't know if this works, but here's a link to it in the 3D viewer:

i used the warlock book texture for the tome's cover and the pages just says ' Ted ' so i used the city doodas texture for the page .

the marksman was just an april joke ? haha like the war3 panda brewmaster , it also apeared the news in april fool , but it had come true in the later days . so why u can not do the same thing ? i really wish u can do this

 

[Deolrin]

i used the warlock book texture for the tome's cover and the pages just says ' Ted ' so i used the city doodas texture for the page .

I meant the "outside" part of the paper, not the inside. Right now it looks monotone and terrible. The Warlock's book is yellow, creased and interesting.

this is the orc warlocks' cover , i just cover the skeleton in the book center .
i like this book cover too . i'm not a english native speaker , so my expression maybe not clearly .
