AR's WIP Models

[A.R.]

These will very definitely get finished. Definitely.

Starting off: the Duelist, originally intended to be the Tier-1 melee unit for a faction of ruthless city-dwelling Blood Elves. Might get promoted to a Hero, we'll see Currently 758 Polygons.

Bonus: rough, scribbly Painter concept:

Definitely

Sure, this will work as intended : P

Cool wip for now. Would love to texture that once it's released.

Cant wait to see it textured. Always appreciate your high quality work with few polies and magnificent textures whilst keeping the warcraft-style perfectly.

Cheers guys

Quick update on the texture, a few things need fixing but I could probably move onto animation at this point and polish it afterwards.

The texrute work is good. It's not exactly too warcraft'ish, but it's good.

Oh hey, it's no big deal. It's not like you have any other unfinished models...

Woah hey, that was quick. Why should I expect anything less, though?

I have to admit, I really loved the mesh but I'm not feeling that texture. Or perhaps better to say "I agree with JesusHipster"; it's really excellent as usual but edging further into "not-so-Warcrafty" to me. Not sure what it is; each individual component (pauldron, sword, chest, skirt, head, etc) looks 'right', but all together (& especially lined up next to the other in-game Blood Elves), it just seems really glaring to me somehow. Far be it from me to offer artistic critique but... Too detailed (chest esp.)? Not enough high contrast?

Once again, however, you have aced the "cool concept" department; "Duelist" as a T1 Blood Elf dude is just too sick. Some modelers here don't feel a good name/backstory is important to a piece of art... But this is a great example of why that's wrong IMO.

Really nice headpiece and awesome arm... arm armor.

Welcome back!

i'm waiting
i want to use this model if this released.

about the texture, it looks fine. notice that A.R is trying to make most of his texture work fit with wc3 style.
and the same color tone as the other wc3 texture use.

some wc3 texture intend to have a blocky shading on the team color and black shading on some of the texture part. and a strong shadow & highlight. some of them also have really minor detail so it doesn't look fuzzy ingame with the usual RTS camera distance.

i think A.R pulled it really nicely with higher model & texture detail compared to the rest of the wc3 model. while also keeping it wc3 styled. i like the overall look of the model. keep up the good work~
