Any ideas or suggestions on this skin

[madcat2]

i've been trying to build a peon werewolf but it isnt coming out to well any suggestions would be a great help...

(Note: i only have worked on it for 2 hours so dont yell at me on how undetailed it is so far.)

looks more like a strawman to me, its probally not the best model for a werewolf but you could make the fur a bit more dark and greyish and needs to be less blury

 

[madcat2]

yeah i agree. i did make the fur to blurry...

Ok, is that burn and dodge? Let's let them burn in hell and see if they can dodge that.

It looks horrible: not even like real fur. Real fur is not hairy: it is smooth. It looks like Bigfoot. Real fur is dark and small, not in long strands.

i redid it awhile back never updated this thread tho but then wulf said it's to plain of a skin and it would look brown from game view.

im sure i already stated on this in the resource section.
Basically, DEFINE it, drawing fur all over something wont make it look a werewolf. Fur all goes in a certain way, like how hair parts, its all flows in a certain way and with the body.
Change his clothes at least, to some lumberjack sorta stuff all tore up.
Add something to his feet, he shouldn't be wearing the same feet and its very little change.
DONT DO IT ALL IN ONE SOLID COLOUR, add in some reds and greys and some other stuff, it all being in one caramel like colour just makes it look like a brownish blob ingame.

Yeah i could have sworn this thread was dead because i stop working on the skin because it was a bad idea to begin with.

And i cant really upgrade the skin i kind of deleted it.

Your following the original wrap of the Peon too much
You need to move away from the basic outline of the skin and explore ways you can make it your own

You can just close this thread i forgot the skin was put in my delete bin and i deleted it along with 39 other things

Even though you scrapped the project, this is still helpful advice for the future. Read the tutorial on how to make hair in the 2d art tutorials section, it is very well done and helped me get good at doing hair.
