Sin'dorei300: Nice surprise, but the nearer tusk needs to stand out more.
Also, have u got permission from -Grendel?

Sin'dorei300: Nice execution!

 

[Heinvers]

Interesting. Looks good

 

[Stanakin]

The large version is really very nice, too bad it doesn't work as well when icon-sized. (still a good icon, though)

[EDIT] I've always found the rule that you require permission for an icon based on a model edit with ingame textures that are blizzard's work rather ridiculous.

 

[Forsaken]

Wow, it's really good icon!

 

[A Void]

Looks great! You are talented, you should work at Blizzard'. 5/5

 

[Lichkings slave]

i just dont like the black backround dat much, although i geuss its about opinion, still epic icon!

Is it even a rule? I don't remember there being a rule to make an icon for another model (you're not editing the model in anyway, and only the icon is associated with the model, not the other way around). Especially when the icon is 100% freehand.

In the past, I'm pretty sure people made icons for models (especially in the requests section) without consulting the model-maker first.

@Mad: That is a really awesome icon. Sadly, the icon can't show off all the awesome details of the LP, but it looks great and fits well with the model + the wc3 style.

Thank you

I spotted this when I uploaded the icon;

Public Domain
Icons In some extremely exceptional cases (when author cannot be contactedand someone else posts an icon for a resource which lacks one posted by the author), it may be accepted. DO NOT abuse this rule (especially if the author is actually active but not visiting the site daily). Inactivity period: 2 months.

Congratulations! Looking as good as I was hoping it would; glad you put it out there (since the model is so prevalent).

I, too, must decry the claim that he needs -Grendel's permission... It's one thing if artists work collaboratively, or work using other's work as a base/stock (like geomerging from other people's geosets, or copy/pasting each other's textures). Permissions make sense there. However, this guy (essentially) could've gotten inspired by -Grendel's model & decided to paint a big picture of his face. All of a sudden he needs permission for that? it's all in-game texture (custom mesh), but it's hand-drawn. Huh?

 

[Kazeon]

IMO, it's very warcraftish.. good job

 

[Heinvers]

Looks good indeed, although I agree with Sin'dorei, that the nearest tusk needs to stand out more. Wow for the icon anyway

 

[Sin'dorei300]

Icon Submission Rules

Before uploading a corresponding icon for another author's resource, you have to acquire that author's permission.
If the author has been inactive for a period of 6 months and beyond, you can upload an icon without permission.

The Rules....

 

[Heinvers]

Rules can be changed.

Yep.
That's not important now, he already has -Grendel's approval anyway

 

[DESTROYER123]

Wow.
So cool.
Btw can I ask a question?
Did you painted its skin blue and then used light shadow to create he light or used a different colour?
5/5

Thank you

I always start to paint in greyscale to get my values right and then apply a color layer.

Wow, nice!
Thanks for the answer!

 

[Sin'dorei300]

I'd suggest u to remove the teeth in front of the tusk.
Other than that it's fine.

Sweet Fixed it.

 

[Heinvers]

It looks even better now. Good point Sin'dorei.

 

[Kyrbi0]

My favorite part is how he provides pictures of his progress ("old - old - new"). Too few artists do that, and I think it really does a lot to show how much better the existing one is (especially once Refreshes have lost the original to the sands of time). The only thing he could do better would be to date it all.

 

[JesusHipster]

I love it. Great job.

 

[JollyD]

very cool

 

[Chaosy]

wonderful.. 5/5 from me. I'd say that this is fairly close to a dc.

 

[lokharke]

Even though the tusk could have used an angle, i still think it is 5/5 resource. clear in concept and art.

 

[LISBOAH]

Thanks for making this.

 

[Cheshire]

wow, what I like about the model is the character it has, and you really captured that. great artwork.
